“Real Housewives of Atlanta” Star Porsha Williams Files for Divorce from Simon Guobadia
Porsha Williams, known for her role in “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” has filed for divorce from Simon Guobadia after just over a year of marriage. The split, confirmed via court documents obtained by PEOPLE, marks the end of their whirlwind romance, which culminated in a November 2022 wedding ceremony blending Nigerian traditions and American customs.
While rumors swirl regarding Guobadia’s citizenship status, a source close to the couple insists that these speculations are not related to the divorce proceedings. The cause of the split remains undisclosed, described only as an “ongoing matter.”
The couple’s engagement in May 2021, just one month after they began dating, initially sparked headlines. Both Williams and Guobadia expressed their deep affection for each other on social media, with Williams affirming their “crazy in love” status and Guobadia asserting that they fulfilled each other’s criteria for a life partner.
Williams, who is also a mother to a four-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, recently announced her return to “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” for its upcoming season. Additionally, she unveiled a scripted project deal with NBCUniversal, signaling a new chapter in her career.
As Williams navigates the end of her marriage and embraces new professional opportunities, fans eagerly await further developments on both fronts.
