Wendy Williams celebrated the 91st birthday of her father, Thomas Williams Sr., by posting several photos of herself and him on Instagram. In one shot, the actress was holding her father’s hand, while in another they were sitting on separate seats close to each other. In another picture, Thomas is smiling and listening to his daughter, who seems to be in a great mood. According to the title,
“Happy 91st Birthday, Dad!” “I’m having the most peaceful time of my life.”
She shared the five-minute video on February 17 to commemorate her return to social media after a short hiatus due to health issues. The pictures were posted on her new Instagram account, @therealwendywilliamsonline, which debuted earlier this week. Her son Kevin Hunter Jr. he recorded a video of her walking on a beach in Florida and talking about her mother, Shirley Williams, who died in December 2020. In the video, Wendy alluded to the present day mother and faked her age. A publicist posing as her agent told Page Six that the video was recorded on February 16 and that she misspoke.
In the video, Kevin noticed that his mother was taking a break from everything, and she confirmed that the break was exclusively from New York. Wendy said,
“I enjoy how fast New York is. I like it here in Florida as much as I do in New York, but it’s completely different things and people. But New York is my heart, and Florida is a lovely location – lovely, regular. Sometimes weird in a nice way. “Aren’t we all weird in a nice way?”
Kevin also inquired about allegations related to Wendy’s health problems. She replied that many others were wondering the same thing and that she was becoming more and more assertive.
All about Wendy Williams’ parents
Wendy Williams’ father is Thomas Williams Sr. He just turned 91, but little is known about his early life and profession. Thomas married Shirley Williams in 1957, and the couple moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Thomas was an English teacher and school administrator, and his wife taught special education. The duo had three master’s degrees and traveled extensively around the world. In 1970, they moved to Wayside, an upper-middle-class neighborhood in Ocean Township, New Jersey.
Wendy Williams has reflected on her idyllic upbringing with her parents after her mother died. She told App.com that her parents taught her that anyone can be a parent and make a difference in their community. Shirley was a member of the Monmouth County Boy Scout Council, the Central Jersey Club of the National Negro Business Association and other organizations. During an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show in December 2020, the 57-year-old opened up about her mother’s death and said:
“My mother died many, many, many, many weeks ago.” You know how easy it is to lose track of the day and time? All I knew was that it happened a long time ago. My mother, father, brothers and I – the five of us – she will always be here.”
The World War Z actress said her mother died gently and without suffering, surrounded by her love. She expressed gratitude for having her in her life for the past 56 years.
