Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia: Is the Real Housewives Couple Still Together?

‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ is another installment of the highly popular ‘The Real Housewives’ franchise. Commonly known as ‘RHOA,’ this reality series features several women living in Atlanta, Georgia. Each episode gives an inside perspective into these amazing women’s personal and professional lives. ‘RHOA’ has proven to be as enjoyable as any other franchise installment. It satisfies the urge that we all have for drama and keeps us coming back for more! Season 5 introduced housewife Porsha Williams who left the show in season 13. After she departed from the show, she got into a relationship with Simon Guobadia, which was further documented in her spin-off series, ‘Porsha’s Family Matters.’

Porsha and Simon’s Journey Has Been Unconventional

Porsha appeared on season 13 of ‘RHOA’ alongside Simon’s ex-wife and her co-star Falynn Guobadia. Early in 2021, Falynn and Simon divorced; by the summer, he and Porsha were dating. The latter had made her debut during RHOA season 5. She was married to former NFL football player Kordell Stewart at the time, an athlete who spent 11 seasons as a quarterback.

Porsha actually disclosed they were getting divorced on the RHOA season 6 opener, shocking many fans. From that same season till the end of RHOA season 13, viewers witnessed her dating several exciting personalities. Moreover, Porsha and her ex-fiance Dennis McKinley welcomed their baby girl in 2019. However, his infidelity caused the pair to split in 2020.

It was only after season 13 that Porsha shocked fans by confirming her relationship with Simon. Although she didn’t return for another season, she showcased her new love on her limited series spin-off, ‘Porsha’s Family Matters.’ That’s how we know for a fact that after dating for just one month, the couple announced their engagement in May 2021.

Then, as a step forward to continue their lives together, the pair tied the knot in a traditional Nigerian native law and custom ceremony on November 25, 2022. Porsha and Simon actually also remarried the very next day in an American ceremony, quickly solidifying their whirlwind romance as well as courtship into something much, much more.

Porsha and Simon Are Currently in the Middle of a Divorce

While it’s true that Porsha had proudly used the hashtag #Guobadia2022 to announce her nuptial plans on Instagram in June 2022, before adding their wedding date was “fixed” and “ready,” she and Simon sadly didn’t pan out. They’d promised one another forever in front of 250 guests on November 25, 2022, before doing so again in front of 350 guests a day later, yet they filed for divorce a mere 15 months later. And unfortunately, it hasn’t been drama-free.

According to reports, Porsha was the one to file for divorce in February 2023, while asserting the cause of their split was an “ongoing matter.” However, to proceed with matters, Simon later filed a motion alleging that his estranged wife had “abandoned” their shared home, only to soon return with a “man visibly bearing a gun for reasons unknown to [him].” He also claimed she’d invited the “armed gunman” into their home on two other separate occasions.

The former incident apparently took place on March 21, 2024, just for Porsha to respond with another motion deeming Simon’s claims nothing but “false statements and allegations” that are “intentionally misrepresenting the reality of the situation.” Her legal documents further clarified she saw “no need to have prior discussions with Husband, as there was a clear Prenuptial Agreement that required Husband to vacate the Marital Residence by March 22, 2024.”

Furthermore, per Porsha’s filing, she’d learned her estranged husband was “having multiple women in the Marital Residence, so she no longer felt comfortable staying in the residence with her minor child.” In other words, she and Simon are embroiled in a heated legal battle at the moment despite them having had a prenuptial agreement, all the while also doing their best to try and move on.

After all, Simon is the CEO and Founder of Simon & Company — now called Simcol Petroleum Limited Company, which supplies refined fuels. On the other hand, ‘The Pursuit Of Porsha’ author is the proud owner of Gonaked Hair, an influencer, and a single mother, who continues to make public appearances to this day. So, no matter what, we wish this ex-couple all the best for all their future.
