‘Now That’s a Break Up Pic’: Porsha Williams Sends a Cryptic Message and Unfollows Fiancé Dennis McKinley from Instagram

Porsha Williams and her fiancé Dennis McKinley may be having a little trouble in paradise. On Monday, Aug. 10, the reality star of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” unfollowed Dennis from Instagram and wrote a cryptic message in her caption, where she hinted that their engagement was off.

Aside from the message, Porsha shared a sexy full-body photo that showed her rocking a red dress with a low-cut halter top neckline that hugged her curves in all the right places and accentuated her cleavage. The 39-year-old “Dish Nation” talent opted for a short hairstyle, sporting a straight bob with a side part. As for the makeup, Porsha wore a steamy smoky eye, golden highlighter and red lipstick. The mother of one completed her appearance with a gold bracelet and small hoop earrings. Porsha posed for the shot by standing in front of a patterned staircase and smizing at the camera. “You was really really lucky, RELAX,” she captioned the image.

Some people instantly gravitated toward the image and expressed the idea that Porsha and Dennis called their relationship quits. One user wrote underneath the image: “Now that’s a break up pic,” while another person commented, “PLEASE LET HIM KNOW HE LUCKED UP!”

Dennis has not yet responded to Porsha’s post, but he did unfollow her from social media as well. If the rumors are true, this won’t be the first time the couple split up.

During season 12 of “RHOA,” the pair attended a therapy session for couples, in which Dennis revealed to Porsha that he had stepped out on her during the course of their relationship. He claimed that he cheated on her because of intimacy issues during her pregnancy with their now 1-year-old daughter Pilar Jhena’ McKinley and the stress he’d internalized from dealing with Porsha’s postpartum depression.

The founder of Pampered by Porsha forgave Dennis for his infidelity months after the incident and insinuated in a 2019 interview with Entertainment Tonight that the two still had plans to walk down the aisle. “We’re engaged and we’re doing really good. We’re doing the work that needs to be done to have a great foundation and build an amazing family for us,” she said.

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.
