Wendy Williams Wears Tiara for Birthday Celebration Amid Divorce Drama

Wendy Williams plastered on a smile and wore a tiara one day ahead of her birthday, despite her ongoing divorce battle.

The daytime talk show host was spotted leaving work on the eve of turning 55 with a giant crown fit for a beauty queen on Wednesday.

She seemed in great spirits, despite this being the first birthday in 21 years without her husband.

Waving to onlookers who sang "Happy Birthday" and photographers that snapped away, it appeared that her divorce drama is the furthest thing on her mind.

That might have something to do with her cast and crew, who celebrated Wendy's birthday -- which happens to be tomorrow -- one day early at work.

A work colleague was spotted carrying a colorful cake into the studio.

The two tiered dessert looked delicious with a lower half full of sprinkles and purple icing with matching topper for the star.

Wendy also got some special deliveries in the form of presents.

A car full of wrapped gifts and shopping bags arrived, with one branding her name from someone named Jazz.

Wendy and her estranged husband, Kevin Hunter Jr., are currently battling it out in their divorce case and had one major hiccup in the process which involved their son, 19-year-old Kevin Jr.

As The Blast reported, Kevin Jr. got into a physical altercation in June that resulted in cops being called. He went to court and the assault charges were dropped because the case was dismissed.

Wendy recently came back to work after taking some time off to travel.

She also revealed she's in a new relationship. With tears streaming down her face, Wendy dished the goods.

So, maybe that smile is because of her birthday -- or maybe it's for her new man.
