Wendy Williams seems to be looking good and feeling fabulous on her commercials for her new syndicated daily TV show, due to premiere next month.

But there seems to be consistent trouble in paradise when it comes to her family matters.

The latest ordeal to chip away at the armor of the problem-prone renowned radio shock jock is an explosive federal lawsuit charge alleging that her husband plotted to kill a Hot 97 rival deejay for bad mouthing his wife on the air.

Say what?

In a lawsuit filed on June 11 at Manhattan Federal Court, Nicole Spence – a former intimate of Williams – charges that Kevin Hunter, who is married to Williams, sought out a male WBLS employee for help in finding a hit man to rub out Hot97 personality Tarsha Jones.

"The office is run by street gangster tactics," the legal papers reportedly states.

The allegations are included in a federal sexual-harassment lawsuit filed by the 29-year-old talent booker, who was once an intern and a personal assistant for Williams' top-rated afternoon radio show, 'The Wendy Williams Experience,' which is broadcast live from the black-owned New York City radio station WBLS.

Williams, who has remained mum about the scandal since it first broke in March, has continued her steadfast professional work style in the midst of the debilitating controversy.

Her long-anticipated TV talk show will start airing on Fox-owned television stations in New York (WNYW), Los Angeles (KTTV), Dallas (KDFW) and Detroit (WJBK) on July 14.

As previously reported by BlackVoices.com, it will feature Williams' commentary on celebrity gossip and news events, as well as interviews, fashion and advice segments in which Williams will help audience members and viewers handle personal life issues involving sex, relationships, money and dating.

Spence, who said her complaints to the radio station's management were ignored, is reportedly represented by lawyer Kenneth Thompson, who last year won an $8 million sexual harassment verdict for Kim Osorio against 'The Source' magazine, the bible of the hip-hop industry.

She is seeking unspecified damages from Williams, Hunter and the Inner City Broadcasting Corp., parent company of WBLS.
