<p id=”par-4_60″>As for Hunter Jr., he reportedly doesn’t know where his mother currently receives treatment. “Kevin has spoken to his mom occasionally, and he knows she’s in some sort of treatment facility, but he’s not sure exactly what it is or where it is,” an insider told <a href=”https://www.the-sun.com/tv/10478235/wendy-williams-son-kevin-blocked-contacting-dementia/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Sun</a>. “He is also questioning if she’s getting the care she really needs.”</p>

<p id=”par-5_35″>Hunter Jr. isn’t the only one unsure of his mother’s whereabouts. Williams’ brother, sister, and niece also don’t know her location. Williams’ conservator is reportedly the only one who knows where she receives treatment. </p>

<p id=”par-6_38″>Wendy Williams’ son, Kevin Hunter Jr., spoke out with concern regarding his mother’s care in the past. He told <a href=”https://www.the-sun.com/tv/8264203/wendy-williams-son-kevin-first-interview-near-death/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Sun</a> that his mother’s physical and mental health has declined, and she was put under a conservatorship. </p>

<p id=”par-7_63″>“I know there are all sorts of things happening that I know in her right mind she would never agree to,” he said. “As hard as it is seeing her being taken advantage of, I know that if I’m making sure she, as a person, is OK, that is the important thing. Because, eventually, she’s going to realize the craziness that’s been going on.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_67″>Hunter Jr. added that people were “taking advantage” of his mother’s income. “What’s been made more important by the people around her is that while her health may not be great, she needs to keep on earning income, and, in my opinion, that should not be a priority at all,” he continued. “And whoever has been hired, they are taking advantage of someone who needs to get better.”</p>
