Porsha Stewart's much-publicized divorce is about to be finalized so it's time for the Real Housewives of Atlanta star to figure out some nitty gritty details—like whether she's going to go back to her maiden name, Williams.

"I'm going to keep Stewart," she said firmly on The Wendy Williams show yesterday, as reported by Wetpaint. "It's not his name—it's my name...I'm a whole other woman now, and I'm going to own that name."

The RHOA star has come a long way from the meeker woman we saw last season who seemed to put everything aside just to please her husband. "If anybody decided to be a 1950s wife, it was me," she confessed to Wendy. "I was an independent woman and had my own responsibilities, so when I found a man I could cater to…that was all me."

These days, it seems like Porsha is all about reconnecting to that independent woman. She has been focusing on her new line of Naked hair extensions, putting the idea of dating aside for now, and "paying attention to myself."

"Marriage has taught me so much," she also said on Wendy. "[I have] no regrets, just lessons learned."
