Wendy Williams is finally coming back to her iconic purple chair. The daytime talk show host is confirmed to return to The Wendy Williams Show on March 4, Variety reports. Williams has been on an extended leave since January 18 to focus on her health after suffering complications from Graves’ disease, the chronic immune system disorder affecting the thyroid gland.
Throughout the last six weeks, Williams has been absent. Instead her seat has been kept warm by rotating celebrity guests, including Nick Cannon, Keke Palmer and Sherri Shepherd. The Wendy Williams Show is celebrating 10 years of serving up hot topics on the air this year. Welcome back, Wendy!
