Check Out Porsha Williams' Childhood Pics, Before The Real Housewives of Atlanta
The returning cast member' baby photos are incredibly adorable, just like those of her own mini-me daughter.
Before she was a Real Housewife, Porsha Williams entered the world on June 22, 1981 as an adorable baby girl. Her parents, Hosea Williams II and Diane T. Williams, probably had no idea that their sweet baby girl would grow up to be on The Real Housewives of Atlanta — or what RHOA would turn out to be, for that matter. But they also couldn't predict what a powerhouse model and performer their little girl would become later in life.
Keep scrolling to take a look back at photos of Porsha in her childhood years.
Young Porsha Williams Taking a Bath
Fans have seen that look before, but never on a Porsha this little. Here, the future model poses with her older brother, Hosea Williams III. She also has another brother, Brenton Williams, and sister, Lauren Williams.
"I grew up living a good life," Porsha told Upscale magazine in April 2015. "I was raised by my mom and spent weekends with my dad because they were separated. My mom has always been my biggest inspiration. She taught me that beauty comes from the inside out; but I also know that the outside does matter."
Porsha Williams and Lauren Williams as Children
Although Porsha is six years older than her little sister Lauren, the women are incredibly close as adults.
"Lauren and I are half-sisters. We share the same dad," Porsha explained in an interview during Season 13, Episode 5. "She lived with Daddy, and I more so came over on the weekends, but saying 'half-anything' would get you a spanking in the house."
The women also opened up about what it was like to lose their father when they were young.
"I remember him waking up in the morning, kissing me on the forehead, and going to work, not coming back until it was time to go to bed," Lauren noted in the same episode. "So he was very consistently there, definitely. But I don't know how to compare that to you [Porsha] because you were in a whole other household, and you only saw him on the weekends."

In this photo, the very little future Housewife bears a striking resemblance to her daughter, Pilar Jhena McKinley.
In February 2024, Porsha shared a set of photos to Instagram that featured her daughter smiling big in a pink sweater set alongside her husband, Simon Guobadia. Naturally, she added the hashtag "My Twin" — a sentiment with which we can all agree.
Porsha also coparents PJ with her ex, Dennis McKinley.
“It’s going great, it really is,” Porsha said during a June 2023 appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. “Yeah, we live near each other. Our relationship is good.”

While she's obviously adorable, Porsha once revealed she was bullied for her looks as a child.
"My outside beauty wasn't always so pretty, though," she shared in the above Upscale magazine interview. "I went to school in DeKalb County, (Chapel Hill Elementary and Junior High) [and] was bullied all through elementary and junior high for being super skinny with big teeth, and, believe it or not, other black girls would tease me and pull my hair because it was long."
