ASBURY PARK, NJ – As of the evening of June 23, 2025, there are no credible news reports or official statements confirming any recent incident, tragic or otherwise, involving television personality Wendy Williams in Asbury Park, New Jersey.

Claims circulating on social media suggesting a significant event occurred involving Ms. Williams in the coastal city are unsubstantiated by facts from reputable news organizations or information from her verified representatives.

Recent, verified news concerning Ms. Williams has centered on legal matters involving her court-mandated guardianship. Within the past week, numerous reports have detailed a $250 million lawsuit filed by her ex-husband, Kevin Hunter, against her guardian. Ms. Williams herself has publicly disavowed the lawsuit, telling celebrity news outlet TMZ that she had no knowledge of it and is not involved.

Searches for any recent events connected to Ms. Williams in Asbury Park, the city where she was born, have not yielded any information from law enforcement, emergency services, or her publicity team. The most recent verified reports of her presence in Asbury Park are from March 2023, when she was reportedly filming for an upcoming project.

In the absence of credible information, and with official news channels remaining silent on the matter, the reports of a “sad” event in Asbury Park should be treated as unfounded rumors. It is a common occurrence for misinformation and celebrity-focused hoaxes to spread rapidly online. Journalists and responsible reporting rely on verification and official sources before publication, none of which are available to support the alleged incident.
