Last week former daytime talk show host Wendy Williams was barred by her court ordered guardian from having dinner with her new high-powered personal attorney Joe Tacopina [click here if you missed that].
The very next day Wendy was allowed to got to dinner with former CNN anchor Don Lemon....
From TMZ
Wendy was all smiles Thursday night in NYC, as she was granted permission to go out to dinner with her niece Alex Finnie, Don Lemon, and his husband Tim Malone. The foursome hit up Italian eatery Il Cantinori in Greenwich village, and it's no wonder Wendy looked so happy -- because just 24 hours earlier, the guardianship refused to let her leave the facility.
TMZ broke the story ... Wendy was less than an hour from a Wednesday night dinner reservation when her guardian blocked her from leaving. While Wendy wasn't told why she couldn't go, it's looking clearer now.
On Wednesday, she was going out to eat with her niece ... and also powerhouse attorney Joe Tacopina -- he's now Wendy's personal lawyer, and intends to push hard to end the guardianship.
As we reported, Wendy's guardian, Sabrina Morrisey, had her lawyer send TMZ a letter ... claiming Wendy is free to leave the facility to see family whenever she wants -- so, Wednesday night's denial seems to fly in the face of that.
The only difference between Wednesday and Thursday ... the presence of Mr. Tacopina, who's gotta be feeling like the guardianship doesn't want him conferring with his client ... especially after he rejected the guardianship.
