The ex-husband and ex-manager of Wendy Williams, Kevin Hunter (57), doesn’t forgive his ex-wife, who now claims that he was cheated in the final divorce decree.

The former radio DJ married Kevin Hunter on November 30, 1999. Citing irreconcilable differences, she filed for divorce in 2019, which was finalized in 2020. The divorce got here after she discovered that Hunter had welcomed a toddler together with his lover Sharina Hudson.

Sun reports that Hunter filed papers asking the court to “settle and set aside” the settlement with Williams, 60. He asked for judgment based on “fraud, misrepresentation and misconduct.”

The gossip queen and the longtime producer of her self-titled daytime talk show share a son, 24-year-old Kevin Hunter Jr.

After their separation, they argued over funds, with Hunter Sr. continuing to demand the $250,000 monthly alimony he was receiving until months before “The Wendy Williams Show” ended. Wells Fargo’s May 2019 portfolio report showed Wendy’s “total holdings” at $7.3 million.

The situation became more complicated when Williams’ best friend, Regina Schell, filed an affidavit in a New Jersey court. Schell stated that in 2022, the Radio Hall of Famer had $55 million in her Wells Fargo accounts.

According to Schell, while living with Williams in July 2022, she saw the New Jersey resident’s amassed bank balance. Schell also stated that Wendy was considering switching financial institutions and met with Bank of America in December 2022.

Hunter cited Schell’s statement in his latest court documents, alleging that $48 million was “fraudulently concealed” in reference to the divorce. However, Wendy’s guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, rejected Schell’s claims and Hunter’s assumptions.

“I cannot comment on what (Schell) believes she saw or heard, what she believes a third party heard, or what that third party may or may not have reported to (Schell),” Morrissey argued in her response filed on Williams’ behalf.

Additionally, Morrissey asserted that Hunter had “no personal knowledge” that his ex-wife had shown Schell her financial statements. Morrissey believed that Hunter had no grounds to reopen the divorce proceedings.

Meanwhile, Hunter continues to query whether Morrissey has the “legal standing” to represent his ex in the legal proceedings, as she became Wendy’s guardian two years after the divorce was finalized.

“SM. Morrissey is a lawyer in New York, not New Jersey, and although she claims to have been appointed as a Guardian in New York, her Guardianship does not extend to this court because New Jersey has not established a Guardianship,” reads the documents filed by Hunter in July.

In September, a judge gave Morrissey 21 days to prove he had the authority to represent Williams in the case.

“Kelvin, go get a job. You bit the hand that fed you, now live with the consequences of your actions. Find a JOB,” wrote one person Daily Mail.comments section.

Another Williams supporter wrote: “Don’t do this with Kevin. During their marriage, he took enough of Wendy’s money and spent it on his allowance. Move, Kevin!”

Hunter has his own publishing company and has began many businesses that weren’t very profitable. In July 2023, he was sued for a $20,000 bank card bill and likewise sold two luxury cars to a lending company. Last October, Hunter sold his $1.2 million Florida home for which he didn’t pay HOA fees. Some believe that he is still struggling and wishes money to support himself.

One person said: “Kevin owes child support to his child’s mom/ex-lover. This is nothing more than taking out dirty money! I hope he doesn’t get a penny! Poor Wendy, between Kevin and her adult son spending her money!”

Another said: “He and his mistress can’t afford to live now. Ha.”

Two others told off-duty publicists: “Request denied! You’ve done enough research. and “Dude, get a job and stop mocking your ex.”

A like-minded commenter told Hunter, “You should show respect and gratitude to Wendy, who loved you and gave you a privileged life. Instead, you misbehaved and turned on her. Your plans backfired… Move on. How are you, Wendy!?

Wendy’s current financial situation stays unclear based on public statements from the parties involved. Her publicist claimed to have overheard a conversation during which Morrissey admitted that Wendy did not have any money in her account.

Additionally, a 2024 Lifetime docuseries titled “Where’s Wendy Williams?” it included a scene during which Williams stated, “I don’t have any money.” The trailer for the four-part show highlighted Wendy’s announcement about potentially going broke.

Both sides of the Wendy Williams vs. Kevin Hunter lawsuit used different legal tactics. For example, in April 2024, Sabrina Morrissey demanded that Hunter pay back $112,000 in overpaid child support plus accrued interest.

Morrissey believed Hunter had unintentionally obtained the funds using an “auto-pay feature.” The divorce agreement allegedly stipulates that his severance package can be terminated if Williams’ annual income falls below lower than twice her annual salary as of February 1, 2020.

Documents filed by Morrissey show Williams only received two remaining payments after “The Wendy Williams Show” resulted in 2022 – $1,952 in February 2022 and $59 in January 2023.

However, Hunter desires to receive 23 months of back spousal support payments from Williams. He argued that Wendy cut off child support before court-ordered guardianship was established in May 2022 attributable to her poor health. He said she stopped receiving payments in February this 12 months.

Wendy suffers from Graves’ disease, thyroid problems, aphasia and frontotemporal dementia. The former radio shocker also spoke openly about entering rehab for drug and alcohol abuse. From all of Hunter’s recent testimony, it seems that he has never shown any concern for his ex-wife’s health.

“That’s all he cares about…HER money! I never read him asking about her health.
