Wendy Williams’ Siblings: Meet Her Brother and Sister 

Wendy Williams has two siblings, and both are sick with worry about her. 

It’s common knowledge that the last few years have been rife with sorrow for the beloved talk show host. 

Most notably, the Emmy winner has completely vanished from public life since the cancellation of her talk show in 2022.

A new documentary looks to uncover some of the mysteries surrounding Wendy, and at the center are the members of her family who want what is best for her.

Like Wendy’s siblings, Wanda and Thomas. 

Wendy Williams’ Two Siblings Are Very Close To Her 

Turns out, Wendy is a middle child.

The second of three, Wendy has two other siblings: a sister named Wanda and a brother, named Thomas. 

They share the same parents, Shirley and Thomas Sr., and for years have been very, very close. 

When Wendy was more active on social media, she would often post pictures of siblings on Instagram and spend lots of quality time with them. 

But as we’ve said, things changed in the last few years and according to those closest to her, Wendy is being kept away from her family, including her brother and sister. 

Wendy Williams’ Sister Wanda Finnie

As Wendy’s older sister, Wanda has always been one of her fiercest supporters.

An attorney out of Florida, she has taken over the matriarchal role of the family since their mother’s passing.

Because of this, she plays a key role in the Lifetime documentary, Where Is Wendy Williams? Throughout the docuseries, she is seen trying not only to navigate saving Wendy from herself, but also advocating for her little sister after she’s put under guardianship.

“We are her family, and you tell me that I’m not capable of taking care of my sister. What would you do? What should I do?” Wanda asks the audience in the film.

As of today, Wendy is still in treatment for reported “cognitive issues”. Wendy’s sister told People Magazine that she is in touch with her, but only on terms agreed on by the guardian. 

“I spoke with her yesterday and I speak with her very regularly when she reaches out to me. She is, from what I understand, in a wellness, healing type of environment,” says Wanda of the unknown facility Williams is in to address cognitive issues.

“We cannot reach out to her,” Wanda adds, “but she can reach out to us. And she is in a healing place emotionally. She’s not the person that you see in this film.”

Wendy’s Brother, Thomas Williams 

Named after his father, Thomas is the youngest of the Williams siblings. 

Tommy, as he’s often called, has a different relationship with his sister. While still close, the pair have had friction in recent years.

Notably, Tommy previously outed his big sister for missing their father’s 92nd birthday celebration. Sometime later, he called her out on social media when she did make it down to Florida for a visit – but with a camera crew in tow. 

It’s assumed that this crew was part of the team filming the documentary, and all was a plan to reignite her career. 

Sadly, that wasn’t the case, but in a positive turn, it sounds like there was some healing between Wendy and Tommy during her last visit. 

“Family is everything, believe that,” Tommy said in an Instagram post during her visit. 

“We gon’ be all right.”

Here’s hoping he’s right!
