'Real Housewives Of Atlanta' Star Porsha Stewart: Ex Kordell Was More Of A Father Than A Husband
Nov. 19 2013, Published 12:22 p.m. ET
Porsha Stewart is facing her divorce drama from estranged husband Kordell Stewart … by going to therapy.
In the upcoming episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Porsha learns through therapy that Kordell may have been more of a father figure to her, than a husband.
“When Kordell filed for divorce, it really hit me hard,” Porsha explained about her visit to the therapist. "I completely pulled back from everyone. And now, I need to sit down and finally face what’s going on."
During their session, the therapist asked Porsha: “Was your name on the deed? Was your name on the bank accounts?”
The reality star shook her head as if to say “no.”
“You could have been a hired help to take care of it,” the therapist tells her. “When you have no funds and resources, you become quite dependent on someone.”
Porsha responded, “That’s what I thought being a wife was.”
“Did you really have a husband or did you have a father?” the doctor asked.
“I think it was more like a father, but that’s what attracted me to him because my father died when I was 17 years old,” the RHOA star said, adding she wanted someone who wasn't afraid to take charge.
"My father always had a plan for his family. I trusted him to provide for me, and I thought that Kordell had that characteristic."
The therapist countered the thoughts, bluntly telling Porsha, “The reality is, it’s not the same relationship. You don’t sleep with your father."
Overcome by a flood of emotions, Porsha broke down.
“Then why did he marry me?” she sobbed as her therapist fires back, "The real question is why did you marry him?"
