The talk show host provided more candid details about her current situation, adding: "I have to tell you, you know, I’ve been dealing with issues with addiction, alcoholism, and I have a whole new life that I planned for myself and my son ... Believe me you, when you lay in a room with no TV and four gray walls all day … this is my life in the sober house, it’s one of the best things, honestly, that could have ever happened to me." Previously, Williams shared even more about her life in the house. "Doors locked by 10 p.m., lights out by 10 p.m. So I go to my room and I stare at my ceiling and I fall asleep to wake up to come back here to see you," she told her TV audience. "So that is my truth."<doc-sep>Wendy Williams announced on The Wendy Show Monday that she plans to leave the sober house where she currently lives.
