Wendy Williams is receiving surprise support from former Hollywood child star Brock Pierce as her conservatorship battle heats up.

The talk-show host, 60, has been fighting for her freedom while being ‘imprisoned’ at a New York-based ᴀssisted living facility — a claim her legal guardian denies — after being diagnosed with progressive aphasia and dementia in 2023.

Things took a troubling turn this week when Williams was rushed to hospital on Monday for a psychiatric evaluation after she was seen begging fans for help.

Williams said she pᴀssed her evaluation with ‘flying colors’ — further putting the validity of her conservatorship into question. 

And on Wednesday, Pierce — known for his roles in The Mighty Ducks (1992) and First Kid (1996) — spoke out in support of Williams and publicly offered to help her ‘begin her journey to healing.’

Specifically, the actor-turned-Bitcoin billionaire, 44, offered to put Williams up in one of his mansions with ‘around-the-clock hospital care,’ as reported by Page Six.

‘I’ve always admired Wendy’s strength, and when I saw her ask for help, it was impossible to ignore,’ he told the outlet in a statement. ‘My offer is simple: a place where she can find peace, receive the care she deserves, and begin her journey to healing.’

‘Wendy is a national treasure, and it’s time we show her the kindness and support she has always given to so many.’

A source close to Pierce — a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump — elaborated on the star’s ‘open invitation’ to Williams and how ‘moved’ he was by her ‘plea for ᴀssistance.’

‘Having appeared on Wendy’s radio show in the past, Brock is deeply moved by Wendy’s plea for ᴀssistance,’ the insider began.

‘Understanding the challenges she faces, Brock is offering Wendy a safe space in his private mansion, with around-the-clock hospital care and professional medical attention tailored to her needs.’

The source claimed Pierce’s ‘goal is to help Wendy regain her freedom and health’ and that putting her up in one of his mansions would ‘provide Wendy with a secure environment where she can focus on recovery without the pressures of the public eye.’

They continued: ‘This offer is an open invitation to Wendy to take the time she needs to heal and find peace in an environment free from the pressures that have burdened her.’ 

While Pierce did not specify which mansion would be available to Williams, Page Six uncovered that he owns properties across the United States — including in New York City.

Pierce’s help offer came just hours before TMZ reported that the ᴀssisted living facility, Coterie, where Williams has been staying for the last eight months, filed a police report for kidnapping.

Sources close to Williams told the outlet that the facility claimed her niece, Alex Finnie, broke the law by taking the TV star to dinner on Wednesday night.

Finnie reportedly accompanied Williams as she made her way back Coterie from Lenox Hill hospital, where she received her psyche evaluation earlier this week, on Wednesday.

Finnie is said to have spent time with Williams at Coterie before taking her aunt out to dinner at an Italian restaurant in New York City that evening.

This prompted Coterie to contact the NYPD and file a police report as they claimed ‘Alex evaded staff by taking Wendy out of the building,’ according to insiders.

However, the outlet explained that Williams wouldn’t have been allowed to leave her memory unit — which is located on the facility’s fifth floor — without an attendant giving her elevator access.

They also claimed that Williams and her niece were escorted to the lobby by an attendant and that the attendant even ‘opened the door of their Uber,’ which took them to the restaurant.

This seemingly contradicts a recent claim made by Williams’ guardian Sabrina Morrisey’s attorney, who said in a letter to TMZ that Williams could ‘come and go’ from the facility and that there were no restrictions placed on family visits.

According to the outlet, Williams and her niece are still at dinner and have yet to return to Coterie.

Earlier Wednesday, Williams got emotional while speaking on TMZ Live hours after Morrissey wanted to set the record straight about her claims she ‘imprisoned’ her at the ᴀssisted living facility.

Williams told that outlet it was a ‘lie’ that she was ‘allowed’ to leave the Coterie and go shopping, adding that her family has to be ‘allowed’ by Sabrina to see her.

‘It is a lie. They are lying people. I’m sorry but I’ve had it up to here. Thank goodness I can speak.’

‘What’s more restrictive than the Coterie? The memory unit on the fifth floor. And what is doing on with the Judge [Lisa Sokoloff] speaking to me in such a way,’ Wendy said.

When asked if she is concerned they were going to move her to a more restrictive unit, she said: ‘Yes I am, and don’t make me start crying. Because I can laugh and cry at the drop of a dime,’ she added.

‘It makes me very nervous. Let me be honest with you. I’m scared of that mess. I am. I don’t know what could be тιԍнтer than where I am but I have to get out of guardian and I have to do it immediately,’ Wendy said.

When asked why the judge and the guardian want to keep her in the facility, Wendy told Harvey that she would tell him ‘behind the scenes,’ but Ginalisa Monterroso, who was also on the phone with Wendy – a caretaker who is independent of Williams’ guardianship – said she thinks it was because of the Lifetime lawsuit.

