Wendy Williamsis breaking her silence in the wake of her split from Kevin Hunter.
Williams, 55, confirmed that she and Hunter are “fully divorced” during her ThursdayappearanceonThe Tonight ShowStarringJimmy Fallon.
“After nine months, yes, I am fully divorced,” Williams told Fallon, 45. “A door has closed in old life, the new chapter has been so lovely.”
“Thank you for asking that,” Williams continued. “Thank you. Because people tip-toe around that. I don’t feel like I’m intimidating, but people are so scared. But you and I have known each other for a long time.”
The daytime host then addressed her time with Hunter, saying she has no regrets.
“I’m not mad, you know, it was 25 years I don’t regret,” she said. “But you know what, sometimes people move on with their lives. And I have to tell you something, I’m now — I no longer live in Jersey, it is Wendy in the city.”
When Fallon asked if she’s dating, she asked back, “Am I? Do I look like I have a hard time?”
