Porsha Williams spoke out after shocking fans by filing for divorce from Simon Guobadia after just one year of marriage.

“Thank you for your prayers & support [broken-heart emoji and prayer emoji] – PW,” she posted on Instagram Sunday, notably using her maiden name initial.

Guobadia, meanwhile, posted a series of photos of himself seemingly unfazed while hanging by his pool and wrote, “Enthusiastically welcoming Spring. Happy Saturday🙏🏾.”

The returning “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star, 42, submitted her court documents in Georgia last week; however, the filing is private, so the official cause of the split isn’t known.

Although she signed off her message using “PW,” Williams still has Porsha Guobadia in her Instagram bio.

The “Pursuit of Porsha” author and the entrepreneur, 59, married twice in November 2022. They tied the knot for the first time in an extravagant Nigerian traditional ceremony in Atlanta and followed up the next day with a conventional American wedding.

Guobadia proposed to Williams in May 2021 after publicly dating for just one month, and the betrothal was not without its controversy, as Guobadia had been previously married to Williams’ friend and co-star Falynn Pina.

Not long after Williams and Guobadia became engaged, the Businessman accused Falynn of cheating on him.

“Let’s start with who she cheated with and currently pregnant for and living in a home I paid for – post divorce,” he wrote on Instagram in June 2021.

A source told Page Six that Simon posted the message at the time because he felt “it was time to speak the truth.”

A month prior, Guobadia attempted to shoot down rumors that he had cheated on both Falynn and Williams by offering $50,000 in cash to anyone with credible proof of his infidelity.
