Wendy Williams has said that she's officially over the "@ Home" editions of her popular talk show.

On Wednesday, the 55-year-old addressed her fans on social media from her home in New York. She proceeded to explain why she's putting a stop to the remote filming of her daytime show.

"Hi! It's me from home, and hopefully for not too long... I'm waiting for the state of New York to say that we as a show can go back,' Williams said.

She recently put the show on hold in order to deal with health issues related to Graves' disease.

"We have 200 people in our audience, we'll never have that again, but I want to go back to doing our show. Nothing makes me happier than to be Wendy on The Wendy Show...," she continued.

'You know what I mean? I got the love, and the boyfriends, and all that kinda stuff. I'm in my house... but what I want the most, is to be with you. I miss you. I miss you a lot."

"The goal is to be back in studio as soon as we are allowed," a spokesperson for the Wendy Williams Show confirmed to Deadline. "If that is delayed until later in the year, we may revisit the @ Home shows."

Back in May, it was revealed the show would be put on hold indefinitely due to Williams' recent health issues.

"Recently, Wendy has been dealing with symptoms from her Graves' disease which is causing fatigue. In consultation with her doctor and as a precautionary measure, she will be taking some time off as she continues to receive treatment," a statement shared via her show's official Twitter account read.

In early 2018, Williams announced that she had been diagnosed with the autoimmune disorder, Graves, which leads to an overactive thyroid.
