The honeymoon phase and the marriage are over for the latest cast members on the Real Housewives of Atlanta. Ex-NFL baller Kordell Stewart has filed for a divorce from his wife, Porsha according to AccessAtlanta.com.
Mr. Stewart filed a petition for divorce March 22 in Fulton County Court citing the marriage is "irretrievably broken."
Throughout the season, fellow cast members were somewhat critical of Porsha's traditional role. She was the only "real housewife," opting to stay at home and cater to her husband's every need.
On a girls trip to Vegas her older peers were upset that she refused to attend a strip club outing because her hubby would not approve. The ladies attempted to impart the importance of being independent to Porsha. Porsha fought back saying that as a Christian she felt obligated to obey her husband and felt called to be a positive role model for other young women.
In the eyes of many viewers, Porsha was viewed as a naive, ditsy, trophy wife who could not think for herself. Kordell was viewed as an extremely domineering and controlling Alpha male.
Putting a positive spin on the connotation of being held up as a commodity, Porsha recently told essence.com she had no probelm filling the shoes of a kept woman: "I think it's important for our little girls to know that they can be a princesses and they can have it all...So I feel proud to represent -- and I use the word lightly -- the Black trophy wife."
But she wanted more.
The couple was trying to have a child. During a counseling session in the last episode, there were signs of trouble in paradise. Porsha admitted through tears that she had a miscarriage and was hurt because her husband was not being sensitive. She had also expressed a desire to have a career.Not only did he oppose her working outside of the home, Mr. Stewart wanted Mrs. Stewart to quit the show. Kordell did not understand why Porsha couldn't just be content with keeping their castle.
It was clear that Porsha had an internal conflict with her faith and desire to "have it all," especially because every on-camera conversation she had with Kordell about her aspirations ended with her being saddened, withdrawn, and wiping away tears.
Perhaps these difference are why this fairytale has ended after less than 2 years.
