ATLANTA – It’s a full-circle moment for Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams, as the dramatic Season 16 finale aired on June 29 — and for the first time this season, fans finally saw her inside her lavish home.
For most of the season, cameras weren’t allowed inside the $7 million mansion Porsha once shared with now-ex-husband Simon Guobadia, due to a strict cease-and-desist order he served to Bravo production. The legal warning stated that Simon “does not consent to the release, disclosure or publication of any photograph of the property,” effectively banning any filming activity on the premises.

Legal Drama, Delayed Access, and a Major Comeback
At the time, Porsha was in the thick of a contentious divorce and unable to legally showcase the home. According to insiders, this episode was shot five months after the main season had wrapped, around the time the estranged couple had just been assigned a court date.
Fast forward to the finale — not only did Porsha finally open the doors to her home, but a lot had changed since cameras last rolled. Most notably:
• Simon Guobadia was deported
• The couple’s divorce was finalized
• Porsha won big in the prenup battle
Porsha’s Divorce Victory: What She Walked Away With
Porsha didn’t just reclaim her space — she walked away from her marriage with serious wins. As part of the divorce settlement, she reportedly received:
▪️ $40,000 monthly alimony for 15 months
▪️ Simon covering all her legal fees
▪️ Full rights to the Rolls-Royce Simon previously gifted her
▪️ Until 2027 to decide whether she wants to keep the multimillion-dollar home they once shared
Talk about bouncing back in style.

From Cease-and-Desist to Center Stage
This finale moment wasn’t just about real estate — it was a symbol of Porsha reclaiming her narrative. After months of being silenced and shut out of her own space on national television, she ended Season 16 with a bang, filmed on her own terms.
One fan tweeted:
“Porsha walking through that house like a queen after all Simon tried? ICONIC.”

As the curtains close on RHOA Season 16, one thing is clear: Porsha Williams is back in control — and she’s just getting started.
