‘This Is a Doll’: Porsha Williams Sends Fans Into Overdrive as She Finally Shows Baby Pilar to the World

At long last, Porsha Williams has finally revealed her baby girl’s face to her fans. “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star showed Pilar Jhena’s face on the final part of “Porsha’s Having a Baby” Sunday, and photos emerged in People magazine that same night, which happened to be Mother’s Day.

“Thank you all for coming on this journey with us!! We are beyond blessed. I’m a Mommy!!! ❤️#MeetBabyPJ #PorshasHavingABaby #MeettheMcKinleys RaisingPJ 📷 @sterlingpics,” Williams captioned a May 12 post of an image shot by Will Sterling.

The photo sees Williams holding Pilar alongside fiancé Dennis McKinley as they all pose together in matching white outfits. The images were snapped when the infant was 7 weeks old. She appears to be sleeping in all the pics.

One shows Pilar lying with her arms up by her side. Another sees her cuddling with dad, of whom she’s the spitting image.

Fans were elated upon seeing the little one’s face for the first time.

“This is a doll!!! Absolutely Beautiful Baby.. ….love you guys!”

“She’s ADORABLE look’s just like her dad…”

“She looks exactly like Dennis awwwwwwwwww😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍”

“Congratulations, she’s beautiful. Glad you found happiness at last. This is the real deal so manage it well 👍😁”

“Princess P favors her daddy so much! Happy First Mothers’ Day, lovely! 💙”

While fans had to wait nearly two months to see Williams’ baby, they already had hints of what she looked like. The day she was born, McKinley snapped a photo of him holding her little foot and shared it on his Instagram Story. There have been tiny peeks atPilar ever since, which her parents posted on the baby’s official Instagram page.

On top of that, Williamshas stated that she’d name her baby after her if she looked like mom.

“I have one other name picked out,” she said during the “RHOA” reunion when asked if Porsha Jr. was going to be her daughter’s name, as she initially teased upon announcing her pregnancy last September. “If the baby comes out and she looks exactly like me, then I will name her Porsha Jr. But if she looks like her dad, which I think she will ’cause I saw her head, I’m gonna name her the other ‘P’ name.”

Once she revealed her baby’s name was Pilar Jhena, it confirmed the infant shared her dad’s looks instead of Williams’.

But while Pilar doesn’t share her mom’s looks, she seems as if she’s got her personality.

“She’s a diva,” Williams told People magazine in April. “Literally, on her one-month celebration is when I saw the most of her personality. When she wants her bottle, she wants it right then. And when she’s done, she’s done. She’s on her own time schedule. She runs our house, literally! We are all on PJ’s beckoning call.”

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.
