Wendy Williams breaks down in tears on-air after enjoying a night of 'appropriate fun' with Blac Chyna following a difficult few months
Wendy Williams is finally starting to enjoy herself again after a challenging few months in her personal life.
The 54-year-old talk show host got choked up on-air as she told the audience about her fun evening out with Blac Chyna during Thursday's live episode of The Wendy Williams show.
The outing comes as Wendy has been dealing with a particularly nasty divorce from her husband of two decades, Kevin Hunter.

On Wednesday night the New Jersey native stepped out in NYC with a group that included reality star Blac Chyna and Wendy's 18-year-old son Kevin Jr.
The reality star was a guest on Wendy's show earlier that day where she revealed plans for a new docu-series following her life post Rob Kardashian.
During the show the following day, Wendy shared some details about the evening with her studio audience, telling them how they had a great time dancing to the music.
'Everybody was so embarrassed in a fun way, you know what I mean?' she said with a big smile.

Wendy then started to get emotional as she explained that her son got to witness his mom having some good-natured fun.
'Kev looks at me like "look at mommy have fun," she said. Adding that it was 'appropriate fun.'
An important distinction since the iconic daytime television host has struggled with a relapse into her drug and alcohol addiction over the last year.
She continued: 'Look at my boy over there, you know, looking at his mom have fun.'

At this point Wendy couldn't hold back her tears and as she broke down, the audience cheered in support of the beloved star.
'It's nice,' she said through the tears.
An audience member shouted: 'We love you Wendy!'

While Wendy and Chyna stepped out together, Williams told a TMZ cameraman that the single life was 'wonderful' and she was 'making friends.'
A night of fun seemed long overdue for Wendy who has been going through a bitter split from her husband following the revelation that he had a longterm mistress, which subsequently led to her addition relapse.
Their split was both personal and professional. Wendy fired Kevin as an executive producer on her talk show and as her manager after she served him with divorce papers.
Hunter is demanding spousal and child support from his bread-winning former boss.

In addition, Hunter requested that Wendy be financially responsible for Kevin Jr.'s college expenses.
Kevin's response comes weeks after Wendy served him with divorce papers at her television studio in New York.
Wendy filed marriage dissolution paperwork after DailyMail.com broke the news of Kevin's decade long affair with a massage therapist named Sharina Hudson.
News of the affair and, subsequently, the love child that Sharina quietly gave birth to earlier this year, pushed Wendy to an unfortunate relapse into drugs and alcohol abuse.

She took a prolonged absence from her talk show at the end of 2018 and through the start of the new year and, at the time, claimed it was for medical reasons.
After DailyMail revealed that she was actually seeking treatment for substance abuse, Wendy shared her story with fans.
Following the continuation of Kevin's affair, which he flaunted in front of the public by taking the mistress out to dinners decked out in pricey clothes and in expensive cars, Wendy decided enough was enough.
