According to PEOPLE Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia’s marriage is coming to an end over a year after they tied the knot.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum filed for divorce from Guobadia on Thursday in Atlanta, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE.
News of their split comes as rumors fly online about Guobadia’s citizen status.
However, a source tells PEOPLE the divorce is “unrelated to recent allegations involving Simon’s past.”
The cause of their split is an “ongoing matter,” adds the insider.
Williams, 42, and Guobadia, 59, said “I do” in November 2022 in a Nigerian traditional native law and custom ceremony followed by an American ceremony in Atlanta.
The pair announced their engagement in May 2021 after one month of dating.
“Yes we are crazy in love,” Williams captioned a selfie with Guobadia. “I know it’s fast but we are living life each day to its fullest. I choose happiness every morning and every night.”
Guobadia echoed Williams’ sentiments, telling his followers that he asked her to marry him
“because we checked ALL of each other’s boxes, and then some.”
Earlier this month, the reality star-turned-entrepreneur — who’s mom to 4-year-old daughter Pilar (from a previous relationship) — announced she is set to return to The Real Housewives of Atlanta for its upcoming sixteenth season after two years away from the Bravo series.
She also signed an overall scripted deal with NBCUniversal on “scripted project opportunities across the company’s broadcast and streaming properties.”
“I’m incredibly thankful for the vision and faith NBCUniversal has put in me to be a larger part of their family,” she said in a statement. “I’m looking forward to being back on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and showing the world my new world!”
Williams first joined RHOA back in its fifth season.
After leaving the show in season 13, she and Guobadia appeared together on Real Housewives spinoff Porsha’s Family Matters in 2021.
Of course Porsha is divorcing Simon right before the season 16 cameras start rolling.

Porsha stole that man, and left when she found out he was out in these US OF A streets scamming and being a Fraud. The stories write themselves. We’ll all be seated for this season. #RHOA ????

Porsha snatched that man from boring falyn and got a spin off with Simon & Dennis, an nbc production deal and a fat check for returning to rhoa with an immigration scandal and a divorce storyline locked and loaded. A Duchess of deception pic.twitter.com/kKT6sTHV9e https://t.co/5bKSWTbmp1

I don’t know who the RHOA newbies are, but one of them needs to take advantage of this Porsha situation. They need to ask all of the necessary questions, and leave no stone unturned.
If one of them can do that, and get answers, it’ll set them up for a good Housewives career. pic.twitter.com/DAzXgjb7MF
