One day after her team revealed her diagnosis with primary progressive aphasia and dementia, Wendy Williams has broken her silence on the matter.

“I want to say I have immense gratitude for the love and kind words I have received after sharing my diagnosis of Aphasia and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD). Let me say, wow! Your response has been overwhelming,” the former talk show host, 59, released in a Friday, February 23, statement. “The messages shared with me have touched me, reminding me of the power of unity and the need for compassion.”

The Wendy Williams Show host carried on in the statement, advocating for those whose stories and experiences with FTD have gone unnoticed.

“I want to also thank the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration for their kind words of support and their extraordinary efforts to raise awareness of FTD,” Wendy concluded.
