Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Porsha Williams, has announced she is engaged to Simon Guobadia – a familiar face on the reality show’s set.
Guobadia is the estranged husband of another Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Falynn Guobadia, who announced just last month their two-year marriage was over.
Williams took to Instagram to share the news, telling fans, “Our relationship began a month ago – yes we are crazy in love.”
“I know it’s fast but we are living life each day to its fullest,” Williams captioned a selfie with Simon. “I choose happiness every morning and every night. Tuning out all negative energy and only focused on positive wishes. He makes me so happy and to me, that is what matters most.”
“For all of you that need facts, I get the optics but Simon filed for divorce from a previous marriage in January. I had nothing to do with their divorce filing. That’s between the two of them,” Williams noted.
“Falynn and I are not friends, and Simon’s divorce has been settled,” she clarified. “Our relationship is a positive, loving step forward in everybody’s lives.”
Simon, in a separate Instagram post, revealed they were engaged, writing, “I asked her to marry me because we checked ALL of each other’s boxes, and then some.”
As for his estranged wife, Falynn, the 31-year-old announced she and Simon had split on April 22, sharing in an Instagram post, “After two years of marriage and 5 years of friendship, Simon and I have made the difficult decision to go our separate ways.”
“We are deeply thankful for the impact we have made in each other’s lives, as well as the bonds formed with each other’s children,” she continued. “This mutual decision was not made lightly and despite our current willingness to be transparent, we only ask our friends and supporters to be respectful of our privacy as our family gets through this very difficult period.”
