Wendy Williams has criticised her brother Tommy Williams after he alleged that she didn't attend their mother's funeral service. The TV host's brother claimed that she didn't attend the service because she wanted to spend time with her ex-hubby, Kevin Hunter.
The media personality denied that she skipped her mommy's funeral when she talked about her family drama on her show called The Wendy Williams Show on Tuesday, January 19.
The 56-year-old star said she was there during the funeral of her mom, Shirley Williams. She passed away last November. Wendy told Tommy:
"Tommy, you know I was at mommy's service and you know she looked beautiful in her casket."
The former radio host shared that her ex-husband attended the funeral because he was invited. Wendy went on to accuse her brother of fighting a family member who is half his age during the memorial service. She claimed he started a fight over an open casket while her mother was "right there".
