The winding saga of Wendy Williams versus Wells Fargo has taken another turn, with the talk show host demanding access to her money.

In a video posted on her new Instagram account Wednesday, Williams said it’s “not fair” she’s been frozen out of her accounts and called out her financial advisor, Lori Schiller.

“My thing is that I’ve been asking questions about my money and when I began asking questions about my money, suddenly Lori Schiller has got no response regarding my money. I want my money. This is not fair,” Williams said.

She then accused Schiller of plotting with the bank to keep her away from her money.

“Wells Fargo has no questions and answers regarding my money. This is not fair. And Lori Schiller and Wells Fargo has this guardianship petition about keeping me away from my money,” she added.

The daytime diva also criticized her former manager Bernie Young and accused him of using her credit card to hire an attorney to file a legal petition against her.

“I know for a fact that Bernie Young used my American Express card to hire an attorney to file a petition against me. That was done with my American Express card,” she said. “You’re no good and this is not fair at all.”

She said there’s a doctor plotting with Schiller. “Then there’s this person… a former doctor… had medical information about me that I never even got! It was sent over to Lori Schiller. So I haven’t gotten this stuff.”

Williams has been battling Wells Fargo for several weeks after the bank froze her accounts amid claims she was “of unsound mind.”

As previously reported, Debmar-Mercury — the producer and distributor behind The Wendy Williams Show pulled the plug on Williams’ daytime chat show after its current season due to her ongoing health problems. Since season 13 of the show  launched in October 2021, Williams hasn’t made a single on-air appearance. A new show  hosted by Sherri Shepherd will launch in the fall and take over Williams’ timeslot.

According to a Wednesday report in The Sun, Bernie Young recently filed a petition to be Williams’ legal guardian amid her health struggles.

Last week, Williams did a phone interview with Good Morning America about Wells Fargo, her health problems and her career, but did not appear on camera.
