The booker for radio host Wendy Williams has filed a complaint charging that Williams' husband harassed her for sex and that he physically abused Williams at the radio station.
According to the New York Post, Nicole Spence, Wendy Williams' talent booker at WBLS 107.5 FM filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission yesterday alleging that Williams' husband and manager, 33-year-old Kevin Hunter, tried to demand sex from her on repeated occasions.
Spence, 27, says in the complaint that Hunter harassed her for sex more than a dozen times and created a hostile work environment by repeatedly beating up Williams, 43.
"Mr. Hunter repeatedly sexually propositioned me at work in the most crude and vulgar ways, telling me over and over that he wanted to 'f*ck' me," Spence charges.
Williams and Hunter, who have a child together, both deny the allegations. The complaint has been filed against Williams as well as Inner City Broadcasting, the radio station owner, while Hunter, who works as his wife's manager, is named in the papers as an alleged perpetrator of the harassment.
"I also feared Mr. Hunter because he repeatedly physically assaulted Ms. Williams at or near the WBLS studio," Spence says in the complaint.
"In one instance, Mr. Hunter stormed into the studio, demanded that other employees leave and openly physically abused Ms. Williams, pinning her against the wall with his hand around her neck, choking her while repeatedly pounding his fist into the wall directly by her head."
When asked about Spence's complaint, Williams told The Post yesterday, "Her allegations are totally false. This b*tch is out of her mind."
Hunter added the allegations are "so far from the truth. It's insane."
Through her lawyer, Ken Thompson, Spence declined to comment for the Post.
In a previous interview with SOHH, Williams offered her own advice for women dealing with abusive boyfriends.
"Leave...Before you get pregnant or before he comes back to you with a ring," Williams told SOHH exclusively. "No woman deserves to get hit and relationships are complicated enough."
