VIDEO: THE WENDY WILLIAMS FAINTING EPISODE EXPLAINED!

Wendy Williams began her show in 2008 after moving away from being a radio host, She quickly gained attention and became known as "shock jockette" for all of her on-air clashes with celebrities as well as being cast in the movie "Think like a man".

Williams announced that her doctor had diagnosed her with Graves disease. She said that the news caught her by surprise because she knew that she was having thyroid issues but was unaware that she was struggling with hyperthyroidism, or overproduction of thyroid hormones, from Graves' disease.

The Mayo Clinic website lists some of the symptoms as heart tremors, anxiety, and shakiness some people can experience inflammation and twitching of the muscles around their eyes, which viewers had noticed and commented on earlier. The media brought a lot of attention to her unexplained fainting episode on live TV a couple of months ago which now makes sense due to her diagnosis.

After announcing her diagnosis, her fans were nothing but supportive, cheering her on for listening to her doctor and taking a three week break, which she consequently brought down to two because, in her words: "I'm not an heiress. Who's gonna pay my bills?". Totally relatable, I mean, a princess cannot live a life that's less than the best right?
