Kevin Hunter Sr., the ex-husband of Wendy Williams, is reportedly reeling from shock and anger upon discovering his son’s participation in the much-anticipated Lifetime docuseries, “Where is Wendy Williams?” Close sources to Hunter have shed light on his profound disappointment and unease regarding the portrayal of his former spouse in the documentary.

Insiders speaking to The Sun have provided a glimpse into the turmoil swirling around Hunter Sr., 51, who was notably upset by the negative depiction of Wendy Williams in the docuseries’ trailer. The revelation of his son, Kevin Hunter Jr.’s involvement, despite previous assertions of wanting to stay clear of the project, has particularly stung Hunter Sr., leaving him feeling unexpectedly betrayed.

The source revealed that Hunter Sr. had harbored strong objections to the documentary from its inception, fearing it would cast a shadow over Williams’ illustrious yet tumultuous career. Wendy Williams stepped down from her iconic talk show in July 2021 amidst a slew of health and legal challenges, turning the page on an era.

Scenes from the documentary’s trailer that show Williams in various states of distress, including instances where she is yelling over a bottle of vodka and appearing disoriented in New York City, struck a chord with Hunter Sr. He reportedly views these portrayals as a tragic exploitation of Williams’ personal struggles for entertainment, adding to his outrage and dismay over the project.

Moreover, Hunter Sr.’s frustration extends to his son’s decision to participate in the docuseries. Despite previous advice against involvement, Kevin Jr. opted to join the project, a move his father perceives as not in his best interest.

As the docuseries “Where is Wendy Williams?” nears its release, it underscores the continuing saga of Wendy Williams’ complex public and private life. The documentary has stirred a mix of emotions and raised questions about Williams’ legacy and future in the entertainment industry.
