A "GUILTY" PRESENT?

The story about the pricey gift surfaced in the midst of rumors that Hunter's longtime mistress Sharina Hudson, 33, gave birth to a baby girl on March 25. Immediately after, Williams, who was in rehab for prescription drug and alcohol addiction had a relapse.

At the time Hudson was giving birth, Williams was living in a sober house in Queens, fighting her addiction. On the day the news of the baby's birth became public, Williams had a relapse and was found unconscious by her assistant and rushed to the hospital.

WENDY WILLIAMS' FRIENDS AND FANS OUTRAGED

Friends of the talk show host are angered and feel that the expensive gift is Hunter's way of buying Williams' forgiveness - with her own money:

“There is a discussion about what happens now — everyone is asking, ‘How can they possibly stay together?’ Wendy still loves Kevin, but her health is at stake. They are so tangled up together in business, so they are carefully looking at what a separation could entail. It will be difficult.”

Wendy Williams has stated that she is "still in love" with her husband and that she will not be divorcing him. The couple shares an 19-year-old son, Kevin Jr.
