Well, I got so overwhelmed in that season that by the time I got to rehearsals for Once on This Island, I was already depleted and exhausted. Why should I have to space things out? I thought. I wanted to be in the season where I did everything. I was actually filming the Chad Loves Michelle show and randomly said, “I want to get back on Broadway.” It’s like I spoke it up.
I knew that it was time for me to get back on Broadway. It’s easy to quit a job you hate, but sometimes you have to quit a job you love because it’s not good for you either. We checked in on the singer on her road to recovery to find out how she’s getting back to happy.ĮSSENCE: You’ve been so brave and strong through so much. “You really have to listen to your body, and my body was saying no.” Williams has been lying low ever since, and she’s determined to use the respite to reset and heal. “I did the opening night, and a few days after, I just kind of had a mental breakdown,” reveals Williams, who decided to put herself first and get more help. In December she announced that her engagement to Johnson was off, and a week later she was forced to quit the Broadway play per doctor’s orders. While her fans thought they were counting the days until she’d say “I do,” unbeknownst to them, the ground beneath Williams had begun to shake again. She even starred with her fiancé in their own reality show, Chad Loves Michelle (OWN), and signed on to return to Broadway to headline Once on This Island. Then the depression she’d battled on and off since age 13 creeped back in, and that July she announced on social media that she had “sought help from a great team of heath care professionals.” Williams appeared to be on the mend. After getting engaged in March to her dream guy, a pastor named Chad Johnson, she was on top of the world. For the singer, 2018 was a roller-coaster year that ended with her at her lowest point. Michelle Williams was in the fight of her life.
