Williams’ new gig will run concurrent with her nationally syndicated talk show which will continue to tape through June and July. In February, The Wendy Williams Show beat out its competitors with a 47 percent increase in local ratings.
“I have the greatest fans in daytime TV, and I’m so excited to be giving fans more fun throughout the summer,” Williams said in March. “If it were up to me, we’d have a show every day, all year long!”
Congratulations to Wendy on the new role!
