But there are also deeply touching moments, like one shared here in an exclusive clip with PEOPLE, where former reality star Angela “Blac Chyna” White drops by to check on Williams.
“You’ve always been like, honest with me, and put me in my place, in the most motherly, kind way,” Chyna, 35, tells Williams, 59, who sits in her New York City apartment, cloaked in a Gucci coat, staring intently at her friend. Moments prior, Williams, known for her varying wigs, has removed the one she’s wearing to show her real hair.

In the extended scene, which will be shown in the doc, she also breaks down during the tender moment and shows Chyna her feet, now misshapen due to lymphedema.
The close friendship first grew out of gossip. Back in 2020, after years of being mentioned on Williams’ show, Chyna decided to set the record straight, sitting down with the then-host for an interview about her life and headline-fueling entanglements with the Kardashians.
