Porsha Williams Makes Surprising Reveal About RHOA Season 16: "I Kid You Not..."
The Real Housewives of Atlanta's Porsha Williams is opening up the hardships she faced during Season 16.
Porsha Williams is admitting that she was just a little nervous to film The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 16.
The mom of one was previously on RHOA from Seasons 5 through 13, and in spite of her experience with being in front of the cameras, she admitted that she was just a little rusty to be back in front of them after her two year hiatus. Porsha caught up with People at Bravo Fan Fest on Nov. 23, where she opened up about how hard this had been for her.
"The first day of filming, I kid you not, I felt like a rookie," she explained. "I promise you, I stopped midway, and I was like, 'Am I supposed to be looking this way?' It took me a minute to recalibrate and make the cameras invisible again."
Porsha Williams says she put up boundaries while filming RHOA Season 16
Once she got used to the cameras being there, Porsha was able to then allow herself to be vulnerable in front of her fellow RHOA Season 16 cast members, but she was also firm with her boundaries. She told the publication that she was selective with what she talked about with her cast members — like her ongoing divorce from Simon Guobadia.
"I really got into therapy and a big part of therapy was her suggesting self-preservation, which is hard to do when you're in an ensemble cast and you have to speak about your life," she explained. "But I really had boundaries about what I would open up to with some of the other girls and what I would not. So just kind of like being and protecting myself, but also being with everyone else has been a good thing for me."
Porsha Williams' divorce from Simon Guobadia will be on RHOA Season 16
An unseen clip from RHOA Season 16, released during Bravo Fan Fest and posted to Bravo's Instagram account, revealed that Porsha will be talking about her divorce from Simon on the show. In the clip, Porsha can be seen heading to her lawyer's office to discuss her divorce.
"In my relationship with Simon, I felt like that if I had him by my side, we would conquer anything," she explained during a confessional. "However, I started just realizing a lot of different things that turned out to be untruth."
During the #NoFilter panel at Bravo Fan Fest, Porsha also admitted that she feels at home being back in front of the cameras. "Maybe I'm just made for this," she said. "I wanted to be unfiltered this season."
