Porsha Williams shares an emotional goodbye to Real Housewives of Atlanta after 10 wild seasons.

“This was a difficult decision to not only make, but also come to terms with,” she continued. “It's one I have put a lot of thought into and because of that, I know it's the right one.”
The former Dish Nation host thanked producers at Bravo and her fans for their undying support over the years.
“I have so much love and endless gratitude for my Bravo family and supporters. You’ve made the past decade a truly special one,” Williams explained. “One where I've dealt with unbelievable highs and unbelievable lows, and I can honestly say I would not have made it through some of them without the unconditional love and support I have gotten from all of you.”
