The Real Housewives of Atlanta Reunion Part 3: We Need to Talk About Porsha Williams

Another shocking violent outburst from the RHOA star was revealed in the final act of the reunion

How many passes should one person get before they truly start being held accountable for their behavior?

That's the question lingering in our mind after watching last night's conclusion to the three-part Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion special where some shocking news came to light regarding Porsha Williams and what's become an alarming streak of violent behavior. After allusions to Porsha having "a problem" in an earlier hour, we learned last night that Porsha lost her cool at Phaedra Parks' holiday party and chased after her friend and employee Jami, following her into an alleyway and assaulting her. 

This is now the third time Porsha's been involved in a violent altercation while cameras were rolling, the second this season alone—and frankly, it's three times too many.

Porsha admitted to enrolling in anger management classes, which is admirable, but the way she continually placed blame for her violent reactions to heated situations on the person who got her heated has us convinced that she still has plenty of work to do. But should she continue  to do it in front of cameras? It's clear that the other women in the cast, save for her BFF Phaedra and Kim Fields, are either uncomfortable working with Porsha or resigned to the fact that they'll probably have to physically defend themselves if things ever get heated. And that's not good.

The Real Housewives franchise lives and dies by its dramatic moments, but when the juicy arguments devolve into actual physical altercations, the fun stops. One time can be written off as a mistake, a heat-of-the-moment situation that went entirely too far. But three times is a pattern. Three times is an indication of a deeper issue. Three times, frankly, should be enough for Porsha to consider stepping away to better herself privately. If we were any of her co-stars, we'd demand it.

What do you think about Porsha's violent behavior? Sound off in the comments below.
