To be real, he was definitely in his element back then—doing his thing, making moves, and getting all the attention. But honestly, that was just who he was. Anyone who knew Mr. Coles back then knew he was untouchable. You couldn’t tell him anything—he was doing whatever he wanted.
Still, I’ve got to give him some credit. He didn’t completely ruin her; he got her out of the station but didn’t erase her entirely. What he probably didn’t expect was for us to hustle like crazy, bounce back, and shock everyone. It was a lot of hard work, but we did it. In just three months, we brought BLS from the ground up, going from zero to 100. Even the competition couldn’t ignore us after that.
Fast forward six or seven years, and suddenly he’s on a couch singing her praises and trying to cozy up to her. He’s always been a smart guy, especially when it comes to playing the game.
Now it looks like Kevin Hunter Sr. is still trying to get back into Wendy Williams’ good graces, probably hoping she’ll start supporting him financially again. Why else would he be out here saying stuff like Diddy sending people after Wendy or how she was supposedly trying to warn us all about him?
Those of us from that era know how messy things could get, especially in hip-hop. Wendy was a huge voice back then, but she caught a lot of heat for speaking out. She went through the fire for calling things out, and now it’s like everything’s coming full circle. There were a lot of moments back then—some I’d rather not get into—that really shaped my career.
But Kevin’s timing here? It’s no coincidence. Right when Wendy is smiling again and seems like she’s gearing up to reclaim her purple chair, Kevin’s out here making headlines. He knows exactly what he’s doing.
Just a few weeks ago, he filed court papers trying to undo his settlement with Wendy, claiming fraud and misconduct. Basically, he’s still chasing her money.
He even brought up an affidavit from Wendy’s best friend, Regina Shell, who said that back in July 2022, while staying with Wendy, she saw her bank balance was in good shape. Regina also said Wendy was considering switching banks and had a meeting with Bank of America’s private banking group in December that year.
After the meeting, Wendy, her guardian Sabrina, and Regina went to the courthouse together. A few days later, Wendy’s publicist claimed to have overheard Sabrina telling Wendy there was no money in her account.
Kevin Hunter jumped on this, filing court documents accusing Wendy of hiding money to avoid paying him alimony. It’s not even the first time—he’s taken her to court multiple times, even questioning whether Sabrina has the legal authority to act as Wendy’s guardian.
Now, Kevin seems to be chiming in on the ongoing conversation about Diddy. Wendy has talked about Diddy for years, from pointing out the power imbalance in his relationship with Cassie to mentioning some unsettling things she’s heard about his parties. Back in 2009, she even invited former Bad Boy rapper Mark Curry onto her show to talk about his book Dancing with the Devil: How Puff Burned the Bad Boys of Hip-Hop. During the interview, Curry hinted at some shady behavior surrounding Diddy, and Wendy didn’t shy away from agreeing.
Over the years, Wendy has shared stories about how Diddy allegedly tried to derail her career. In her 2004 memoir, The Wendy Williams Experience, she accused him of sabotaging her and even suggested he played a role in her firing from a radio station. She also hinted at his involvement in the infamous 1999 nightclub incident with Jennifer Lopez.
That said, Wendy and Diddy eventually seemed to patch things up, and he appeared on her show. But fans couldn’t help noticing how awkward it was when Diddy mentioned meeting Wendy’s son, Kevin Jr., backstage. Wendy quickly thanked him for the compliment but seemed nervous, stumbling over her words as Diddy stared at her.
Fast forward to October 2024, and Wendy spoke out again during a phone interview with the Daily Mail. Reacting to the allegations against Diddy, she said:
“It’s weird—so many people have told me, ‘Wendy, you called it,’ even people in my own family. Seeing that video of Cassie being pummeled was horrific. But now you have to wonder, how many times has this happened? How many people? How many women? It’s just awful.”
People are saying Wendy tried to warn everyone about Diddy years ago. Interestingly, one of those voices is reportedly her ex-husband, Kevin Hunter.
Kevin has recently been talking about Wendy Williams’ suspension from her radio show, which occurred after she made comments about Diddy. He’s mentioned that while Wendy wasn’t exactly fired, Diddy likely used his influence to get her suspended. At the time, Diddy was a major figure in the music industry, and Kevin suggests that Diddy probably went to the higher-ups at the station to push for her suspension. This led to Kevin hiring a lawyer to help get Wendy out of her contract, as she was being moved into a role that wasn’t aligned with her original job.
Now, Kevin is bringing up the situation with Diddy and Wendy again, which some people are finding a little odd. His timing seems to coincide with reports that Wendy is doing better, and this has sparked speculation. Could Kevin be trying to position himself to get Wendy to give him money again, especially now that she might be improving?
As for Wendy’s health, she was spotted shopping in August 2024 and appeared to be doing okay. However, shortly after, reports came out saying that she had been diagnosed with early-onset dementia and was now cognitively impaired. Her guardian, Sabrina, filed legal documents saying Wendy was being exploited in a documentary called Where’s Wendy Williams. Sabrina claimed Wendy couldn’t consent to being filmed and that the documentary had been released without the proper contracts.
On the other hand, Lifetime and Entertainment One, the companies behind the documentary, argued that it was an honest portrayal of Wendy’s life under guardianship, and they wanted to protect the right to free speech. They countered that Sabrina was trying to block the documentary just to protect Wendy’s privacy, despite it offering a raw look at Wendy’s life.
More recently, Wendy was spotted looking happy and in good spirits while picking up food, leading some to believe that she might be improving. Given all this, it’s hard not to wonder if Kevin is using this opportunity to talk about Diddy and Wendy again because he sees a chance to resume alimony payments once Wendy’s health improves.
At this point, it seems like Kevin might be playing a game, possibly to secure money from Wendy if she gets back on her feet. People are definitely suspicious of his motives, especially since the timing feels so deliberate. It’s still unclear what will happen, but it’s a situation that’s definitely being closely watched.
