Candiace Dillard: Origins of Porsha Williams’ marriage were ‘little sketches’

Candiace Dillard is still wondering how Porsha Williams’ marriage to Simon Guobadia started.

“They had a beautiful wedding,” the “Real Housewives of Potomac” star, 36, said of the pair on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast.

“But it was a little sketch that they definitely came together.”

Dillard — once a truth seeker — especially pressured Williams, 41, about her relationship with Guobadia, 58, while filming Peacock’s “Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip” season three last summer. last time in Thailand

“The streets say you dated him and he married her,” the “RHOP” star told the “RHOA” alum at a group dinner, referring to Falynn Pina.

Pina is Guobadia’s ex-wife and she attended season 13 of “RHOA” when she was married to a Nigerian-American businessman. She was chosen as “a friend of” Williams at the time.

Although Guoabadia and Pina were separated at the time he began pursuing Williams, that knowledge was not immediately made public. This led many viewers, including Dillard, to believe that the “Pursuit of Porsha” author “stole” her friend’s men.

“So what actually happened was that I was on the show. and they told me ‘We’re getting a new wife’ when I met (Pena) and her husband. I’m not interested in him right now. But I know him,” Williams clarified.

“Fast forward. It didn’t work for her and she left.”

Dillard joked that no one was “satisfied” with Williams’ explanation.

“It’s a PR answer, and at this point, I think it doesn’t matter. Because they are married and they look happy,” she said on “Virtual Reali-Tea.”

Dillard also admitted that “Pena’s credibility is questionable” due to the suspicious circumstances surrounding her split with Guabadia.

As previously reported by Page Six, Guobadia accused his ex-girlfriend of cheating on him with Jaylan Banks in June 2022.

two months later She and Banks announced that they were having a baby together. In October, when Pina was pregnant, Pina accepted an offer from Banks.

However, the couple miscarried in January and broke up a week later.

“It was like a twist and the timeline was very short… She was with a man and now she’s not together. So what came first?” mused Dillard. “Chicken or egg, we don’t know.”

Although Dillard’s curiosity put a bit of tension on “RHUGT,” the “Drive Back” singer says she ultimately enjoys her dealings with Williams overseas, even though fans expect them to feud. however

“When Porsha was announced I’m excited because Porsha is obviously a great ‘housewife’,” she said.

However, Dillard added that she was also reluctant. Because she didn’t know if the producers expected them to talk about their “meat” past.

Dillard and Williams clashed several years ago after the “Dish Nation” host publicly expressed his support for Dillard’s on-screen foe Monique Samuels. In the midst of the fierce battle that took place during the 5th season of “RHOP”

Dillard said, “Contrary to popular belief, I don’t like having lunch with anyone … It’s not something I have to do,” Dillard said. ‘I don’t want to mess with you and end your life with my mouth.’”
