Last week on her show, the talk show host said that unlike many of her employees, she doesn't believe that Jenner staged the photos to get higher ratings on his 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer and then added that she feels like Jenner is only seeking money like the rest of the Kardashian clan.
Williams said that she feels betrayed by Jenner because he's a 'fame whore' just like the rest of the family.

Since the interview, Williams has had a little change of heart about the former gold medal Olympian.
"I must say, I cried the whole time [watching the interview]. I'm happy for Bruce. I'm happy for anybody who can live in their own truth," said Williams, adding that, "He is brave because his life will never be the same... He'll be hunted like a wild dog for the rest of his life."
Clearly Jenner's supporters are still not happy with Williams and they are responding to her hurtful comments via Twitter.
