Porsha Williams clapped back after she was busted for hiring actors to play her love interests on “Real Housewives of Atlanta.”
Last year Porsha claimed she had 2 lovers – a male and a female. She introduced her male love interest – Michael “Mike” Anthony – in the Season 17 premiere.

In a bizarre video shared by @kountrywayne and @thebravoshaderoom on Instagram, Mike spoke with a man who told him that filming for RHOA would be good for his “following” and “brand.” He claimed he knows a producer who says they “need a guy” to be a “love interest” for Porsha.
In the caption of the post, The Bravo Shade Room wrote, “Wait! Mike was just a paid actor?”
Porsha wrote: “Absolutely false story. This is a SKIT filmed after rhoa season.”
Porsha previously introduced her female “love interest,” Patrice “Sway” McKinney, in October last year. RHOA viewers are skeptical of their relationship as it does not seem genuine.
Social media users dragged Porsha and Bravo for hiring Mike as Porsha’s love interest when they have zero chemistry together.
“Who asked for this cast?” one viewer wrote on X.com.
Viewers of RHOA gave the season 17 premiere a thumbs down.
Of course she cannot keep up with all them LIES.

Porsha is allowed to fight, MULTIPLE times, take a cast mate's husband and marry him for his properties, threatened to sleep with another one, accused someone of sleeping with her baby daddy because she lacks storyline, and comes back the next season with 2 fake relationships.

Hasn’t Mike been on forty something reality shows ??!? I’m so tired of these fake storylines. #RHOA

Just not interested. #RHOA is dead and buried! Who asked for this cast? Apart from Drew who seems to carry the show on her back nowadays im not excited to see none of these people. Thats disappointing cos ATL was the franchise back in da day but now they've scrapped the barrel
