It seems that talk show host Wendy Williams is going through quite a rough patch in her personal life. Reports have circulated that the host is allegedly losing weight at an unusually drastic rate, and her friends are getting concerned.

Williams was placed in the spotlight last month when her husband of 20 years Kevin Hunter, was revealed to supposedly be having an affair with a massage therapist named Sharina Hudson. The affair has been going on for 10 years as of now, and Hunter allegedly bought the woman a house in New Jersey with a price tag of $765,000, which was also less than 10 miles from his house with Williams.

The allegations further stated that Hunter has also been living with the massage therapist and appeared to have no plans in changing his lifestyle with the mistress.

When the reports first started circulating, Williams seemed to deny those reports, saying that she and Hunter are happily married and viewers should not believe everything they read in the media.

However, according to a report by Radar Online, the scandal has really affected the popular talk show host. Sources shared that Williams is hardly eating due to the stress of the affair being placed in the limelight. Apart from the drastic weight loss she has gone through, Williams also recently fainted on live television and a tearful encounter in New York City seem to be proof of the rough patch that she and Hunter are going through.

According to an eyewitness, Williams was spotted standing in front of Barney's New York in Manhattan before she went to the store's restaurant, Fred's, where she ate a big meal. Williams looked like she had been crying. A store insider also said that the TV star requested that the sales staff call her "Wendy Hunter," instead of Wendy Williams.
