Porsha Williams Says Bravo Blindsided Her With RHOA Demotion + Read Her Full Statement!
Rumor has it, when the official cast for the new season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta was announced on Wednesday, Porsha Williams was blindsided by the cast shakeup.
After joining the cast on Bravo in 2012, Porsha tells Dish Nation, where she is employed, that she had no idea she was demoted from an official cast member and would now remain on the show in a ‘friend’ capacity.
She tells Dish Nation,
Unfortunately, I can only be PORSHA, and portraying anything else, would not be genuine nor honest. This moment is bittersweet, but God has been so amazing to me, and I think this is a perfect time for me to spread my wings, and finally focus on all of my upcoming projects.

Only Bravo would demote a real ex-housewife and give a promotion to a non-housewife. Im a fan of Porsha and Im happy that she is coming into her own without Kordell and RHOA!
I think this needed to happen for her to grow. I am glad to see her go because she can put more focus on her other ventures. While it may not seem like it at the moment, they have done her a favor and this is her blessing in disguise. She is trying to build her business and the last thing you want investors to remember you for is attacking someone.
So,shes not included in all of season 7?Did she only do a few scenes or what?
They did this same thing with Luann de Lesseps on RHONY. She was on every single episode like a regular housewife. She had interviews throughout the episodes and she was in the entire reunion…but she didn’t hold the apple at the bginning of the episodes, like the “legitimate” housewives do… so weird.
Bravo is weird.
Im a little bummed too that she won’t be back as a regular! I mean from the trailer, I would definitely feel some type of way if this new chick, Claudia, is coming in and basically trying to take her place.(She’s flirting with Kordell and people are toasting to her being the new “Mrs. Stewart” smh GTFOH) I just feel a little bad for her because she was one of my favorites. I also think it’s kinda messed up for them to not tell her until when the promo came out! Like how does that work? Has she already gotten paid for the season? Is it somewhere in her contract that she could be demoted at any time? #Shady
I’m proud of Bravo for taking a stand. I hope the adapt a zero tolerance when it comes to violence. These women are middle aged! (not Candyor Porsha) they where entirely too old to be fighting! If you want ghetto behavior tune into a Mona Scott Young production. Sorry Porsha but you needed this to get your mind right. Grow from this and then show them all what you are mad of.
