The glittering world of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is no stranger to shattered alliances. The latest implosion between Porsha Williams and Shamea Morton is sending shockwaves. A sneak peek of RHOA Season 16, Episode 11, hints at brewing trouble. It shows heartfelt discussions about faltering support. The drama intensifies. It’s revealed others in the group have been questioning their friendship.
RHOA: “Pick Up Your Dignity and Cut Her Loose!”
Viewers have flooded social media with strong opinions. Many feel this breakdown was long overdue. One commenter didn’t mince words. “When Shamea was a friend to the show some years ago she had the same issue with Porsha not sticking up for her to others.” The commenter continued, “Here we are years later and the same issue is resurfacing. Shamea, is this your storyline because Porsha already showed you (and us) that she is not your friend. Pick up your dignity and cut her loose.”
Another user stated bluntly, “Shamea is too grown to have stayed in a one sided friendship for so long.” The feeling of a lopsided dynamic is a recurring theme. “How red did the flags have to get for Shamea to realise Porsha is not a friend,” questioned another viewer.
One person pointed out a perceived hypocrisy. This viewer commented that Shamea aired her feelings to Angela. Yet, she claims she’d never risk her friendship with Porsha. The commenter called it “delusional af.”
RHOA: “Porsha Has Dogged Shamea Out!”
Adding fuel to the fire, a Reddit thread discussing Kandi Burruss’s early observations has resurfaced. One user quoted Kandi directly: “Porsha has dogged Shamea out, treated her like shit, aaannd now she doesn’t even wanna go to the girls wedding so to me I’m like mmmmmmm, you really need her as your friend?”
The Reddit commentary further dissects the troubled friendship. A comment notes, “Porsha and Shamea have deep-rooted issues that were never resolved and were just swept under the rug.” This user added, “On the surface, it always seemed like a one-sided friendship with no reciprocity.” The commenter also stated, “Porsha on the other hand, doesn’t seem like she cares about anybody but herself. Nene told us a long time ago that Porsha ain’t nobody’s friend.”

RHOA: A Friendship on the Brink
The core of the issue, as many see it, lies in a lack of boundaries. Unreciprocated loyalty is also a major factor. “This is what happens if you don’t tell your friends, they hurt you and you don’t have boundaries in your friendship,” remarked one viewer. Another comment offered advice. “Note to Shamea … stop down playing it and let Porsha know when she hurts your feelings. This is how you prevent this type of situation in the future.”
The sentiment that Shamea may feel “indebted to Porsha in some way” was also voiced. Some felt her actions were “giving weak…” As the drama unfolds, viewers are left wondering. Is this truly the end for Porsha and Shamea? Or is it just another painful chapter?
