Porsha Williams surprised fans and producers of Real Housewives of Atlanta with the recent announcement of her divorce from Simon Guobadia. The news came as a shock to Andy Cohen and the show's producers, who were unaware of any marital issues before Williams filed for divorce last week.

Cohen clarified that Williams' relationship status was not a factor in her return to RHOA, as her upcoming season was intended to be a celebratory one. The unexpected turn of events took everyone by surprise, as they had envisioned a different storyline for Williams.

Williams, 42, filed for divorce from Guobadia, 59, in Atlanta, with rumors circulating about Guobadia's citizenship status. However, sources indicate that the divorce is unrelated to these allegations, and the cause of the split remains undisclosed.

Despite the personal turmoil, Williams is set to return to The Real Housewives of Atlanta for its 16th season after a two-year hiatus. Additionally, she has signed a scripted deal with NBCUniversal for various project opportunities across their platforms.

Williams, a mother to 4-year-old daughter Pilar, expressed gratitude for the support from NBCUniversal and her excitement to showcase her new ventures to the world.

For fans of the show, The Real Housewives of Atlanta can be streamed on Peacock for the latest updates and drama.
