Drama and tension escalates in Wendy Williams’ life after her son, Kevin Hunter Jr was arrested for allegedly assaulting his father, Wendy’s estranged husband, Kevin Hunter Sr.

Kevin Jr allegedly smacked his 46-year-old father in the nose in order to free himself from a headlock that Hunter had put him in.

Kevin Hunter Sr, told officers he was hit by his son and was ‘bleeding’, according to the file. He however, denied striking his son and reported that he only wrestled with the teen after being struck in the face.

The father later said in a statement that he would not be pressing charges. Hunter told TMZ: ‘I love my son very much and I will not be pursuing this matter legally. Things are not always how they appear.’

Kevin Hunter Jr was given a court date for June 25 and released.

Wendy had filed for divorce from Hunter and fired him as her manager and producer on The Wendy Williams Show in the wake of the revelation Hunter’s decade-long mistress Sharina Hudson had his baby.

In December 2018, Wendy suspected the two were still carrying on and hired a private investigator to follow Hunter.

After being told the secret affair was still very much alive, Wendy confronted Hunter demanding to know why he was still seeing the qualified massage therapist.

During the heated clash, it’s believed Williams fell and hit her shoulder on the ground, suffering a hairline fracture.

She then returned to New York where she entered a sober living house in Queens, which was exclusively revealed by DailyMailTV in March.

But she suffered a relapse and went on a booze bender after learning Hudson had given birth to Hunter’s child.
