    Wendy Williams has been allowed to visit her father for his 94th birthday - despite ongoing restrictions under her court-appointed guardianship

    The former television host, 60, was photographed arriving at Miami International Airport on Saturday (15.02.25), ahead of her dad Thomas Williams Sr's birthday celebrations - after Wendy, who is currently living in a New York City wellness facility, had previously expressed uncertainty about whether she would be able to attend due to her conservatorship


    Her visit came after a judge ruled she was permitted to fly to Miami for two days to celebrate with her father, and

    photos taken at the airport showed her smiling as she sat in a motorised scooter upon arrival.

    Wendy had spoken about her uncertainty regarding the visit last month during an emotional interview on 'The Breakfast Club' with Charlamagne tha God.

    She said: "My dad is going to be 94 next month. I don't know if I'm able to fly to Miami to say happy birthday to my dad." Wendy also attributed the uncertainty to her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, saying: "Listen, I don't know if she's going to let me see my dad for his birthday."

    Sabrina has overseen Wendy's finances and health since 2022, while her family has had limited contact with her.

    A source with knowledge of the case told 'The Breakfast Club' the guardianship court holds the final decision over whether Wendy can travel outside of her New York facility, where she receives round-the-clock medical care.

    During the interview, Wendy also emphasised the importance of visiting her father due to his advanced age.

    She added: "I'm exhausted thinking about what if I can't see my dad for his birthday. At 94, the day after that is not promised."

    Wendy's mother, Shirley Williams, died in 2020 at the age of 85.

    Her niece, Alex Finnie, who was present for the interview about her guardianship, shared her frustration over the situation, saying: "She wants to be here for his birthday. And the fact that they're playing games - I'm sorry, that is just absolutely sickening."
