In December 2022 Kevin Jr was evicted from his luxury $2million Miami apartment and hit with a lawsuit for $70,000 in back rent that she can no longer pay for him allegedly due to medical and legal reasons.
Kevin was hit with the lawsuit in February 2022. It came after Wendy had health issues which led to the court being put in charge of her finances after her Wells Fargo accounts were frozen in January.
According to the US Sun, the eviction suit was filed in August and has a copy of Kevin Jr's lease, showing Wendy had paid a security deposit, other fees and a full year of rent in advance- more than $100,000.
The lease started in March 2021 and ended in February this year. After it had passed, Kevin agreed to continue to rent the apartment on a monthly basis.
As it came to the end of the lease, Wendy had some health issues which led to the court being put in charge of her finances after her Wells Fargo accounts were frozen in January.
This was around the time that the overdue rent began to pile up. Wendy's accounts had been frozen by Wells Fargo in January because there were concerns she was 'of unsound mind.'
Her bank also suspected 'financial exploitation, dementia, or undue influence' and she was placed in a financial guardianship.

Speaking to the court, her son explained in his filing that his mother had rented the apartment for him.
He explained because of her health issues, all of the financial support he received from her stopped, including his housing.
He had also told the court the situation spiraled very quickly and unexpectedly and he did not know things would end up how they did.
Kevin added he would be moving out of the apartment on September 7. Wendy had been reportedly making $10million a year, or $55,000 an episode, for The Wendy Williams Show.
Her absence began in September at the start of the 2021 season. She was hospitalized for a psychiatric evaluation days later.
The star suffered a number of health issues including Graves' disease, lymphedema and substance abuse and missed the entirety of her final season of The Wendy Williams Show.
Williams' caretaker issued a statement February 22 2023 saying that doctors have diagnosed Williams with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia.
The health struggles 'have already presented significant hurdles in Wendy's life' and have behavioral and cognitive impacts, according to the statement.

'Wendy is still able to do many things for herself,' the statement attributed to her care team read. 'Most importantly she maintains her trademark sense of humor and is receiving the care she requires to make sure she is protected and that her needs are addressed. She is appreciative of the many kind thoughts and good wishes being sent her way.'
The statement on Williams' health was issued on PR Newswire. A representative listed on the release, Jennifer Hanley, referred questions back to the statement when contacted by The Associated Press.
The announcement came a day after a cover story in People magazine quoted Williams' family about the nature of her struggles, ahead of a Lifetime documentary set to air Saturday.
'The people who love her cannot see her,' the magazine quoted Williams' sister Wanda as saying. 'I think the big (question) is: How the hell did we get here?' The family said a court-appointed legal guardian was the only person with unfettered access to Williams.
The article said the Lifetime documentary crew, which set out in 2022 to chronicle Williams' comeback, stopped filming in April 2023 when, her manager 'and jeweler' Will Selby says in footage for the film, she entered a facility to treat 'cognitive issues.'
Her son says in the documentary that doctors had connected her cognitive issues to alcohol use, People reported. Williams' family told People they don´t know where she is and cannot call her themselves, but she can call them.
