After divorcing Porsha Williams just 15 months into their marriage, multimillionaire Simon Guobadia is speaking out about his deep regret over the relationship. Guobadia claims he was "totally blindsided" when Williams filed for divorce and that their entire relationship was nothing more than a "$5 million rehab project" that he was foolish to take on. Under the terms of their prenup, Guobadia is required to pay Williams $40,000 per month in alimony, a financial burden he plans to appeal "1,000%" all the way to the Supreme Court if necessary.
Why it matters
This high-profile divorce case highlights the potential risks of rushing into marriage, especially for wealthy individuals who may be vulnerable to financial exploitation. It also raises questions about the enforceability of prenuptial agreements and the role of power dynamics in relationships.
The details
Guobadia admitted that he was "out of his goddamn mind" to have gotten engaged to Williams after just 30 days of dating, following his split from her former "Real Housewives of Atlanta" co-star Falynn Pina. He claims he was "targeted" for his wealth from the very beginning of the relationship. Under the terms of their prenup, Guobadia is required to pay Williams $40,000 per month in alimony, which adds up to $560,000 over the duration of their marriage. He is also required to cover the expenses of the Atlanta marital home for up to 36 months, and Williams can refinance the home and walk away with 50% of the equity.
- Guobadia and Williams got engaged in 30 days after Guobadia's split from Falynn Pina.
- Guobadia and Williams were married for 15 months before Williams filed for divorce.
