Wendy Williams hired a private investigator to follow her husband Kevin Hunter

Wendy Williams hired a private investigator to spy on her then husband.

The 56-year-old talk show host filed for divorce from Kevin Hunter in April 2019 after he had a child with another woman, but she admitted that she had known about her infidelity for some time, but was “methodically planning” the best way to let her marriage.

‘I was keeping secrets,’ said the star to E! News ‘Daily Pop.’ It wasn’t about being vulnerable. It was a matter of waiting for the right time, because he methodically planned to leave the wedding. I was still playing “I love you, I love you”, Wendy ‘, said the former DJ.

‘This is what a smart girl does if she is playing the role of being the loving wife. In the meantime, you know, the [private investigator] I was following them on vacation, ‘she added.

‘The PI followed her for her GYN consultations. The investigator ended up discovering that the girl was pregnant. ‘

The woman is Sharina Hudson.

According to Wendy, it was not the first time the woman became pregnant, but it was the first baby she ‘had with him’.

And the host was also reluctant to speak at the time because of her and Kevin’s son Kevin Jr., now 20.

She said: ‘I just let the headlines speak for themselves.

‘I couldn’t talk to you about everything that was going on until I could sit and talk to my son. And my ex-husband was acting out of order. So, you all didn’t know that and I wasn’t going to talk about those things. I was going to save it for the movie. ‘

The story will unfold in Lifetime’s next biopic Wendy Williams: The Movie and Wendy explained that she agreed to the project because it felt like the right time, having previously rejected network approaches.

Asked why now, she said, ‘Because Lifetime came up with the proposal I wanted. Things just never worked out. But that was when I was still married. I am in a different period of my life. Lifetime called. And I answered. ‘

Wendy called her ex-husband mommy baby Kevin for the first time on her popular daytime show.

On Tuesday, the hostess wore a bright yellow dress while sipping coffee and making shocking comments about the program.

‘Welcome to popular topics, Sharina Hudson!’ said Williams. ‘Getting out of my car … with my money.’

Then she mentioned the baby Kevin had with the masseuse Sharina: ‘She will be almost three – I think she will be three next month, don’t you know?

Then she said hello to your ex. “Good morning, Kelvin,” she said. Kelvin is Kevin’s legal name. “It’s my truth.”

Also this week she called Hunter a ‘serial cheat’.

The host filed for a divorce from Hunter in April 2019, after he had a child with another woman, but she admitted that her infidelity was not a shock because he slept with others during his 21-year marriage.

‘We have been married for almost 22 years. We’ve been together for 25 years, ‘she told SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show. – I don’t regret the day I met him. I don’t regret enduring it for all 25 years – and it has nothing to do with him having this baby or him having a secondary girl for almost 15 years of our marriage. ‘

She added: ‘I have known her almost from the beginning. I know that Kevin is a serial cheater. ‘

Wendy discovered that the 48-year-old producer had been unfaithful while she was pregnant with her son Kevin Jr., now 20.

She continued: ‘The first time I found out was while I was pregnant with our child [Kevin Hunter Jr.] in bed rest. During that time that I gave birth to him, he was in the delivery room. … he’s handing out cigars and [saying], you know, ‘My wife and me and little Kev.’ ‘

Wendy ‘planned to divorce’ from Kevin and is happy with the way things worked out for her.

She said: ‘I sacrificed a lot to be successful on the other side, and everything worked.’

The Ask Wendy writer previously admitted that Kevin’s ‘great indiscretion’ in fathering another child was the last straw for her.

She said: ‘Kevin had a great indiscretion, which he will have to deal with for the rest of his life. An indiscretion that I will not deal with.

‘I never thought I would be in this position. I am a forgiving person, but there is one thing that I could never be a part of, and that thing happened. ‘

This happens after Williams said he wants his next boyfriend to come out of the spotlight.

The presenter wants her future partner not to be famous like her or even in the showbiz industry, but insists he must have a “business sense of humor”.

She shared: ‘I am 56 now. I’m a mom, I’m not a single woman running around town with [rappers and DJs] like Eric B more. Those days are over.

‘My next boyfriend, I hope he becomes a husband, I don’t want him to be in this business. He has to appreciate my humor and have a sense of humor for the business I’m in, and not try to stop me. But he must also be very, very comfortable with the man he is. And he must be 45 or older. ‘

And Wendy – who finalized her divorce from Kevin last year after 22 years of marriage – is excited to have more say in her career and her future goals.

And discussing her future career moves, she added to Entertainment Tonight: ‘Now that I’m my own boss, instead of having Kevin bossing me around and telling me what to do and me playing the part, I’m in everything. Now I would like to produce more stuff. And those things would be for other people to star in, not me – I’m not an actress.

‘I enjoyed being part of the writing process, and I would also like to sit in that director’s chair one day. Just to be an associate director or something. ‘
