Critical reception
On 21 June 2019, media personality and skeptic Alistair MacLauchlan presented his review of Williams in part three of four medium investigations he conducted in Scotland. He attended one of William's mediumship events in Edinburgh. He reported that in her opening statement Williams asked how many people were there for forensics. One of the seminars the following day was on forensics, breaking down evidence supplied from spirits and extrasensory perception. According to MacLauchlan, while highly publicized missing person cases tend to attract many mediums who use it as a means of building their portfolio, most law enforcement do not acknowledge their involvement.Of her event, he says, as Williams began the discussion, she primed the audience saying they should "think outside the box" and make connections to the messages she claims to receive from the dead because they can sometimes be muddy. Further MacLauchlan then reported she went on with basic cold reading tactics even speaking to a dog that had died. MacLauchlan concluded the article saying that while Williams has good stage presence building rapport with her audience, she uses wild guesses from a primed audience, firing questions then picking through their reactions that fit her narrative.
In addition, Williams' association with Princess Märtha Louise of Norway has caused friction within Norway's Royal Family.
