Porsha Williams Guobadia to Return to THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA

Porsha Williams Guobadia is returning to Bravo's The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

The beloved franchise star is returning to the show for a reboot season after two years off. The return is part of an overall scripted talent deal with NBCUniversal Entertainment.

"I’m incredibly thankful for the vision and faith NBCUniversal has put in me to be a larger part of their family," Williams Guobadia said. "I’m looking forward to being back on ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ and showing the world my new world!"

The Real Housewives of Atlanta is currently on a hiatus following their fifteenth season. Kandi Burruss announced her departure from the series due to the prolonged time gap between seasons.

As a fan-favorite, she previously spent nine seasons as part of the hit franchise from seasons five through thirteen. She left to star in Porsha’s Family Matters in 2021. In 2023, she led the third season of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip.

The most recent season of The Real Housewives of Alanta starred Burruss, Sheree Whitfield, Marlo Hampton, Sanya Richards-Ross, and Drew Sidora. There is no confirmation on who else will be seen in the upcoming season.

“Porsha Williams Guobadia is a multi-hyphenate and we are fortunate to collaborate and tap into her creativity and passion through this partnership,” said Rachel Smith, Executive Vice President of Unscripted Content, Lifestyle and Documentaries, NBCUniversal Entertainment. “Our audience has supported and admired Porsha as she so authentically, hilariously and vulnerably shared her life over the years and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome her back to the NBCU family.”
