Wendy Williams is scheduled to do an interview on The View.
ABC recently announced the show will welcome Williams on Friday, March 14.
The former talk show host won’t appear on set, but instead will call in, according to ABC. Ginalisa Monterroso, founder and president of Connect Care Advisory Group, will appear on the show as well.
Williams is expected to discuss the court-ordered guardianship she’s been desperately trying to end.

The radio legend has recently done a string of interviews to dispute a claim her guardian Sabrina Morrissey made in court documents last year, saying Williams is “cognitively impaired and permanently incapacitated.”
Williams, 60, was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia in 2023, according to Morrissey.
The diagnosis followed the TV star’s placement under guardianship in 2022, after Wells Fargo filed a petition in a New York court, citing concerns she was being financially exploited.
On Feb. 12, TMZ released a documentary on the “restrictive guardianship” and Williams’ life in a New York City assisted living facility.
The film titled TMZ Presents: Saving Wendy showed Williams in a window, speaking by phone from her apartment. The media mogul said she is not allowed to go outside, lives under heavy security, and eats in her room because “it’s extremely depressing” to be around 90-year-olds with serious health problems.
TMZ said the only way their crew could film the doc was to have a camera placed on the sidewalk, where they recorded Williams at the window on the 5th floor of her apartment building.
Weeks earlier, Williams called into the Jan. 16 episode of “The Breakfast Club.” She told her former radio co-host Charlamagne Tha God that she is not “cognitively impaired” and feels like she is “in a prison.”
“This system is broken,” Williams said. “This system that I’m in, this system has falsified a lot.”
