There have been reports on entertainment blogs that “Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast member Porsha Williams had announced that she was getting her own spinoff reality show after being humiliated by her demotion on RHOA.
Diary of a Hollywood Street King, in particular, said Porsha was embarrassed last month when Andy Cohen announced her demotion on RHOA and came up with a scheme to pronounce her own reality show in order to save face.
“Porsha is trying to do damage control because she’s feels like sh*t. The producers of RHOA know nothing about her imaginary spin off show.
Porsha came out and confirmed on whether she is getting her own show, and whether she was the one who announced it:

According to GossipCop.com:
Porsha Williams never “lied” about getting a “Real Housewives of Atlanta” spinoff, because she never said that was happening in the first place.
A number of outlets are wrongly claiming that Williams “leaked a false rumor” about the potential show, frustrated about her smaller role in upcoming “Real Housewives” episodes.
That simply is NOT the case.
On “Dish Nation,” Williams was asked about rumors that she’ll be getting a spinoff and set the record straight.
She explained, “I don’t know who leaked that… I haven’t spoken to anybody from Bravo who said they were going to be releasing any information like that.”
When she was again pressed about whether she’d be getting any kind of show, Williams replied, “I cannot confirm that. I mean, I am working on a project, this is true. And it is for TV, and I am executive producing it.”
Last spring, Williams’ fight with Kenya Moore on the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” reunion special became one of the most talked-about reality TV moments of the year.
In the wake of the incident, Williams was demoted from full cast member to “friend.”
While it’s clear she’ll have a future reality TV role, the idea that she invented a fake spinoff rumor is totally off base.
