Wendy Williams has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and apahasia.

According to a press release shared on Thursday, Williams received the diagnosis in 2023 "after undergoing a battery of medical tests."

"Over the past few years, questions have been raised at times about Wendy's ability to process information and many have speculated about Wendy's condition, particularly when she began to lose words, act erratically at times, and have difficulty understanding financial transactions," the statement read.

Frontotemporal dementia, also referred to as FTD, is the "result of damage to neurons in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain," according to the National Institute of Aging, and include symptoms of "unusual behaviors, emotional problems, trouble communicating, difficulty with work, or difficulty with walking."

The Mayo Clinic defines apahasia as a "disorder that affects how you communicate" and usually happens suddenly after a stroke or a head injury.

"The decision to share this news was difficult and made after careful consideration, not only to advocate for understanding and compassion for Wendy, but to raise awareness about aphasia and frontotemporal dementia and support the thousands of others facing similar circumstances," the statement said. "Unfortunately, many individuals diagnosed with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia face stigma and misunderstanding, particularly when they begin to exhibit behavioral changes but have not yet received a diagnosis."

The statement concluded how Williams, 59, "is still able to do many things for herself. Most importantly she maintains her trademark sense of humor and is receiving the care she requires to make sure she is protected and that her needs are addressed."

The former 'The Wendy Williams Show' talk show host and her family will address rumors regarding Williams' health, reported alcohol abuse and cognitive abilities in a new Lifetime documentary.

'Where Is Wendy Williams?' premieres on Saturday, Feb. 24.
