The news of Porsha and Kordell Stewart headed for divorce has been the talk of the reality TV world for the past couple of days as the news hit this week that the two were ending their marriage. Kordell made the first move with the filing of the divorce papers, issuing a statement shortly after. Porsha claims that Kordell beat her to the punch as she had been thinking about divorcing him and was blindsided by the whole thing. When the news first broke, Kordell seemed to be hurt about his filing for divorce from Porsha. Now though he appears to be singing a different tune as he has gone from being crushed over the situation to shading Porsha, posting cryptic messages on his Instagram account and appeared to be calling her a gold digger. Through it all, Porsha’s RHOA cast mates have been there for her.

Although Porsha has admitted that she is hurt over the situation and was said to have gotten very emotional talking about her marriage on the reunion show, that hasn’t stopped Porsha from looking to get what see feels she is owed, the reality TV show star now wanting alimony from her soon-to-be ex-husband as Porsha feels that her marriage to Kordell caused her professional life to be placed on the back burner as she was taking care of Kordell’s son Syre and that she hasn’t had the opportunity to focus on her career because of the time she has spent taking care of his son. An insider close to Porsha tells E! Online that Porsha has finally gotten to the point where she is standing up for herself and that Porsha stayed around in the marriage longer than she desired to because of her close attachment to Syre, the source adding that Syre even refers to Porsha as ‘Mom’:

“She is standing up for herself, finally. She has stayed in that marriage and in that home for all this time because there was a child involved. She loves Syre like he is her own. She was with Syre all the time, and he even calls her ‘Mom.’ She wants to do what is best for Kordell’s son and so that’s why she hasn’t taken action before now—she wanted to try and keep everything amicable. She put up with everything Kordell did because of Syre. She couldn’t leave before, she just couldn’t do that to him.”

 

It was also revealed that Porsha and Kordell are still living together but are definitely in a state of separation.

And as far as support goes, NeNe Leakes is giving Porsha plenty of it as the source also told E! that Porsha and NeNe have plans to spend some time together in NY:

“NeNe has been a fabulous friend to Porsha. She has given her a shoulder to cry on. The two of them may be going out this weekend. Porsha is still trying to deal with what has happened so everything is up in the air, but, at the moment, the plan is for them to have some friend time together in New York.”

  1. I hope Porsha makes the most out of all the attention she’s getting from this divorce. If not, she’s a fool. LOL.

  2. Good for her. Take the damn gloves all and get that spousal support. That meat head wanted you not to work for two years, he owes you two years of spousal support.

    1. Yessss, hunty!!! He demanded her to stay at home & now all of a sudden he won’t support her? SMH, stupid. You took her out of the work force for years Kordell…you OWE this woman!

      Side-note: Ladies, keep a nest egg under your pillow for moments like this…hehehe

  3. I hope Porsha takes him for everything hes got and more. He wanted a woman to solely depend on him so he should have no problem giving her any money.

  4. I just hope she gets her money. Kordell is a bastard. The fact that he doesn’t want to pay anything when he demanded she stop working is ridiculous.

  5. Posrha, go ahead and hire Usher’s Attorney. Y’all know his lawyer got the hook up in Georgia courts, right?
