Falynn Pina Says Ex Simon Guobadia and Porsha Williams Were ‘Together for a Year’ While She was Still ‘Happily Married’ to Him

Falynn Pina, reality star and former wife of Simon Guobadia, says she always believed her ex-husband’s marriage to her “Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast mate Porsha Williams was not real.

However, the disrespect she says she felt from both parties was very real due to the timeline of when she and Guobadia separated and when he and Williams began dating.

Four months after filing for divorce from his then-wife in January 2021, Simon was engaged to Porsha and they officially tied the knot in November 2022.

During an interview with “The Baller Alert Show,” Falynn said she felt “vindicated” by the dissolution of Porsha and Simon’s marriage— adding that she never thought that the two were ever truly in love.

The 34-year-old now mom of four said she thought that their relationship “was just a ploy” to get back at her.

“I’m not gonna say like there wasn’t any parts, you know, that he might have thought could have been authentic or something could have grown,” Falynn did admit, adding, “I don’t know their business.”

She believes their “initial … becoming public and doing everything the way that they went about everything … was definitely a ploy.”

“They were already together for a year probably, while I was happily married [to Simon],” she said, adding that Porsha’s child’s father Dennis actually told her.

Like many in the public, Falynn expressed that she’s observing from the sidelines as Simon and Porsha battle it out on social media with cryptic posts and captions. Watching this unfold has solidified her resolve never to reconcile with him.

Falynn joined the Bravo series for season 13, where she met Porsha and invited her and a few other ladies from the cast to the home she shared with Simon at the time. She said she married Simon when she was 26 and he was in his 50s, noting that all his current behavior is actually reminiscent of his past playboy ways that he had during their two-year marriage.

“It’s retraumatizing for me, cause I am the one who went through it first,” she said.

Falynn, who is currently working on a dating reality show, says she often sees Simon out and about but they never speak. She did admit that she had “reached out” to him via email before his divorce from Porsha was made public, but in vain.

“You have to understand, Simon and I were actually married. It was real,” she said. “Our marriage was very real.”

But according to her, they “never had an ending discussion” to put any punctuation signifying the end of their relationship.

“We never said goodbye. We never said I wish you well,” she said, adding there was not real closure. “It just went away. One day I was happy and the next day he was gone,” she further explained, “He just never came back to the house.”

Falynn said that when he came back to the house months later, she told him that she had to leave their marital home and that she only had three weeks.

“He sent me a text,” she said about the separation. Brokenhearted and abandoned, she said that her ex eventually offered her more time to stay in home, but she had to leave because her joy was gone.

This is the same home Porsha moved into with her daughter, Pilar, and Simon’s children. Many fans in the comment were not falling for what they thought was a sob story, bringing up Falynn’s ex-fiancé and the father of her youngest child, Jaylan Banks.
