Porsha Williams has officially announced her long-awaited return to Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 16.

NBCUniversal excited to have ‘authentic’ Porsha Williams return to RHOA

Porsha’s announcement to TikTok was short but sweet: “Who said that? Porsha Williams coming back to Real Housewives of Atlanta? That’s false! But Porsha Guobadia — is in the building!”

Her return to the hit BravoTV show comes after her exit in 2021. Though she had given RHOA eight seasons, Porsha took a step back after Season 13 to “reassess” her priorities.

With Porsha’s announcement came a statement from Rachel Smith, Executive Vice President of Unscripted Content, Lifestyle, and Documentaries of NBCUniversal Entertainment, “Porsha Williams Guobadia is a multi-hyphenate and we are fortunate to collaborate and tap into her creativity and passion through this partnership.”

Rachel continued, “Our audience has supported and admired Porsha as she so authentically, hilariously, and vulnerably shared her life over the years and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome her back to the NBCU family.”

Fans of both Porsha and RHOA have also commented on her return, “It’s about time!” And, “The Queen is back!”

Another added, “And just like that the ratings are back up… can’t wait!!!!”

Though Porsha will be returning after three seasons off-air, former Real Housewife of Atlanta, Kandi Burrus recently announced she will be leaving the show. Fans are now hopeful that Phaedra Parks will rejoin the show as well.
