Friday 28 October 2022 10:22 PM Wendy Williams spotted out on a trip to Costco - two months after booking ... trends now
Wendy Williams stepped out in New York City wearing eye-catching fuzzy black boots and tiny shorts as she headed to Costco, nearly two months after she booked herself into rehab to focus on her health.
The former TV personality, 58, was seen wearing a military green cropped puffer jacket with a fur-lined hood, black fuzzy boots, and tiny jean shorts, despite the brisk weather in the Big Apple on Friday.
She wore her auburn hair straight and carried a black purse.
It's not the first time Williams has been caught wearing the exotic boots. She was seen wearing the statement piece in December and February and white pair in March.
Williams was reportedly inside the store for only 10 minutes to speak with the customer service desk, before she was seen strolling out of the store with an empty cart and her bodyguard.
It's the first time Williams has been seen since she announced she was checking herself into rehab in September to 'take some time to focus on her health and wellness,' her publicist said at the time.
A source told Page Six that the 58-year-old's substance issues have 'gotten worse,' as 'she went from [drinking] wine to straight up vodka.'

It was not clear where the TV personality was seeking help, as she has previously been in treatment at locations in New York and Florida.
Williams 'is being treated by a team of some of the best doctors in the world,' her publicist Shawn Zanotti told The Sun at the time, adding that Williams is preparing 'for a major comeback for the next level in her career with The Wendy Experience Podcast.'
Williams has had difficulties in controlling her drinking, to the detriment of her overall health, which was 'failing,' sources told The U.S. Sun, adding, 'She can't stop drinking and she needs to stop drinking; it's just making her health worse.'
Sources told Page Six that the production company for her one-time series, Debmar-Mercury, 'refused' to assist in the effort to get Williams help amid her issues. The source said, 'They turned their backs on her,' and 'had too much control over someone so vulnerable.'
Williams' ex-husband Kevin Hunter, 50, told the outlet this past July that 'Debmar would not support Wendy's recovery efforts with the family,' as 'they would not sign off on anything that would've helped her recovery efforts.'
Hunter told the outlet about a meeting between reps with the company
