Wendy Williams’ official Instagram account marked Mother’s Day with a heartfelt message to all moms — but noticeably left out any mention of her own son, Kevin Hunter Jr.
The post, shared Saturday on Wendy’s verified account, featured a short video expressing gratitude and support to mothers around the world. However, the message didn’t include any personal reflection or reference to Wendy’s role as a mother herself.
The caption read:
“HAPPY MOTHERS’ DAY TO ALL MOMS. We’d also like to take this time to say THANK YOU to each and every one of you who have gotten behind exposing this horrific situation. Every prayer, every like, every comment, every video, every signature on our petitions, WENDY THANKS YOU!!! We ask for your continued alliance as we continue to push forward with actions. Updates coming soon!!”
It’s unclear whether Wendy personally crafted the post or if her social media is currently managed by someone else — but the omission of Kevin, her only child, speaks volumes given their strained relationship.
A Complicated Mother-Son Bond
Wendy’s relationship with her son has been a focal point of her recent personal battles. In her emotional interview on the “2 Angry Men” podcast with TMZ’s Harvey Levin and attorney Mark Geragos, Wendy revealed that she feels Kevin misused her money, a betrayal she believes contributed to her controversial guardianship situation.
Despite everything, Wendy told Harvey and Mark that she still loves and forgives her son. Yet, in the documentary “Where Is Wendy Williams?”, she expressed deep disappointment, stating Kevin Jr. hasn’t been acting in her best interest.
The two briefly reunited earlier this year in February, coming together to celebrate Wendy’s father’s 94th birthday. However, there’s been little sign of lasting reconciliation between mother and son since then.
Supporters Rally Behind Wendy’s Legal Battle
The Mother’s Day post focused instead on thanking fans and followers who have stood by Wendy during her ongoing legal and personal challenges — particularly her fight to remove her court-appointed guardianship, which she has likened to living in “prison.”
The message encouraged supporters to stay engaged and promised updates “coming soon” regarding Wendy’s next steps.
The Silence Speaks Loudly
While Wendy continues to show strength and gratitude toward her supporters, the absence of Kevin’s name from her Mother’s Day tribute highlights the ongoing emotional distance between them — a painful contrast to the message’s celebration of motherhood.
