Wendy Williams' legal guardian has filed new court documents asking Kevin Hunter to repay $112,500 in alimony.

Sabrina Morrissey claims in court documents that her ex-husband, a famous TV personality, was “overpaid” for three months and was “unjustly enriched” from Williams' bank account.

Morrissey confirmed that, saying that “The Wendy Williams Show” stopped paying the former host in October 2021, but that Hunter continued to receive payments until January 2022.

“We believe this is primarily a result of the fact that the payment was made through the 'AutoPay' feature within her account,” Morrissey said in the document.

She added that the payment was “contrary to the express terms” of the settlement agreement. The agreement stated that payments to Ms. Hunter would be suspended if her ex-wife's income “reduced to less than twice her then-current annual income (as of February 1, 2020).”

“By continuing to keep the overpayments, he has interfered with society.” [Williams’] ownership interest in those funds,” the document states.

In addition to repaying the six-figure sum, Morrissey also wants Hunter to repay interest and ask the court to issue a gag order forbidding Hunter from speaking to “the press or anyone else.” I am requesting you to do so.

“The potential harm is [Williams] It’s amazing,” she says. “Mr. Hunter and his representatives have indicated that they are willing to speak with the press about these issues.”

The Sun first reported news of Morrissey's charges.

Williams, 59, has been under conservatorship since early February 2022, when the bank intervened in a New York court, claiming her behavior was “concerning.”

The “How Are You?” host has been vocal about her opposition to conservatorship, detailing her lack of financial freedom in the two-part documentary “Where's Wendy Williams?” .

However, the Lifetime special also delved into Williams' diagnosis of dementia and aphasia, which her son Kevin Hunter Jr. blamed on her years of alcohol abuse.

Morrissey then accused Lifetime's parent company, A+E Networks, of “humiliating” Williams by filming her in a “visibly impaired state”.

In response to Morrissey's filing, an A+E Networks spokesperson told Page Six: “We look forward to the documents being unsealed as they tell a very different story.” Ta.
