Wearing her favorite shoes as of late, a simple pair of white Keds, Wendy stepped out looking busier than ever taking a phone call.

She was dressed in a classic long V-neck black cotton dress  and a black jacket that appeared a size or two too big for her. 

The coat featured a large cartoon bee on the breast pocket. The mother of one's blonde tresses were kept down in a straight blowout.

A lover of luxury accessories, Wendy rocked a huge white quilted leather Chanel bag slung over one shoulder.

The star is in the midst of getting back on track in her recovery from drug and alcohol addiction while dealing with the end of her 21-year marriage.

Wendy's estranged ex, Kevin Hunter, reportedly blames his former wife for the souring of his relationship with their only child, Kevin Jr., which lead to a physical altercation.

Kevin Jr., 19, reportedly punched his father in the face last week and was subsequently arrested for assault following an argument over the couple's divorce.

Kevin Sr. later accused Wendy of 'poisoning his relationship with their son' TMZ reported. 

The altercation is allegedly just the latest in simmering tensions between father and son, according to the gossip site.

'Kevin Sr. has made several attempts in recent weeks to spend time with his son to repair the relationship, but he got the cold shoulder,' said TMZ's sources.

The fractured relationship reportedly stemmed from an ongoing affair between Hunter Sr. and his mistress Sharina Hudson.

DailyMail.com broke news of the ongoing tryst in April - and the scandal led Williams to file for divorce from her husband of 22 years.

Hunter had been living the high life with his mistress in a secret hideaway in New Jersey after she gave birth to their daughter, all while the TV host has been battling an addiction to alcohol and pills brought on by their affair.

Wendy also banned Kevin -a former Executive Producer on her show- from The Wendy Williams Show set and fired him as her manager.

Troubled: The fight was allegedly about Kevin Sr.'s affair, which led not only to Wendy filing for divorce but also for her spiral back into addiction, from which she is currently in recovery
