After Porsha Williams announced her exit from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, fans are noticing signs of her departure. Some fans weren't too surprised by her decision to leave the show, as there had been rumors going around for months claiming that Porsha wasn't coming back. It's said that she didn't want to have to deal with the ladies coming for her relationship with Simon Guobadia.
When looking at how much Porsha's life has changed over the last few months, it makes sense why she skipped out on returning to RHOA. Porsha is set to release her first book, a memoir of her life called The Pursuit of Porsha. The same title will also be used for her solo spin-off special that she secured with Bravo. Porsha had already quit her hosting position at Dish Nation prior to deciding to quit her lead role on RHOA. Furthermore, with all the money her fiancé makes, Simon could be the one footing the bill on Porsha's lavish lifestyle right now.
There had been various signs that Porsha was ready to leave RHOA. For instance, She was annoyed with how much she was targeted on RHOA season 13 with the "strippergate" scandal. With this season having the lowest ratings in RHOA history, Porsha's alleged hookup with a stripper and a member of the cast took center stage. At the reunion, Porsha defended herself, explaining that she was single and free to do whatever she wanted. Alas, shortly after the reunion aired, Porsha announced that she was engaged to Simon after just one month of dating. The main issue was that Simon appeared on RHOA season 13 as the husband of "Porsha's friend" Falynn Guobadia. Simon and Falynn divorced earlier this year, so the Nigerian business mogul took no time moving on with someone Falynn was friendly with.
When announcing their relationship, Porsha claimed that she and Falynn were never friends. Nonetheless, cast members still threw shade. Porsha's longtime enemy Kenya Moore expressed her disapproval for the engagement, and so did Marlo Hampton. Even NeNe Leakes had something to say. During an interview appearance, Porsha claimed that Drew Sidora was the only housewife who showed support for her engagement. With all the shade coming from her co-stars and Porsha's frustration with being targeted by the cast, it makes sense why she decided to skip out on returning for another season.
Porsha is set to share her family life and career on her upcoming spin-off special. It's likely Porsha is gunning for the short spin-off to turn into something more. With Porsha leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta on amicable terms, the door is always open for her to return. With that said, her exit comes one year after NeNe Leakes' departure. Now, many viewers are wondering about the future of the show.
