Wendy Williams smiles & laughs in rare photo as she reunites with estranged friend DJ Boof after her show is canceled
WENDY Williams smiled & laughed in rare photo as she reunited with her estranged friend DJ Boof over the weekend.
The talk show host and the DJ were not on speaking terms after he unceremoniously left her show in 2021.
The two seemed to have made amends after the DJ shared a photo on of the pair together.
He was reportedly in town working a gig over Spring Break, prompting their meet up.
There didn’t appear to be any hard feelings as Wendy smiled at her pal who jokingly held his fingers to his ears.
He laughed about the encounter in the caption, writing: “I don’t wanna hear it🤣 ‘2022’”

Boof left the Wendy Williams Show prior to its cancellation, previously admitting that he was concerned with his ailing colleagues behavior.
“Y’all have no idea what’s really going on and everyone there is afraid to speak up because they don’t wanna lose their jobs…
“This is going to play out bad… I feel sorry for the workers and victims.”
When Wendy returned for the new fall season, DJ Boof was not on set with Power 105.1 personality, DJ Suss One, instead of making his series debut.
The show’s former was reportedly fired.
Wendy and Boof spent a lot of time together during last year’s pandemic quarantine often referring to him as her “special friend.”
Wendy responded to those who ask why the two are not official saying: “We’re official friends!”
The 57-year-old New Jersey native, has not appeared on her show since July 2021 due to a series of health issues.
Sherri Shepherd was announced last month as her replacement on the broadcast.
‘PULLING THROUGH’
Wendy’s brother Tommy Williams recently opened up about how his sister was faring since her show’s cancellation.
The 54-year-old posted a photo with the veteran host and a slew of other close family members in Florida along with a lengthy caption updating her fans on her condition.
Tommy captioned the snap which was shared to a private Wendy Williams Facebook fan group, writing: “I’m encouraging everyone to remain faithful that our girl Wendy will pull through this fog, push through the clouds into the light!”
Wendy’s younger brother added that while his sister is “recovering and strengthening daily,” he hasn’t been posting as much lately.
He said: “I’ve been away from my platform for a while as we circle the wagons and deal with the reality that family needs me. There is no script, views or ratings attached to genuine support.”
“You all have exemplified support for my family and we are truly grateful,” he added before encouraging people to subscribe to his for more updates on his sister’s progress.
Wendy continues to battle a string of health problems, which kicked off when The Sun exclusively reported she was rushed to the hospital for “psychiatric services.”
Ever since then, sources have said the once witty, sharp host isn’t the same as she used to be as she deals with multiple medical problems, including addiction, Graves’ disease, and Covid.
THOUGHTS ON SHERRI
As for Sherri taking over, Wendy is said to feel “disrespected” about the decision.
An insider told the Sun exclusively: “Sherri’s show was announced on The Wendy Williams Show, with Wendy’s audience and with all of her followers.

“Wendy has 2.6 million subscribers on her YouTube alone. That’s Wendy’s YouTube! She built that following, not Sherri, not the production company.”
The source added: “It was bad enough they canceled her show and gave Sherri her own daytime talk show which is set to take over Wendy’s time slot. It was a total slap in the face for it to be announced on Wendy’s show and her platforms.”
