JustPassingThrough 148 Posted February 21, 2022 46 minutes ago, MortalCaso said: I will stop bumping the Rumours thread on this, as it is becoming much more solid. Reports, though from some less reputable websites, saying the "Wendy Williams Show" has been cancelled due to the hosts health issues. I tend to believe these unconfirmed reports given everything else we have heard over the last few months. Time will tell. There was a video that was posted online of her last week. People magazine makes a big point, maybe too big, about how in the clip, she repeatedly gives her age as 56, though she is 57. Either this is a misspeak (as her publicist says), she is just lying about her age (by only one year?), or this is an older video and her team is posting it to downplay concerns about her health. But the article also points out that there's a moment where she talks about where her mother lives, present tense, even though she died in 2020. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They all seem fit and healthy and working (so put 'em all down for 2016). Raising this again. Obvs Stewpot and Daniels are dead, how Henry Kelly survives, I dunno. Anyway, it came as a surprise to see an article today (bot generated) on Sarah Kennedy's "death" - I think there was vandalism on her Wiki some time ago, but that was never proved. I'm not aware of even rumours recently about the old hermit. Odd it popped up though, there's normally summat that sparks these off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
