Charlamagne Tha God Admits to Introducing Wendy Williams’ Husband to Mistress

In the few days since Wendy Williams revealed on “The Wendy Williams Show” that she’s living in a sober house for addiction Charlamagne Tha God has weighed in on her situation.

He did it on Wednesday during “The Breakfast Club” and said Williams’ addiction problems are related to her husband Kevin Hunter mistreating her, which matches the Daily Mail’s reporting from earlier this week.

“For some time now and even today and beyond, I have been living in a sober house,” Williams said in a weeping revelation on Tuesday. “You know I’ve had a struggle with cocaine in the past. I never went to a place to get treatment.”

Hunter has been unable to shake persistent accusations that he’s had a 10-year affair with a woman named Sharina Hudson, whom he refuses to end things with, which was the crux of Charlamagne’s point about why Williams is fighting addiction.

“Wendy Williams needs rehab from her husband Kevin Hunter,” he stated. “This is yet another lie, another half-truth, whatever you want to call it, that is deflecting from the actual issue, which is the alleged abuse and infidelity from her husband.”

“There’s a difference between being real and being exposed,” he added. “Wendy only came out with that yesterday because the Daily Mail article came out yesterday saying she was in rehab for pills and alcohol because of her husband Kevin Hunter’s alleged physical abuse and infidelity.”

Charlamagne also said that Williams follows a pattern of creating a distraction so people will stop looking into her marriage and the alleged mistreatment. 

“Whenever there’s a story about cheating or physically abusing her, she says nothing is wrong, everything is fine, she deflects to something else,” he explained. “And since she’s getting ahead of things, she needs to get ahead of this alleged abuse by her husband, because that truth will be revealed and the truth about Sharina Hudson aka Nicki will be revealed too.”

Plus, Charlamagne believes that more of Williams’ secrets will come out in the near future unless she deals with her marital problems head-on. 

Then on Friday, March 22, Charlamagne claimed that he introduced Hudson to Hunter, but he’s not responsible for the alleged affair.

“Just because I introduce you to someone doesn’t mean 10 years later you need to be in a picture with them throwing up duck lips and a peace sign,” he stated. “That has nothing to do with me.”

Afterward, the New York host said he just casually introduced Hudson to Hunter, and they’re responsible for whatever interaction they had after that.

And according to ET, Hunter’s mistress is pregnant and is supposed to deliver any day now, so it was his idea to put Williams in a treatment facility, which is said to be in Queens, N.Y.

“He wanted Wendy out of the way when the baby arrived,” the source claimed.

 

 

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
