Shamea Morton recently spoke about the challenges in her long-standing friendship with Porsha Williams during an interview. Their relationship has faced strains, particularly highlighted in Season 16 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, where unresolved issues came to a head. Despite the tension, there remains optimism for their friendship.
In the interview, Shamea expressed admiration for Porsha’s growth over the years, noting, “We’ve all grown quite a bit and matured.” She appreciated Porsha’s ability to retain her vibrant spirit even amid personal difficulties, such as her ongoing divorce from Simon Guobadia. Shamea believes that Porsha is undergoing necessary changes, stating, “Some of the changes might hurt right now, but they’re for the best for her.”
The friendship’s troubles became more evident when Shamea felt that Porsha preferred her to remain on the sidelines rather than fully participate as a Housewife, indicating a lopsided dynamic. Additionally, Shamea’s feelings were hurt by Porsha’s absence from her wedding in 2017, further complicating their relationship.
In the RHOA After Show, the issue of Porsha skipping the wedding was addressed. While Porsha claimed they weren’t in touch at the time, Shamea expressed surprise to learn that this was Porsha’s reason for not attending, as she had previously been told different excuses.
As they navigate these issues on RHOA, both women seem committed to resolving their differences. Shamea concluded with a hopeful note, committing to let “God’s will be done in our lives,” indicating that she believes their friendship can evolve positively moving forward.
While their journey is fraught with misunderstandings, both Shamea and Porsha are showcasing the importance of maturity and forgiveness in friendships, hinting at a hopeful reconciliation as they work through their challenges together.
