Wendy Williams and Kevin Hunter’s divorce was finalized in New Jersey on January 22. The talk show host and her ex-husband were married for nearly 22 years and split after Kevin allegedly fathered a child with his mistress.
Wendy, 55, filed for divorce in April 2019 after Kevin, 47, had an alleged love child with Sharina Hudson. “I am not proud of my recent actions and take full accountability and apologize to my wife, my family and her amazing fans,” Kevin said in a statement after she filed for divorce. “I am going through a time of self-reflection and am trying to right some wrongs.”
“Infidelity is one thing. A full baby is a whole other topic, okay?” Wendy said on The View in September 2019. “I’m not changing Pampers, I want to be pampered.”
The couple resided in Livingston, NJ and is splitting the proceeds for that home, according to court documents obtained by Page Six. The home was originally listed for $1.9 million and was later reduced to $1.7 million. When the couple split Wendy paid Kevin $250,000 for him to get new housing.
Kevin, however, gets to keep the proceeds from another home he owned and sold in Morristown, NJ. He also gets to keep his Ferrari and Rolls-Royce.

The couple also had equal shares in Wendy Williams Productions Inc. According to the settlement, Wendy will be the sole owner but she has to pay Kevin for his share of the production company and a severance package.
The talk show host is also responsible for paying Kevin’s health insurance under their current policy. Wendy had the option of removing Kevin as a recipient of her $1 million life insurance policy should she die, but opted to keep him as a beneficiary. She does, however, have the right to reduce the amount on a yearly basis. Their son, Kevin Jr., is presumably the other beneficiary.
Wendy gets to walk away with the money from their joint bank account.
Lastly, the two agreed to pay their own legal fees and will not pay any alimony.
