Whoa! Wendy Williams has been spotted without her wedding ring amid news her husband Kevin Hunter‘s alleged mistress has given birth!
On Monday, just hours after it was reported Sharina Hudson welcomed a baby girl this past Wednesday, the daytime TV host was pictured by paps (HERE) leaving her Queens, New York sober house — without that big diamond on her left hand.

The 54-year-old, who was rocking a puffy leopard print jacket with black leggings and a bright yellow purse to step outside, did end up slipping her ring back on for a taping of The Wendy Williams Show later in the morning!
So, all is well in front of her live audience — but not so much out in public?? Yikes!

As we previously reported, Wendy came clean on her March 19 show, telling viewers that she has been living in a sober house while she’s being treated for addiction.
While she made no mention of the details, here’s what she told her fans at the time:
“For some time now, and even today and beyond, I have been living in a sober house. When you see me come to work glammed up, right after the show I go across the street, I do my pilates. I told you two hours a day I like to take care of my body. And, you know I’ve had a struggle with cocaine in my past. I never went to a place to get the treatment. I don’t know how. God was sitting on my shoulder and I just stopped… There are people in your family that might be struggling, maybe you, and I just want you to know more of the story, so this is my autobiographical story and I’m living it.”
The star continued:
“After I go to pilates, I go to several meetings all around town in the tristate area, and I see my brothers and sisters caught up in their addiction, and looking for help. They don’t care I’m Wendy, there’s no autographs — there’s nothing. It’s the brother and the sisters, caught up in the struggle. It’s been really interesting. Only Kevin and Kevin have known about this. Not my parents, nobody, nobody knew, because I look so glamorous out here.”
And her husband has spoken out in support of her since, despite rumors of him having an affair with a 33-year-old massage therapist, telling ET following his wife’s reveal:
“Wendy is doing well. We’re doing well as a family. We are moving forward with working on her sobriety and doing the work to help others, not just ourselves… It is a family process. Anybody that has to deal with this knows this a family process… and we are dealing with it and moving forward.”
Now that Hunter has allegedly welcomed a baby with Hudson, and both the newborn / mother are supposedly back in the hospital, it’s no wonder Williams might want to ditch her rock.
Of course, she hasn’t addressed any of this latest news in the press, and we don’t think she will.
Maybe she’ll just put the ring on as part of her TV costume? So sad…
The momma of one has previously spoken about some of the rumors on her March 4 episode marking her return to TV, saying about her manager/husband AND her wedding ring:
“I want to shout-out to my husband. I’m still wearing my ring. Believe me you, when you’ve been with somebody for 28 years, married for 25 years… we know each other. He’s my best friend, he’s my lover… I know what you’ve been seeing, but hunty, let me show you who I fell in love with and who he fell in love with. I’m still very much in love with my husband and anyone who’s been married… you know. Marriages have ebbs and flows, marriage isn’t easy. And don’t ask me about mine until you see this gone. And it ain’t going anywhere, not in this lifetime.”
For now, we just hope the TV personality is putting her health first amid her sober journey as she has removed her ring off-camera!
