Born to self-employed entrepreneurs in Atlanta, Georgia on June 22, 1981, Porsha Williams attended Southwest DeKalb High School in Decatur, Georgia. She earned a degree in Business Information Technology from American Intercontinental University in Schaumburg, Illinois. As a youth, Porsha was brimming with beauty and confidence, and she always had the tenacity to be on her own, as if this characteristic was running through her veins. This attitude drove her to open a daycare facility at the age of 24. Porsha also worked at the Lucky Lounge in Atlanta, Georgia. It was during this time that she began seeing Kordell Stewart, a footballer. They fell in love and were married in 2011. This was the point in time when Porsha Stewart (post-marriage name) rose to instant fame.
Her television career was a by-product of her wedding to Kordell Stewart, which was showcased on the show Platinum Weddings on WE TV. In 2012, the reality television shows The Real Housewives of Atlanta chose Stewart and Kenya Moore for the fifth season of the show, along with the other cast from the previous season. On the show, she took up all endeavors and jobs with full enthusiasm and dedication. In the sixth season of Real Housewives, her marriage was showcased, which was going through a tough phase at that time. She was also hospitalized due to the stress incurred upon her during this period. Porsha has also been a co-host of Dish-Nation since 2014.
Porsha had also been modeling and appearing in music videos since early childhood. Her early modeling works include being a model for an Atlanta Dymes pin-up calendar in 2005. On March 17, 2014, Williams released her debut single, “Flatline.” The public response to her single is not yet known. She was then seen filming for the reunion of the sixth season of Real Housewives at the Biltmore Hotel on March 27, 2014.
Porsha has also been in the news for a few wrong reasons. During the entire show, she has been in the frame for her spat with Kenya Moore. Both contestants were seen exchanging harsh words with one another. They didn't hesitate to ruin each other's character on national television. Additionally, Porsha was also arrested by the police for reckless driving under a suspended license on December 29th, 2014.
The troubled personal life of Porsha Stewart has been in the news more than her work. Her husband filed for divorce in 2013 and eventually they separated. Following their separation, there were rumors in the social circuit about Porsha being unfaithful in the relationship. Porsha Williams is still known by the name Stewart.
