'He's A Real Gentleman': Wendy Williams Gushes Over Rumored New Beau Mike Esterman, Says The Two 'Are Having Fun'
Has Wendy Williams found a new man after divorcing her estranged ex Kevin Hunter? The talk show host sparked rumors of a relationship with businessman Mike Esterman after she shared a photo of the two via Instagram.
'HOW YOU DOING'... FOR REAL? DAYTIME DIVA WENDY WILLIAMS' MOST TROUBLING MOMENTS
“Mike & I are having fun!! I’m glad he's a REAL gentleman,” Williams captioned the snap of the two getting cozy in what appeared to be the backseat of a car on Friday, March 5.
Fans of the beloved talk show diva were quick to shower her with praise, congratulating her on finding a new beau after her messy divorce. “Wendy you deserve the world!” one user wrote, adding: "Mike treat her like a Queen:)😍.” Another commented, “Happy that you are happy!❤️❤️❤️.”
Williams and Esterman were also spotted leaving the CORE Club in New York together last Thursday. Williams was wearing a fabulous floor-length, fur-lined coat, while her rumored fling donned a blue sport coat, reported PEOPLE.
Fans of The Wendy Williams Show first met Esterman when he won the game “Date Wendy” on the daytime talker on February 26. Esterman was virtually introduced to Williams and told her he works in “real estate and home improvement.” The pair talked about what their ideal date was — a boxing match — as well as their favorite foods.
Williams eventually asked the 55-year-old, “Why are you the one for me?,” to which he replied: “It seems like we have a lot in common… I’m a guy that loves to have fun and you seem like the same type of fun person that I would love to get to know, and if you’re feeling the fever I’ve got a prescription.”
