Whew, chile! Simon Guobadia is continuing to use Instagram as a diary about his divorce proceedings with Porsha Williams. This time, though, he’s apologizing to his family for his online tussles.
Early on Friday morning, the entrepreneur hopped on the social media platform to make a statement about his family’s integrity. Throughout his post, Guobadia mentioned that he refused to be reduced to a storyline.
“The Guobadia Family has always been a prideful family. Probably one of the largest families in Nigeria. Our name is literally tied to one single family. Meaning, most people with the last name “Guobadia” are related. So when one of their family member is reduced to a “Storyline,” thousands of family members are also affected by the narrative created and meant to destroy. I want to publicly acknowledge and apologize to my family; the GUOBADIAs for the pain my poor judgment may have caused and brought upon our family name. I’m so sorry. I beg for your forgiveness,” Guobadia wrote.
Simon’s comment seemingly arrived just one day after his latest heated exchange with his estranged wife. As mentioned, the former couple has continued to exchange messages on social media amid their divorce.
The Roomies immediately hopped into The Shade Room comment section to share their thoughts on Simon’s statement.
Instagram user @justshylo wrote, “Nigerian here, we don’t his family.”
Instagram user @crystalinfluence wrote, “You married a reality tv star that you met on a reality tv while cheating on your girlfriend who was also on a reality tv show…you been a storyline…now it’s a problem shut up!”
Then Instagram user @keila722 wrote, “He could have texted them that on WhatsApp.”
While Instagram user @enrogue0 wrote, “Why did Porsha unleash this man on us? What did we do to deserve this?”
Instagram user @katncala wrote, “How do we unsubscribe from Porsha and Simon news?”
Instagram user @kekejsmoochez wrote, “Well… the Nigerians in the comments don’t know who his family is.”
Simon’s latest post coincidentally arrives on the heels of Porsha requesting permission to film ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ in their shared residence.
Per RadarOnline, Porsha filed an emergency order on May 20. The reality star believes that filming her time at home is “vital to her ability to sustain her income and employment.” Therefore, “there is no logical or rational reason” why Simon should stop her from recording her daily activities at their home.
Porsha also believes that Simon is trying to prevent her from sharing personal information about him while she appears on ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta.’ However, she has confirmed that she will respect his wishes and refrain from showing areas that are “personal” to her estranged husband.
Before Porsha requested to film at her and Simon’s shared mansion, Simon reportedly sent a cease and desist letter to the product company behind ‘RHOA’ in March. According to Page Six, Simon has asked the company to stop filming at his Georgia mansion.
