Things started getting a little strange on Mother’s Day when Williams posted a photo of her with McKinley and Simon, with her hand resting on Simon’s chest. Then, a few days later, Williams confirmed the relationship.

“Our relationship began a month ago—yes we are crazy in love,” she captioned a picture of her and Simon. “I know it’s fast but we are living life each day to its fullest. I choose happiness every morning and every night. Tuning out all negative energy and only focused on positive wishes. He makes me so happy and to me, that is what matters most.”

She went on to say that she had nothing to do with Simon’s divorce from Falynn and that she and Falynn were not friends, despite the fact that Falynn was introduced on RHOA as Williams’ friend.

“Simon and Dennis are committed to being respectful and supportive of my happiness in this situation, as well as being the best co-parents they can be to baby PJ,” she continued. “Two black men stepping up and being amazing people-let’s praise them!!!! It’s truly a beautiful moment in my life & we cannot wait to spend the rest of our lives together. xo”

Later, Simon made his own post, announcing that the two were already engaged.

“What we have is what we wish every single one of you out there – happiness,” he wrote on Instagram. “So when I asked…she said yes. That is ALL that mattered. Thank you again for your love and support. Truly appreciated.”
