Business mogul Simon Guobadia has opened up about his short-lived marriage to Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams, admitting he regrets tying the knot with her and claiming the relationship was driven more by money than love.
In a candid interview, Guobadia revealed he was blindsided when Williams filed for divorce after just 14 months of marriage, describing the move as an emotional ambush that left him feeling betrayed. He said he had attempted to address issues in their relationship, but his concerns were ignored, leading to a breakdown in communication.
The divorce, finalized in February 2024, sent shockwaves through the reality TV world. Williams cited alleged concerns over Guobadia’s finances and immigration status, but he insists those issues were never raised in private conversations. Reflecting on their whirlwind romance, which saw them engaged just 30 days after meeting, Guobadia admitted the decision to marry so quickly was a mistake.

Following his brief time in U.S. immigration detention and subsequent deportation to Nigeria, Guobadia is now contesting the court-ordered divorce settlement. The judgment awarded Williams $40,000 per month in spousal support and granted her rent-free residence in one of Guobadia’s properties for three years. He has vowed to challenge the ruling, even suggesting he may escalate the case to the Supreme Court.
Adding to the controversy, Guobadia revealed that he does not maintain a relationship with Porsha’s daughter, PJ, despite earlier portrayals of them being close. He further accused Williams of only paying child support while he was in detention to protect her public image, not out of genuine concern.
Guobadia’s revelations have reignited public interest in their tumultuous marriage, drawing attention to the fast-paced and high-stakes nature of reality TV relationships. As the legal battle unfolds, both Guobadia and Williams remain firmly in the spotlight, with fans and critics watching closely.
