Wendy Williams goes Instagram official with new boyfriend William Selby, shares flirty date-night pictures
Talk show host Wendy Williams seems to have made her relationship Instagram official on Saturday by posting a flirty photo showing her cozying up to jeweler William Selby (aka Big Will, aka Willdaboss).
The photo appears to be from Friday night, according to Daily Mail, where Wendy is seen in a slight cuddle with her man.
The couple was seen together that night, arms locked and seemed to have even matched outfits for the outing. Willaim wore a brown overcoat while the host wore an ankle-length fur coat of the same color. They were seen having a bite at Aroma Trattoria.
The report added that their date seemed to have ended oddly after Williams walked away after Selby went in to hug her. On her show, Williams recently said that a new guy gave her a diamond heart-shaped necklace as a Valentine's Day gift. Selby had accompanied Williams on Thursday to the premiere of Spotify's documentary 'New Cash Order'.
This comes after Williams made headlines recently for an insensitive comment about Amie Harwick. Harwick, who was Drew Carey's ex was a sex-therapist, was murdered by her ex-boyfriend Gareth Pursehouse. Harwick had a restraining order against Gareth, and after it had expired, he had come to her residence and pushed her off her third-floor balcony.
While speaking about the headlining news on 'The Wendy Williams Show', she made a reference to Drew's hosting gig on 'The Price Is Right' saying "Come on down!" The insensitive comment got her a tremendous amount of backlash especially from Twitter and she was also called out by Chris Harwick, Amie's brother.
Chris told Fox News, "Domestic violence is something no one should be joking about. This is a difficult time for my family and for Wendy Williams to make light of this tragedy is very upsetting to us and extremely distasteful. My sister worked tirelessly for domestic violence victims and women’s rights. Wendy Williams should apologize publicly to my family for her comment."
This marks at least the third time in the recent past that Williams has been under fire for insensitive comments. This joke just comes days after she released an apology video for her comment telling gay men to "stop wearing our skirts and our heels.'" She was also criticized for a joke she made about Joaquin Phoenix's cleft palate.
