RHOA’s Porsha Williams Gets Emotional Talking Dating After Divorce

Although Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia’s divorce has been finalized, don’t expect to see the Real Housewives of Atlanta star dating anytime soon. She’s taking a break from dating, and in a new interview, she got emotional talking about the next chapter in her life. It’s finally time for Porsha to focus on Porsha.

Porsha Williams isn’t ready to jump back into dating just yet

Just days before entering the castle for Season 4 of The Traitors, Porsha and Simon settled their divorce in a court hearing conducted via Zoom. Then, she did a victory lap and spoke to People, celebrating that she was closing the door on that era of her life. During that conversation, she admitted that moving into a different relationship would be easier said than done.

“It’s lonely. I can’t connect with other men,” Porsha admitted. “You would think I’m dating already and stuff, right? People try to introduce me. But it’s just … when it’s not the same, it’s not the same.”

Through tears, Porsha told the outlet that she wanted to focus on healing and feeling like herself. So, don’t expect her to run off and check into Bravo’s Love Hotel. She’s definitely not in the headspace and still mourning the life she thought she could have with Simon.

“I’m going to do it different this time,” she said of her next relationship. “I’m going to be alone until I’m whole. And then when I’m whole, then I will open myself back up so I don’t make the same mistake again,” Porsha continued.

Throughout the process, Porsha has been reflecting on every element of her life and how she navigates relationships. She said she used to be a “people pleaser” who spent way too much time reading through Instagram comments. She wants to break free from that mindset and explore herself instead of feeling obligated to find someone new.

Porsha said, “I can’t just feel it with someone else. I can’t just get underneath someone else and feel it. I can’t just drink it away like I have in my past,” Porsha admitted. “It’s a rough road, healing this way. It’s dry — on every level of being dry. But it’s needed.”
