Porsha Williams is setting the record straight…so it seems.

Hot on the promotional trail for her memoir ‘The Pursuit of Porsha’ and new ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ spin-off show ‘Porsha’s Family Matters,’ the reality star sat down with Entertainment Tonight. 

During her candid chat with host Nischelle Turner, Williams was quizzed about her decision to depart RHOA after nine years.

She was more specifically probed about whether her shock engagement to Simon Guobadia and the firestorm it ignited (due to his marriage to her co-star Falynn Guobadia) was the cause.

Though on hand to promote his forthcoming film venture with Lifetime, ‘A Gospel Christmas’ (click here to watch the trailer), Kirk briefly tackled the topic of his family life by suggesting he hadn’t reconciled with his son.
