Porsha Williams In Labor? Why Her Fiancé’s New Photo Has Fans Thinking the Baby Is on the Way

Porsha Williams celebrated her soon-to-be motherhood with a winter wonderland-themed baby shower Sunday, and after all was said and done her fiancé inadvertently may have told fans she’s giving birth.

Dennis McKinley posted an ode to his wife-to-be on his Instagram page Monday using his handle @workwincelebrate.

“Thank you to everyone who sent/showed love for baby PJ! We are appreciative of the prayers, well wishes & gifts! Porsha it’s your time to be a mother 🙏🏾❤️ #PJBabyShower,” McKinley, an Atlanta restaurant and business owner, captioned the Feb. 25 post.

McKinley held nothing back from his Instagram followers as he showed off just how proud he was of Williams carrying his baby girl. The accompanying photo showed “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star with her belly prominently on display, and seemingly without any clothing on her body.

Fans took notice of the bold display.

“Wait, is that naked picture of porsha? Wow.”

“P out here naked?! 😍😂”

“Who dat? Lol. Porsha? CONGRATS y’all!! Baby PJ! 😘”

But more speculated that McKinley’s choice of words — that it’s Williams’ “time to be a mother” — meant that the reality star is currently in labor.

“Wait does that mean the baby is on the way🤗🤗🤗”

“Yayyyyyyyyy shes in labor. Her water broke and PJ will be here by tomorrow 👏🏽🎉👏🏽🎊👏🏽😍 @porsha4real i think she 7lbs.6ounces.”

“Omg! @workwincelebrate @porsha4real I woke up to this. Neither one of yall called me. Lord let me get dressed my sister in labor. Come on and push @porsha4real tee tee is ready. I will be there by 7am est. Whew Chile I’m nervous and excited. We gotta baby to raise. I love yall @porsha4real and @workwincelebrate. @swindlinghearts @4evaprettyred_22 wake tf up we gotta road trip. I think our baby otw.😍😍🙌🏽🙌🏽”

“Wow in labor already safe delivery honey to you and baby god blessings.”

Williams herself, however, has given no signs that she is in labor. The most recent post on her page is a teaser for photos shot for The B Collective magazine. The soon-to-be-mom looks regal in a custom Lavie By CK gown, which she appears to have worn at the shower.

The event featured a host of Williams’ current and former “RHOA” co-stars who came out to celebrate her big moment. Peach holders Cynthia BaileyEva Marcille, alum Kenya Moore, and friends of the show Tanya SamShamea Morton and Marlo Hampton all showed up to support Williams.

Still independent.

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.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
