Her new beau? He's a doctor.
Wendy Williams returned from a five-week break from her talk show on Monday morning and made herself the Hot Topic of the morning with some big news: she's got a new man.
While Williams was photographed all over New York City with 27-year-old Marc Tomblin during her hiatus, she insists he's not who she's currently dating.
"I'm not on the market anymore," she revealed, getting both giddy and emotional as she spoke to her studio audience. "I'm not in love. I'm not in love ... but there's somebody that I'm crazy about."

Addressing photos of her holding hands with Tomblin, Williams said she does that with everyone. "So Mark is new to New York and he's having panic attacks and I'm unsteady on my feet, I got the vertigo," she also added. Regarding those shots of Tomblin holding clothing bags while out together on a shopping spree, Williams said he was holding her clothes.
"You's all thinking I'm messing around with a 27 year old ... I get it, but when it comes time for the comfort of a man, I need somebody in his 50s too," she then explained, getting the audience in an uproar.

She also said her new man, who shall remain nameless for now, is in great shape.
During her first episode back, Williams also addressed a headline from the Globe saying Williams was getting "sweet revenge as $50 million divorce turns ugly."
While she didn't bring up ex Kevin Hunter directly, she said only this: "When I saw this, I almost passed out right there. I bought all of them at the airport. Listen, my family is doing fine and I am doing fine."
