“I was with my friend, who is also my jeweler,” Wendy said of William. “I’m probably one of his low-paying clients. I’m not buying jewelry all the time. He fixes stuff, shines stuff, he’s made a couple of pieces for me. I like Will a whole lot. Will is involved with his family.” Wendy also added that it was a coincidence that their outfits were color coordinated. William rocked a brown coat and Wendy wore a beige negligee.

Wendy also pointed out that if William was her boyfriend that she would keep their relationship lowkey. “Will is my friend, we are not a couple and I do not have a boyfriend. That’s it. If I did, I wouldn’t have been out with Will.”

As OK! readers might recall, Wendy finalized her divorce with ex-husband, Kevin Hunter, on January 23. Back in April 2019, Wendy filed for divorce after Kevin 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 Wendy filed for divorce. “I am going through a time of self-reflection and am trying to right some wrongs.”
