Who was Wendy Williams’ second husband?

Williams found love again with Kevin Hunter. Hunter is an executive producer and publisher although he’s most well known for being Wendy’s manager. He’s served as producer for a lot of her projects including The Wendy Williams Show and Death by Gossip. However, when the pair met in 1994 Hunter actually didn’t have any previous experience in show business; according to Yahoo, he was the owner of a beauty parlor. It’s safe to say that he got his start in show business through Wendy. The couple went on to marry in 1999 and have a son, Kevin Jr., in 2000.

Whilst things seemed to initially be going better for Williams compared to her last relationship she would later explain that Hunter had been cheating on her throughout their relationship. Speaking with Business Insider in 2021 the talk show host revealed the extent of his adultery, “Kevin was a serial cheat. He cheated when I dated him. He cheated when I married him. He cheated while I was on bed rest during the entire nine months of me being pregnant.” She also revealed that she had been planning on divorcing her husband since before their son was born, “I went into the delivery room knowing in my mind, ‘I’m planning my divorce,'” Ultimately they ended their marriage in 2019 after reports that Hunter had fathered a child with a mistress.

When explaining why things didn’t end between the two sooner, Williams said that the talk show getting bigger and her son were her two main reasons. Prior to their divorce Williams had shut down accusations of her husband’s infidelity.
