Porsha Williams just popped out with some new, grown‑woman joy, and honestly, it fits this chapter of her life perfectly. Months after finalizing her divorce from Simon Guobadia in June 2025, the Real Housewives of Atlanta star has gone Instagram‑official with Atlanta stylist and salon owner Patrice “Sway” McKinney. Porsha marked Sway’s birthday on November 28 with a cozy carousel of photos and videos—holiday lights, hugs, and soft PDA—letting the world know this isn’t a rumor, it’s a real vibe.
Sway isn’t just “some girl on the ‘Gram”; she’s a professional stylist and salon owner with her own lane and legacy, rooted in Atlanta’s beauty and entrepreneur scene.

For Porsha, stepping out publicly with a woman after previously saying she needed time to heal and be whole before loving again shows real evolution, not just a storyline. This is her first official relationship since Simon, and it reads less like a rebound and more like a reset: a Black woman choosing softness, authenticity, and partnership that looks like peace, not just optics.
