How Much Money Did Wendy Reportedly Make?

The 59-year-old was promised to be paid $100,000 per episode in the four-part documentary, Radar Online reports. The production was slammed by critics who found it to be exploitative.

Additionally, the former host was afforded a $1,000 stipend for her glam team. Despite her beauty preparations, Williams was often seen disheveled in many scenes of the doc.

The outlet was able to retrieve the 18-page contract that outlined Wendy’s compensation for filming the project. The beloved star allegedly signed the document shortly before she was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia in 2023. Former action star, Bruce Willis, suffers from the same condition.

Radar reports the contract read:

“Producer shall pay Artist a fee of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) per shoot day that is pre-approved by Producers that glam is required for the shoot day, as a reimbursement for all of Artist’s and Artist’s associate’s hair and makeup,”

 

The docuseries was reportedly supposed to outline her comeback but the project ended up revealing the former radio host’s mental decline, physical ailments and alcohol addiction.

The Guardian Alleges Foul Play

As The Shade Room previously reported, Wendy’s appointed guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, filed a lawsuit on February 22, just days before the documentary was to premiere. The legal action was taken against Lifetime and its parent company, A+E Networks.

Morrrissey challenged the validity of the contract considering Williams’ mental state and argued she was being taken advantage of.

The guardian alleges the TV personality “did not have the legal or mental capacity to authorize her participation.”

In addition, Morrissey stated, “it remains unknown who created the company that entered into a contract with the network.” The company that is responsible identified itself as “The Wendy Experience.”

“The Contract appears to have been signed on January 25, 2023, by the ‘CEO’ of The Wendy Experience, Inc,” the guardian’s lawsuit states. “The name in the signature is not clearly legible, however it is highly distinguishable from W.W.H.’s signature.”

Despite Morrissey’s plea the judge allowed the documentary to be aired on Feb. 24 to the dismay of Wendy’s fans.
