Was Porsha Williams Arrested? ‘RHOA’ Star Speaks Out After In-Flight Altercation
She didn’t start it.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star is speaking out via her lawyer after a headline-making incident on a Delta flight following her appearance at BravoCon 2025. A rep for the reality TV personality says the FBI had to get involved after Williams’ altercation with an “unhinged” passenger.
Porsha Williams was “verbally assaulted” on recent Delta flight
“Ms. Williams was verbally assaulted by an irate and unhinged passenger without provocation. The passenger then proceeded to make false allegations that were in direct conflict with observations from several eyewitnesses,” Williams’ lawyer, Joe Habachy, told Page Six.
“As with any incident occurring aboard an aircraft, federal authorities are required to conduct an investigation involving all parties to determine what, if any, offenses occurred,” Habachy added. He said that his client had “every intention of cooperating with law enforcement to whatever extent necessary, and remains confident that the passenger will be charged.”
On Monday, TMZ shared a video showing law enforcement escorting Williams off the plane in Atlanta on Sunday night. Williams seemed unbothered in the brief clip. She smiled as spoke to officers and blew a kiss to a bystander.
The FBI has confirmed that it is investigating an in-air incident involving Williams and another individuals. A spokesperson said the agency is “looking to see whether any federal charges may or may not apply.” Neither Williams nor the other person were arrested after the flight landed.
‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ star was ‘filled with all the love’ after BravoCon 2025
Williams’ trip home from Las Vegas took an unfortunate turn. But she still had a positive experience at her second-ever BravoCon, where she appeared with some of her fellow RHOA cast members on the “Viva Las Atlanta Peaches” panel.
“Keep pushing! I thank God everyday that i’m in my right mind and not only haven’t lost myself but i’ve found & appropriate a better me,” she wrote on Instagram. “Leaving BravoCon I’m filled with all the love and warmth and support from our beautiful fans. I just wanna extend a thank you from the bottom of my heart for not only your prayers but for being with me on this journey call[ed] life.”
“No more survival mode we will thrive!!” added Williams, who finalized her divorce from Simon Guobadia in June. “We are kicking depressions ass!!”
The now-single Williams is dating again after her split from Guobadia. She’s also expanded her dating pool to include both men and woman.
“I’m happy. I feel fulfilled, I feel free, I feel liberated,” she said at BravoCon. “I’m enjoying dating. It’s a whole different way to date, you know what I mean? And I love that I have decided to just move into this transition of being open to male or female in such a natural way.”
