As The Real Housewives of Atlanta's Porsha Williams navigates her ongoing divorce from Simon Guobadia, she's ready for a fresh start (possibly) in a new home — as scary as that may be.
As seen in RHOA Season 16, Episode 12, Porsha recently went house hunting with her mother, Ms. Diane Williams, and sister Lauren Williams. "I decided to look at houses because I'm getting anxious," the mom to Pilar Jhena “PJ” McKinley (whom she shares with ex-fiancé Dennis McKinley) explained. "At the end of the day, I am trying to visualize my future, and part of that is definitely where my daughter and I are gonna lay our heads."
While touring a $4.2 million property (complete with eight bedrooms and seven baths), the listing agent showcased a media room that he said could accommodate a golf simulator, presenting Porsha the opportunity to quip, "We left the person that likes golf at the other house."
On a more serious note, though, she reflected on how she was just searching for a new home with Simon back in 2021. "It's crazy because the life that you had pictured and [were] gonna have with someone is ending," she shared. "But in that same time of processing it, you're having to start a new life. So… I'm really torn."

Meanwhile Porsha also drew comparisons between her current situation and her 2013 divorce from former NFL star Kordell Stewart which played out during RHOA Season 6.
She further described the potential new home as a "plan B," attributing her mounting anxiety to an upcoming court date with Simon. "With my first marriage … I didn't even go to court. I was like, I'm just gonna walk away with nothing," she said.
"My first divorce was difficult because it was old school, and I wanted to be submissive and I gave everything up to be [a] wife," Porsha continued. "So when everything hit the fan and it ended, I did not have any kind of plan for my future. And so I was kind of left out in the cold."
When it came to her more recent marriage to Simon, however, "I handled business and I lined everything up so that I wouldn’t be in that same position," Porsha added.

On The Real Housewives of Atlanta After Show, Porsha opened up more about the legal reasons behind her house-hunting adventure in RHOA's May 25 episode.
When newly returned castmate Phaedra Parks asked if she was going to remain in her "fabulous" current home since she was "getting rid of" her estranged husband, Porsha explained to her and Brit Eady that her relocation decision actually hinged on whether or not a judge decides "to enforce the prenup" between her and Simon.
"When we were going through everything at the time, I didn't really know where the chips may fall," she admitted, claiming that the prenup afforded her the "option to keep" their family home. If the ruling didn't go in her favor, however, Porsha said she would "go on, move, buy another home," and Simon would keep the house.
