can’t seem to get a break. The
show recently released a statement
Wendy won’t be back
in her purple chair until at
least February 2022. So guest
hosts will continue to appear
in Wendy’s place throughout
January when the show returns
from its holiday hiatus. Fan
favorite Sherri Shepherd had
to miss her Dec. 13 return to
substituting for Wendy after
undergoing emergency appendicitis
surgery shortly after she
arrived in New York City on
Dec. 12. The TV Personality/
actress was previously scheduled
to serve as guest host all
week, but Michael Rapaport had
to step in for her until she felt
better. Meanwhile, Wendy was
spotted walking hand-in-hand
with her son, Kevin Hunter Jr.,
as they strolled around Manhattan
together. Wendy was
wearing a blue fur coat and
white Ugg boots trimmed in
Tibetan Lamb.
