Her caretaker, Ginalia Monterrosa, accompanied her at the hospital, and Williams asked her to “elaborate on everything.”

Ginalia then told the show’s anchor, "She had those tests, she’s been deemed she is not incapacitated. I think it’s great news, and it’s public, and everybody knows factually that Wendy’s not incapacitated.”

Ginalia later revealed that she called the NYPD for a welfare check on Wendy because “there isn’t anything right now that legally allows Wendy to bring an attorney on board.”
