        Simon Guobadia has filed a motion to dismiss the f Simon Guobadia has filed a motion to dismiss the federal defamation lawsuit he previously brought against his ex-wife, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams.

The lawsuit, originally filed in November 2024, stemmed from Instagram posts made by Williams in July 2024 that Guobadia claimed falsely implied he suffered from erectile dysfunction. According to court filings, Guobadia alleged the posts were directed at him and caused reputational harm, emotional distress, and damage to his professional standing amid their very public divorce.

Court records show that on Friday, January 23, 2025, Guobadia filed a Motion to Dismiss the case in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. No ruling has been issued at this time, and the matter remains pending.

Guobadia and Williams married in November 2022 and filed for divorce in February 2024. Their split has continued to play out publicly through court filings and social media, drawing widespread attention.

Kenya Moore is still in eviction court, the Hair Spa isn’t generating business, and the questions are stacking up.

Kenya Moore’s attorney revealed in court this week that the Hair Spa space was intended for filming — not daily clients. 👀

So when folks said it looked like a content creation space… were they really “haters,” or just early? 🤔

Receipts matter. Courts matter. Words matter.

Watch till the end & tell me what YOU think ⬇️👇🏽

How do you ask the court to seal divorce records while continuing to talk about the divorce publicly?

This clip breaks down why Todd Tucker’s motion to keep the case open may be a legal strategy, not shade — and how public pressure often leads to faster settlements.

Receipts > rumors.
Chess > checkers.
