RHOA’s Porsha Williams Lands Role on Brilliant Minds Season 2 — Character Details

Season 16 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta may have just wrapped, but Porsha Williams remains booked and busy. Sadly, her longtime friendship with Shamea Morton seems to be over. Their friendship slowly broke down as RHOA viewers watched.

Their falling out involved a fight between their mothers and Porsha’s alleged unhappiness over Shamea scoring her peach. Plus, Porsha thought that Shamea wasn’t a good friend. It was a lot to deal with, and the duo’s squabbling on social media has continued. However, amid her divorce from Simon Guobadia and her friendship woes with Shamea, Porsha has been adding to her acting resume.

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams will take on a guest role in Brilliant Minds

According to Variety, Porsha landed a guest-starring role on Season 2 of Brilliant Minds. The medical drama stars Zachary Quinto as a neurologist working to discover the secrets of the human brain. Porsha’s character, Bitsy, will pop up in the premiere episode. Her character is described as “an affluent Upper West Side housewife who sees Dr. Carol Pierce in her private practice. She knows all the gossip about everyone, on every medical board in New York City.” Sounds fit for a housewife!

Of course, Porsha has flexed her acting muscle before. She performed onstage in A Mother’s Love, which was created by her RHOA co-star, Kandi Burruss. Porsha also appeared in the Lifetime movie, Single Black Female 3: The Final Chapter. She portrayed detective Ebony Williams.

Meanwhile, Porsha competed in Season 4 of The Traitors. The new season is set to drop in 2026. Porsha had some prior drama with Real Housewives of Potomac alum Candiace Dillard Bassett. Since Candiace unfollowed Porsha, I guess we can expect some fireworks in the castle. I can’t wait!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta is streaming on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
