US based Nigerian business man, Simon Guobadia has married his fiance, American reality TV star, Porsha Williams in a traditional ceremony.
The couple held their Nigerian native law and custom on Friday at Four Seasons Hotel in Atlanta, in the presence of about 250 guests.
A second American wedding will hold on Saturday.
A native of Benin City in Edo State, Guobadia is the CEO of Simcol Petroleum Limited Company, as well as a relative of Aisha Guobadia, a former gold merchant and socialite jailed in the United Kingdom for some time before returning to Nigeria in 2000.
While this is Guobadia’s fourth marriage, it is Porsha’s first.
Simon has five children: Christian, Nicole, Benjamin, Quentin and Ximena, from two of his previous three marriages.
His first marriage was with Karron English and it lasted 20 years. The second marriage was with Connie Andrade-Rivera. His last marriage to a much younger lady, Falynn, which was contracted in 2019 and ended in 2021, didn’t produce any child.
57 year old Simon, who graduated from Columbia University, lives in Georgia.
40-year-old Porsha used to be engaged to a certain Dennis Mckenly, an African-American whom she bore a daughter, but ended their relationship, perhaps for not being such a lavish spender like some of the African men she had dated in the past.
Porsha was once involved with oil baron, Jide Omokare, who has since gone into oblivion, following his fraud case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
At another time, she was involved with Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue jnr, the son of a former President of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo.
