I think it is fair to say that Porsha Williams’ filing for divorce from her husband, Simon Guobadia, caught everyone by surprise. The couple had only been married for 15 months. She filed for divorce one week after announcing she was returning to The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Porsha also signed a deal with NBCUniversal which will allow her to take on “scripted project opportunities across the company’s broadcast and streaming properties.”
As the divorce proceedings began, Porsha’s attorneys requested that Simon, and the team working with him, “not to destroy, conceal, or alter” any of his financial documents. In the legal documents, Porsha also asked that the prenuptial agreement be enforced. “Wife requests that said Prenuptial Agreement be enforced by this Court and be made a part of this Court’s Final Judgment and Decree of Divorce,” the divorce filing read.
It feels like this divorce might be nasty. And now there is a rumor about why Porsha decided to split from Simon.
Did Porsha jump into marriage “too soon?”
Well, a source told Life & Style the alleged reason for the divorce. “It was a case of too much, too soon. It wasn’t enough time to really get to know someone, but Porsha was swept off her feet by Simon,” the source claimed.
Porsha and Simon did announce their engagement after only dating for several weeks. That was quick! At the time, Porsha didn’t appreciate anyone skeptical of her new romance, including her fellow RHOA peaches.
According to the insider, there were also other issues inside the marriage. “Friends found Simon controlling, and that was a problem for Porsha, who is so independent. It’s not her style to be told what to do and when to be home,” the source alleged. This rumor has not been confirmed by Porsha or Simon.
It looks like Porsha’s divorce will be a major storyline in the upcoming Season 16 of RHOA. Having single Porsha back on the show may be the jolt of energy that the franchise needs to up its ratings.
Unfortunately, we don’t have a premiere date just yet. Fingers crossed for some updates from Bravo soon.
