Porsha Williams shaded Kelli Ferrell for “dragging” tea from “four years ago.” The Real Housewives of Atlanta star said her co-star is “always reaching” and “came in hot,” but Porsha “cooled her down.”
Last season, Kelli suggested that Porsha sleeps with married men. Shortly into the new season, Porsha accused her of sleeping with married men, which Kelli denied. After the accusation, Kelli made little effort to be friends with her (which seemed to surprise Porsha). In a later episode, Porsha accused Kelli of trying to come onto her.
On Sherri, Porsha addressed Kelli’s accusation that she’s sleeping with married men.
“She is just dragging tea from like four years ago,” said Porsha. “This show is about showing Black women who are established, who have a wonderful life, fulfilled life in themselves, so they don’t have to focus on other people.”
“If they end up focusing on you, they’re going to read you,” she went on. “But they’re not making me their storyline. Those women, you pay attention to them, they got it going on. They got businesses, they got husbands, they got things. And I just think it’s very unfortunate when some of the girls come on the show, and they have to kind of search and reach.”
According to Porsha, Kelli is “always reaching” due to “other reasons.”
“She’s reaching. And she can’t quite get it,” she continued. “Who even handed her the peach? … I don’t know. But listen, Kelli sometimes [is] cool, sometimes she’s not. I think that if you can dish it out, you should be able to receive it back to you.”
“And you should be able to move on,” she added. “I think it is very clear she tried to come in hot, and I just cooled her down.”
In an early episode, Porsha claimed that a married man slept with Kelli — and then immediately called Porsha’s ex while Porsha was in the room. Many fans questioned whether Porsha made up the story to get back at Kelli for her accusations from last season.
