‘There’s a Lil Boy on the Way?’: Dennis McKinley Leaves Fans Shook After He Calls Porsha Williams ‘DJ’s’ Mama

Porsha Williams, the mother to 1-year-old Pilar Jhena’ McKinley, hasn’t mentioned anything about being pregnant again. But it’s possible that her fiancé, Dennis McKinley, recently let the cat out of the bag. On Wednesday, May 13, McKinley, a cast member of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” hinted in an Instagram post that he and Williams were expecting a baby boy.

The restaurant owner posted a photo that showed him holding Williams. As one knee was bent, the 38-year-old Williams lifted her other leg and posed with her hand on the back of her head. McKinley smiled wide in the photo and implied through a series of hashtags the reason behind his glow. He wrote: “#Love#PJMomma#DJMomma#Working#TheMcKinleys ❤️🙏🏾.”

McKinley referred to Williams as DJ’s mother, suggesting that the pair will name their son Dennis McKinley Jr. The “Dish Nation” radio personality did not address the hastags. She did, however, comment, “Love you ❤️.”

Fans were shook by the hashtag and flooded McKinley’s comments section with their questions.

“There’s a lil boy on the way?!”

“Is @porsha4real pregnant?????Who is DJ????😍”

“Wayment……#DJMOMMA?????? Did I miss an announcement somewhere???? But anywho the pic and couple are dope!”

“Dj mommy 🤔🤔🤔.”

“Ok DJ momma!!! Speak it into existence ✊🏾😂❤️❤️❤️.”

“DJ Momma? She pregnant? 👀.”

“Dj 🧐🧐🧐🧐 is Dennis jr on the way.”

“DJMomma? What you trying to tell us P? 🤰🏽.”

Williams and McKinley share a daughter in Pilar. McKinley reportedly cheated on Williams during and her after pregnancy with their daughter. On season 12 of “RHOA,” the two attended couples therapy, where McKinley admitted that he stepped out on their relationship because of intimacy issues during the pregnancy and stress he endured from Williams’ postpartum depression.

The pair are continuing to work out their relationship and still have plans to tie the knot despite McKinley’s infidelity. A wedding date has not yet been set, nor has Williams’ second pregnancy been confirmed.

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.
