Porsha Williams' quest for love has been anything but ordinary. The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star seems to have finally met her match in Simon Guobadia. After announcing their engagement, the couple faced scrutiny from the public and their family and friends.
Simon was married when he and Porsha first met, divorcing his wife of five years in January 2021 only to get engaged to Porsha by May. Porsha steadfastly denies any involvement in Simon's divorce. Despite any outside questioning of the pair's love, the couple was officially married in Atlanta. They held a traditional Nigerian native law and custom ceremony on November 26th, 2022, followed by an American wedding ceremony the next day. Among the 350 guests were some of Porsha's former Real Housewives colleagues. Some of the ladies who made the guest list may surprise you!
