Wendy Williams’ ex slammed for ‘health’ comment after her psych check

Wendy Williams’ ex-husband is being slammed for seemingly shading the daytime talk show host after she was hospitalized for a mental health check.

Kevin Hunter shared a selfie on Instagram Tuesday wearing Louis Vuitton sunglasses — a luxury that fans pointed out are a result of Williams’ hard-earned cash — and boasted about his “blessings” and “health.”

“Bday vibes ALL WEEK‼️💪🏾💪🏾🎉..so THANKFUL to the MOST HIGH GOD for ALL BLESSINGS…I tried to tell ‘EM ..HEALTH IS WEALTH ..not MONEY‼️..GOD said ‘They’ll LEARN’‼️‼️‼️HAVE A BLESSED DAY🙏🏿🙏🏿💪🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾,” he captioned the photo.

Hunter’s followers immediately went into attack mode, calling out his insensitivity to the “How You Doin?” host and her health.

“It’s the petty post for me. He knows Wendy is sick…,” commented one follower.

“This caption is tack [sic] af! Just remember karma don’t miss no one sweetie…believe that!” wrote another.

“Happy Birthday Kelvin but don’t do that… Wendy genuinely loved you for you,” a kinder follower wrote. “Wish her the best because Karma don’t miss nobody.”

“Chile if it wasn’t for Wendy him, his mistress and their illegitimate child would be homeless 🥴,” wrote another, alluding to Hunter’s girlfriend Sharina Hudson and their daughter, who was conceived and born while Hunter was still married to Williams.

Page Six broke the news that Williams filed for divorce from Hunter in April 2019.

Hunter also faced backlash for sharing a selfie with his girlfriend, Sharina Hudson, amid Williams’ health woes. Instagram

Hunter, 49, didn’t return Page Six’s request for comment, but he did later turn off the comments on his much-maligned photo.

As Page Six reported, the NYPD received a call last Tuesday requesting an ambulance to transport a 57-year-old woman residing at Williams’ Manhattan address for a psychiatric evaluation. The patient was taken to Beth Israel Hospital.

Amid Williams’ mental health check, a source told Page Six she is lonely and continues to struggle with her health.

“It has been a very difficult time for Wendy. She’s a single woman with very few friends. She lost her marriage, her mom, and is living alone,” our source shared.

“There is a lot on her plate.”

Williams’ brother, Thomas Williams Jr., recently shared that the radio host-turned-TV personality is in “stable” condition after her mental health check and “ongoing health issues,” including a breakthrough case of COVID-19.

“I really do believe and have the faith that Wendy’s going to make it. It’s not an easy fight, it’s not one that individuals always win,” Tommy said on his YouTube channel. “It’s not easy. She’s doing well. She’s stable and I’ve spoken with her … she’s hanging in there. We’re praying, she’s fighting.”
