Porsha Williams has seemingly stepped up to support her ex-husband, Simon Guobadia, after he was detained by ICE.
In newly-surfaced court audio, the Real Housewives of Atlanta star confirmed that she paid his child support and other household expenses. “Yes, I paid his child support for his two sons. I also paid maintenance for the house— outside of utilities,” said Williams.
When asked by a judge why she chose to do so, Williams explained, “I really got concerned, being that Simon was still detained […] I’m still married to him at the end of the day, and I just really felt it was unfortunate that they weren’t getting any help. The mother had reached out to my assistant and said she was concerned. When I spoke to her, she made me aware that it had not been paid, I paid [his child support].”
The couple’s divorce was recently finalized. She filed after just over a year of marriage and asked the court to enforce the terms of their prenup. Guobadia tried to contest said terms, which included monthly alimony, division of property, and legal cost coverage. A judge sided with Williams and he’s since been deported to Nigeria.
After being detained, Guobadia spoke highly about the Trump administration to US Weekly. “Donny, like I refer to him, we are very similar. We’re both Geminis, and some of his antics— I certainly can understand it. Sometimes [I would] say that we are misunderstood.”
He noted, “I don’t have any animosity towards the situation. I don’t have any problems with Donald Trump like any other CEO or chief executive, who I am. We look to hire the best people we can find. And the issues that he’s dealing with are no different than any other organization. I feel that I have a very unique perspective on this situation, considering that I was there for as long as I was. And there are so many things that I saw that I feel that I can help the administration with.”
Guobadia currently has no plans to “fight” to get back into America, but if offered, he would return.
