Porsha Williams shocks fans at CultureCon: “I’m dating him… and her” — RHOA star opens up about fluid dating life post-divorce [VIDEO]
At CultureCon NYC, Porsha Williams stunned the crowd by revealing she’s currently dating both a man and a woman, calling it part of her “healing and discovery era” after divorcing Simon Guobadia.
Porsha Williams knows how to make a moment.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star and Bravo icon sent CultureCon NYC 2025 into a frenzy when she casually revealed she’s dating both a man and a woman — a surprise that instantly became the weekend’s most talked-about moment.
Speaking onstage during Bravo’s “Black Women in Reality TV” panel, Williams opened up about her post-divorce dating life, sharing that she’s been seeing two people as part of her journey toward emotional recovery. What began as a lighthearted chat quickly turned into a viral revelation — equal parts empowerment and chaos.
“So the people who I’m talking to now, it’s just two,” Porsha said with her signature smirk, mic in hand. “I’ve narrowed it down to two, okay? And he is nice and she is nice.”
The crowd’s reaction was instant — gasps, laughter, and applause rippled through the CultureCon hall as attendees realized they were witnessing Porsha’s latest headline moment in real time.
From RHOA Drama to Self-Discovery
At 43, Porsha Williams has lived a dozen lives in the public eye — reality star, entrepreneur, author, activist, and now, self-proclaimed explorer of love without limits. Her CultureCon confession marks a bold new chapter following her headline-making divorce from Simon Guobadia, finalized in August of this year after two turbulent years of marriage.
Guobadia, a Nigerian businessman who faced deportation over fraud allegations, became a lightning rod for controversy throughout their relationship. But if that marriage was chaos wrapped in luxury, Porsha’s new phase is pure autonomy.
“This is me just learning myself again,” she told the audience, her tone softening as she pivoted from humor to vulnerability. “After what I’ve been through, I realized not everyone’s a narcissist. I’m learning what normal love feels like.”
Her honesty drew applause — and plenty of commentary from fans who’ve followed her evolution from reality TV villain to fan-favorite phoenix.
TikTok Reacts: “Bisexual Empress Energy”
The first clip to capture the moment came from TikTok account @cultureunfiltered, a Bravo-centric pop culture page with nearly 400K followers. Their post — just 15 seconds long — has become the spark fueling this online blaze.
The video opens with the host screaming, “Okay Porsh!!!” before cutting to Porsha’s soundbite:
“He is nice, and she is nice.”
Onscreen text flashes: “Bisexual empress energy 🌈👑” as the crowd behind Porsha laughs and cheers.
Early engagement was modest — 29 likes and around 3K views within hours — but within 12 more, the clip began circulating across X (formerly Twitter), Lipstick Alley, and Bravo fan pages, reaching tens of thousands more.
“Porsha out here living her best bi life post-Simon,” wrote one fan on X.
Another replied, “This storyline bout to be EVERYTHING #RHOA.”
CultureCon 2025: The Perfect Stage for the Reveal
CultureCon NYC — a two-day festival celebrating Black creativity, entrepreneurship, and entertainment — hosted its annual “Housewives at the Table” panel this year, featuring stars from RHOA, RHOP, and Married to Medicine.
Porsha’s moment stood out because it mixed candor with controversy. As she spoke, she broke down how therapy and introspection led her to a new approach to dating — choosing partners who “challenge” her rather than mirror her.
“What I talked about with my therapist the other day was I’m having a hard time opening up because they’re not narcissists,” she explained. “If you want something different, you also have to be a little bit different.”
That vulnerability resonated deeply with the mostly young, Black crowd — though it also set the internet ablaze with speculation about who her partners might be.
Fans Split: Empowered or Performative?
On X, #PorshaBisexual trended within hours. While many fans praised her openness, others accused her of leveraging sexuality as a storyline for RHOA’s upcoming season.
“Porsha just be doing anything LOL,” wrote one Lipstick Alley user. Another quipped, “She’s been doing a soft rollout of her storyline.”
Still, the majority reaction leaned celebratory. “She’s DEWIN’ BOFF! Whew. Bisexual empress of Atlanta,” one commenter wrote, referencing Phaedra Parks’ classic meme.
In Bravo circles, the debate is familiar: genuine self-expression versus calculated drama. But for many fans, the two aren’t mutually exclusive — and that’s what makes Porsha a ratings powerhouse.
RHOA Season 17: The “Soft Life” Era
Sources close to Bravo’s production hint that this “two-person dating phase” may be part of Porsha’s Season 17 storyline, marking her first full return since her Season 13 exit.
Where past arcs centered on her marriages and motherhood, this one seems poised to highlight her evolution as a single woman reclaiming her voice.
Behind the camera, Bravo executives reportedly see this as a “ratings gold” opportunity, similar to when Cynthia Bailey’s 2018 storylines helped revitalize RHOA’s midseason slump.
From Scandal to Self-Possession
For longtime fans, Porsha’s admission feels like a full-circle moment. The same woman who once clashed with Kenya Moore, dragged a castmate by her hair, and stood by controversial partners is now standing confidently in her truth — even if it invites side-eyes.
Culturally, it’s also a reflection of broader shifts in Black pop culture, where fluidity and self-definition are increasingly visible. Artists like Janelle Monáe and Niecy Nash have paved that path, and Porsha’s revelation fits right into the current era’s wave of “soft liberation” narratives among Black women reclaiming their image.
“She’s being messy and mindful,” wrote one fan on Instagram. “And honestly? We love that for her.”
Bravo, Bisexuality, and the Business of Controversy
Porsha’s statement may also be a strategic masterstroke. Bravo has been leaning heavily into “fluid femme” narratives — from The Real Housewives of Miami’s Julia Lemigova storyline to teasers hinting at same-sex exploration in RHOBH Season 14.
By leaning into her truth, Porsha joins that evolution — a network star reshaping the reality TV conversation about love and labels.
Her clip is now being recirculated by accounts like @TheRhoaTalk and @BravoTeaSpiller, ensuring it remains one of the platform’s biggest talking points heading into the week.
The Crowd Gasped — but Porsha Laughed
Back at CultureCon, though, it wasn’t all theory. In the moment, Porsha simply laughed at the audience’s reaction — brushing off the gasps and doubling down on her confidence.
“They’re both nice,” she said, her grin widening. “That’s all that matters.”
For a woman who’s been through public marriages, breakups, and betrayals, the statement was less confession and more declaration: Porsha Williams is done living by anyone else’s rules.
And whether it’s for love, storyline, or simply self-ownership, she’s once again doing what she does best — commanding attention, one viral mic drop at a time.
