Porsha Williams Seemingly Takes Aim at Nene Leakes In Latest IG Meme Post

The same day Nene Leakes tweeted about an “insecure, not that pretty” close friend of hers, Porsha Williams appears to have hit back.

On Instagram Tuesday, the mom-to-be uploaded a meme meant to encourage herself and others to stay focused on the goals at hand — and to avoid begging people to stay in your life.

“Do not chase people. Work hard and be you. The right people who belong in your life will come and find you and stay. Do your thing,” the message read.

“💯” Williams simply co-signed in the caption.

The post came several hours after Williams’ “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” co-star tweeted, “Have u ever had a close friend that was setting you up for the kill? The gag is, you know it tho! They however wants EVERYBODY to think they are nice, pretty and supportive! but really they r insecure, not that pretty, not talented and certainly not nice! Their day is coming.”

Perhaps that fueled fan’s thoughts that Williams’ post was a warning, too. But it was about her so-called big sis.

Some applauded Williams for apparently putting Leakes in her place while others hoped reconciliation could occur.

“Don’t ever accept any ‘favours’ from Nene again. You will spend the rest of your life paying for that.lgnore her!”

“I’ve never been a huge @porsha4real fan…However, I am loving how you are standing up to @neneleakes!! Stand your ground! I love how you and @thekenyamoore have grown up and evolved. Congratulations on your Baby. Again stand your ground with @neneleakes she is nothing short of a Bully!!”

“Dont sweat the drama between you ladies too much… Nene seems a bit insecure and hurt by some of the slightest misunderstanding. Don’t hold it against her, just keep being the happy person you are and things will work out. Hopefully there can be apologizes and then just moving forward from there.”

“Porsha, don’t let Nene or anyone else steal your joy !!! 😍😙”

Leakes and Porsha have been on the fritz since fingers appeared to be pointed at Leakes for spreading gossip about Williams’ fiancé Dennis McKinley.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

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.