It’s unclear if Monterroso is an employee of the ᴀssisted-living facility or what her immediate connection to Williams is.

Hours earlier, an attorney for her temporary financial guardian Sabrina wanted to set the record straight about the talk show host’s claims she was being ‘imprisoned’ at Coterie.

Sabrina was originally appointed by a judge in 2022 after Wendy’s ex-manager Bernie Young reportedly raised concern that she was of ‘unsound mind’ – which also led to Wells Fargo to temporarily freeze her accounts.

Sabrina had told TMZ that Wendy was receiving ‘excellent medical care’ at the facility, which features a ‘spa, a workout room, excellent food, a dining room, and outside terraces’ – despite the fact the talk show host had said she can only leave the memory unit with permission.

Last month in February, the star revealed that she has stepped outside only twice in the span of a month as she got candid about her isolating conservatorship.

Wendy also claimed she is not ‘cognitively impaired’ and her family broke their silence in January as they they search for an attorney to help her ‘regain control of her life.’

Wendy broke her silence on Tuesday in an interview on Good Day New York York with host Rosanna Scotto.

Williams had called Scotto from the hospital and explained that she pᴀssed her evaluation with ‘flying colors.’

Rosanna shifted the conversation and said, ‘You know what I don’t understand Wendy is that they’re locking you up like you committed a crime.’

Williams replied, ‘Yes! I have to tell you something. And you know, I’m on the fifth floor. It’s called the memory unit. This is a floor, you know, you don’t remember anything. Like really?

‘And as far as me being able to go outside, I’m not allowed. You know, I have to stay in this building,’ she continued, and added she needs to be ‘permitted’ in order to go to the gym that is located on the third floor.

Wendy then emotionally stated that her money is ‘up in the air’ before saying, ‘This is my life.’

Towards the end of the interview, she shared that leaving her guardianship is ‘the number one most important thing.

During her trip to New York City’s Lenox Hill Hospital on Monday from the ᴀssisted-living facility where she has been forced to live, the former talk show host was evaluated by a psychiatrist.  

And on Monday, sources told TMZ that Williams received a perfect score on a ‘capacity test’ administered by the psychiatrist.

DailyMail.com has reached out to a representative for Williams for comment.

According to the sources, Wendy was administered a 10-item questionnaire that was designed to determine her awareness and decision-making abilities, and she scored 10 out of 10 on the test.

Although one test alone doesn’t give a full picture of her mental capacity, the fact that she pᴀssed the test with flying colors may indicate that she is far more aware than her guardian has indicated.

Williams had previously been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia.

However, sources clarified that the exam Williams underwent was not to dispute her dementia diagnosis. The results of the test will reportedly be shared with the judge who has been overseeing her guardianship.

In recent weeks, Wendy has been making an effort to speak to the press to make her case that she has improved and should be able to manage her care – and money – on her own.

Williams PR push is set to expand later this week when she is scheduled to make her first national television appearance since her dementia diagnosis.

It was previously reported that Williams’ visit to the hospital was preceded by NYPD officers visiting her at her ᴀssisted-living facility to perform a wellness check.

Sources told TMZ on Monday that Gina had allegedly ordered her trip to the hospital and the cognitive test.

According to TMZ, New York’s Adult Protective Services agency is now conducting an investigation into her guardianship and her stay at the facility, where she is confined to a restrictive memory unit, where she appears to have fewer privileges than patients on other floors.

Williams has denied that she has memory issues, and therefore she doesn’t think she should be deprived of her privileges. She also reportedly doesn’t have freedom of movement on that floor.

According to the publication, APS has been interviewing people close to the gossip monger, including her niece, Alex Finnie, whom employees reportedly interviewed on Monday.

Wendy reportedly spoken with the organization recently. The NYPD is also reportedly continuing to investigate the circumstances of her stay in the facility.

Williams will be making her first national television appearance since her shocking dementia diagnosis, ABC revealed on Sunday.

She will be joining the ladies of The View on Friday, March 14 – even as she wages a legal battle to end her guardianship.

Wendy has lately made attempts to speak out via phone from her ᴀssisted-living facility, where she has been kept on a restrictive memory unit that gives her few privileges and little right of movement.

Although Williams will be back on TV, it’s unclear if viewers will get to see her live, as ABC’s announcement indicates that she will be doing a phone interview with the View hosts, who include Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin, Ana Navarro and Alyssa Farah Griffin.

However, she got a rare breath of fresh air last month when her guardianship and the facility allowed her to fly to Miami to celebrate her father’s 94th birthday for a few days.

Back in 2022, Williams was placed under a court-appointed guardianship after Wells Fargo reported several large withdrawals from her bank account that it deemed suspicious.

After Williams was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia in February 2024, Morrissey later said the gossip monger was ‘cognitively impaired and permanently incapacitated.’

But in recent months, a seemingly lucid Wendy has been disputing that she’s impaired and begging to regain her freedom.
