Why did Wendy Williams move from New York to Florida?

Wendy's colleague, Miss Jones, explained on her online radio platform, that she had gone to Wendy's New York apartment house to check up on her. The doorman informed her that she was “a couple of months late” and that Wendy had long left for Florida.

Following Jones's expression of surprise, they informed her that she had gone to be in closer proximity to her family. She said:

"They said, ‘Well, you know what happened: she was getting better, she was coming around and then she started getting sick again.

Jones speculated that Wendy might have moved away after experiencing another setback in her health. She also referred to worries expressed by Williams' son, who stated that she may have been taken advantage of others in her social circle the previous year.

"Because her family’s in Florida, and people were coming in her circle that they weren’t familiar with — like, they couldn’t get access to her when they wanted — they moved her down to Florida. So she is allegedly down in Florida with her son recuperating.”

So, it seems Williams' family decided to have her move to Florida to easily gain access to her whenever she needed them. Fans can rest assured that she is finally in an ideal place and with the right people who can help her recuperate quickly.
