Wendy Williams gave fans an update on her health, after taking a brief hiatus from her talk show.

The famed host assured her fans that she’s ‘doing everything she can to get back to work’.

Williams however did not give a return date, after contracting a ‘breakthrough case of Covid-19’ in September.

Taking to Instagram in a statement, the presenter said, “HOW YOU DOIN’? I MISS YOU ALL! As everyone knows, my health has been a hot topic. I’m making progress but it’s just one of those things that are taking longer than we expected.”

She added, “I’m a woman of a certain age, and I know enough to listen to my doctors and will return to my purple chair as soon as we all agree I’m ready. I want to thank all of my staff and our guest hosts for stepping up and stepping in while I can’t be there.”

In September, Williams was rushed to the hospital for a mental health check-up. She is currently battling a chronic condition called lymphoedema.
