Porsha Williams is embracing the LGBT+ chapter of her life. Just five months after her high-profile divorce from Simon Guobadia, the former star of Real Housewives of Atlanta has made her new relationship with Patrice “Sway” McKinney public.
The couple shared a series of sweet, affectionate photos on social media, marking a romantic milestone.
They went Instagram-official on Friday, November 28, in a heartfelt tribute for Sway’s birthday. Porsha, 44, radiating joy, posted beautiful pictures of her and Sway, an entrepreneur and professional stylist based in Atlanta, surrounded by festive holiday decorations. In one delightful photo, the two are seen laughing in front of an elegant Christmas tree. In another, Sway is playfully embracing Porsha, kissing her cheek and affectionately squeezing her waist, clearly showcasing their love and happiness.
Wishing Sway a joyful birthday, Porsha captioned the post, “Happiest Birthday @sway_thepro! Hope this year continues to bring you everything you want and more!” She also teased upcoming plans, saying, “Can’t wait to act up Saturday!” The post featured a charming video of the pair dancing closely at a nightclub, with Porsha resting her head on Sway’s shoulder.
While this news might catch some fans off guard, Porsha had hinted at this new romantic direction last month. Speaking at CultureCon 2025, she revealed that following her split from Simon in February 2024, she had focused her dating efforts on just two individuals, sharing, “The people who I’m talking to now, it’s just two. I narrowed it down to two, and he is nice, and she is nice.”
Now, it seems Porsha has found her match in Sway. As a devoted mother to her 6-year-old daughter, Pilar, Porsha has always emphasized the importance of pursuing healthy relationships and prioritizing her personal growth after going through therapy.
