VIDEO: Mom-to-be Porsha Williams Gets Exhausted by Trick-or-Treaters

Porsha Williams got into the Halloween spirit by dressing up as her own version Dorothy from “The Wizard of Oz” but she wasn’t quite feeling it when it was time to give trick-or-treaters their candy.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star expressed her frustration with kids coming by the house non-stop on her Instagram Story Oct. 31.

“Oh my God, these trick-or-treaters are literally coming back to back,” Williams, who is pregnant with her first child, a girl. “I’m just giving ’em honey buns.”

Williams added in the caption, “This is a dayum workout😩😩”

Earlier that day, Williams and her “Dish Nation” co-hosts spotted their best Halloween ensembles, with Williams becoming “Decatur Dorothy.” It was an ode to where she grew up and the character from the L. Frank Baum book and the hit 1939 film.

On air, Williams explained what trinkets she had in her basket.

“I got some fried chicken in here and I don’t have a little dog so I have a stuffed teddy bear and I have all the Beckies in my basket,” she said, raising up the bucket to show off the items.

Williams kept the energy up on her show much as she did over the weekend during her carnival-themed gender reveal party. The gathering was attended by Williams’ family and friends as well as her fiancé, Dennis McKinley. Video of the event, which featured carnival food like hot dogs and cotton candy, circulated online and even caught the confetti-filled moment that Williams and McKinley learned they’d be welcoming a baby girl.

While Williams appeared upset, she explained what was really going on on “Dish Nation.”

“When we popped it, I saw blue and I was like, ‘Yeah, it’s a boy,'” she said on the Oct. 29 episode. “And then I look in the crowd and pink is everywhere. So then I’m like, ‘Wait, now I’m pissed. Who handed me a blue popper?'”

The mix up confused the star but ultimately she’s excited about her new arrival.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
