Wendy Williams Hunter Birthday Give Back Gala

Wendy Williams is having a tough time shifting her palatial New Jersey estate.

The talk show queen has had to cut the price of her luxe pad after a deal to buy the home fell through, BOSSIP has learned.

Williams originally listed the property for $1.895 million back in January 2020, but that same month she knocked the price down to $1.699 million. That move must’ve attracted a buyer, because the home went into a pending sale in February, according to public records. However, that deal must’ve fallen through, because the mansion was back in the market in March, this time with an additional $124,000 off the sale price, and is now listed at $1.5 million.

Public records put the property’s worth at more than $2 million, and the home’s nearly $50,000 annual tax bill is based on the home’s assessment at $1.8 million.

Williams’ custom-built pad sits on three-fourths of an acre and has five bedrooms, four bathrooms and a 2,500 square foot gourmet kitchen.

Williams and her now ex-husband Kevin Hunter bought the property together while they were still married, and raised their college-aged son there before. Under the terms of their divorce, they agreed to sell the place and split the profits.

Williams and Hunter may have to sit on the property for a while longer. The recent Coronavirus epidemic has upended the real estate industry, and many sales have been put on hold in the interim.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines.

Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
