Porsha Williamsis clearing up questions about her quick engagement toSimon Guobadia, who was married to her formerReal Housewives of AtlantacostarFalynn Pina.
During an appearance onWatch What Happens Liveon Sunday, hostAndy Cohensought answers from Williams, 40, on the drama surrounding her whirlwind romance. Williams said she’s “not sure” how Pina learned about the couple’s relationship, adding that she’s “never had any communication with her.”
Early on inRHOAseason 13, Pina invited Williams and their friends over for a pool party at the house she was sharing with Guobadia at the time. At the pool party, Pina introduced the ladies to Guobadia, who was seenexchanging a fist bump with Williams. Many episodes later, the same home was the backdrop for a Halloween party that turned into an explosive argument requiring intervention from Guobadia when Pina and costar LaToya Ali got into analtercation.
Asked specifically whether she and Pina have spoken since the engagement news broke, theReal Housewives of Atlanta: Porsha’s Family Mattersstar told Cohen on Sunday: “No, and [Simon] hasn’t either.”
“I actually told him, ‘I’m sorry for your divorce,’ and all of that because I know what that feels like,” she said. “I know what it feels like to go through betrayal and hurt. A little birdie had told me that[Falynn] was pregnant, so I knew what he was about to go through. So I was just basically like, ‘Hey, are you okay? … Praying for you and your family.’ "

Williams also opened up about “the timeline” of her relationship with Guobadia followingher split from ex-fiancé Dennis McKinley.
“Here’s the thing. I was tired of the rollercoaster [with Dennis],” she said. “We had not been intimate or anything, but I just was like with my daughter [Pilar Jhena] here, I want to know what it is. So if you want to be with me, bring the damn ring back. When he didn’t, it was an easy cut.”
