On Friday (April 21), The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum took to Instagram to celebrate her daughter’s first-ever ballet recital. Porsha highlighted the event with a video montage, which showed Pilar Jhena McKinley in a pink tutu receiving flowers, dancing on stage, and taking photos with her blended family. This included Porsha’s mother, Diane T. Williams; her sister, Lauren Williams; her husband, Simon Guobadia; as well as her ex-fiancé and PJ's father, Dennis McKinley.

“It’s [Pilar Jhena’s] 1st Ballet recital,” Porsha wrote in the caption, adding that her 4-year-old daughter had butterflies ahead of the performance. “We are so proud of our baby!!! I can report that although she was nervous your insta-neice killed it!!”

RHOA cast members Kandi Burruss and Drew Sidora reacted similarly to the adorable post, commenting “Too cute!” 

The event was also shared on PJ’s Instagram account (managed by Porsha), where fans could scroll through another batch of family photos.

Porsha and Dennis welcomed PJ in March 2019 and announced their separation more than a year later. Though the former couple has experienced many ups and downs, they've since established a cordial co-parenting relationship. This was demonstrated around Father’s Day 2021 when Porsha shared heartwarming photos of Dennis and their then-2-year-old daughter. 

“Your relationship with pooh bear is so beautiful!” she wrote. “Pilar is a true daddy’s girl and I love it!”

PJ’s recital comes weeks after her family traveled to Costa Rica to celebrate her birthday. The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip alum documented the festivities on social media, posting clips and photos of a fireworks display, an inflatable obstacle course, and her daughter’s Minnie Mouse birthday cake. The days-long celebration took place at Porsha and Simon’s beautiful vacation home, where they hosted members of Simon's family.

”A Costa Rica Birthday Fit for a Princess [PJ],” Porsha captioned an Instagram. “The Guobadias know how to have a good time! Fireworks at the house, family obstacle course, cookout, and lots of love. We love you so much whittle munchkin!”
