'The Wendy Williams Show' has been cancelled. The daytime talk show - which has aired since 2008 - will come to an end in June 2022 because of host Wendy's long running health battles and will be replaced by a new show fronted by Sherri Shepherd, who has stood in for Wendy on a numerous occasions during her absence.
In a statement, producers said: "Since Wendy is still not available to host the show as she continues on her road to recovery, we believe it is best for our fans, stations and advertising partners to start making this transition now.
Like our viewers, we have been impressed by the unique comedic twist Sherri puts on our daily live ‘Hot Topics’ segment, her creativity and interactions with our guests.
Her love for the content and daytime fans is obvious, and we are excited to partner with her to create another long-term talk franchise. " The 57-year-old former DJ has been struggling with autoimmune disorder Graves disease - which causes problems with the thyroid - and has not been seen on her own show since July 2021, with the show being fronted by various stars including Sherri, as well as Michael Rapaport, Fat Joe and Bevy Smith in the meantime.
