Wendy Williams has broken her silence on Sean “Diddy” Combs’ arrest and the ongoing legal case.
“What is really weird is that I have been told by so many people, ‘Wendy, you called it,’” Williams, 60, said to the Daily Mail on Tuesday, October 1. “Including some people from my family who have said the same.”
Williams, who has suffered from a series of health issues in recent years, has been openly critical of Diddy, 54, throughout her career. The former television host added that she was horrified over the security footage of Diddy allegedly beating his ex-girlfriend, Cassie (real name Cassandra Ventura), which was released earlier this year.
“You know how I feel about that? It is about time. To see this video on TV of [Cassie] getting pummeled… it was just horrific.” she said to the outlet on Tuesday. “But now you have to think, how many more times? How many people? How many more women? It’s just so horrible.”
Last month, Diddy was arrested in New York after being indicted on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution. The rapper has refuted all the allegations against him and pleaded not guilty. He is currently in jail at the Metropolitan Detention Center, awaiting trial.
