‘RHOA’ fans outraged after Porsha Williams’ fiancé blames postpartum depression for his cheating

Unless he can see into the future, the timeline of Dennis McKinley's excuse is (quite literally) backwards.

Porsha Williams' fiancé Dennis McKinley is experiencing a bit of public backlash this week, after the latest episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta showed him bizarrely blaming her postpartum depression for his decision to cheat on her while she was still pregnant with their first child.

Porsha Williams‘ fiancé Dennis McKinley is experiencing a bit of public backlash this week, after the latest episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta showed him bizarrely blaming her postpartum depression for his decision to cheat on her while she was still pregnant with their first child.

According to The Blast, the couple allowed cameras to follow them into a painful therapy session as they discussed the infidelity that lead to them separating.

Viewers were tuned in as the 38-year-old reality star opened up about her feelings of betrayal. But when McKinley was asked for his side during a couple’s therapy session and prodded to reveal what caused him to make the choice to cheat, his answer both angered and confused fans.

“We had a rough pregnancy, all the way from start to finish,” he began. “Sex during pregnancy, it’s nothing that a man wants to do. … And after PJ got here, postpartum was very real. We cried together, like, every night. That’s not a good enough ‘why,’ but that’s the ‘why.’”

Although he admitted “it was a poor” and “selfish decision,” he also added, “I made a mistake, I cheated. … I’ve done my best to let Porsha know that I love her and I’m remorseful and apologetic. The priority for me is the baby.”

“A mistake, to me, is taking the wrong exit,” Williams countered visibly frustrated. “You don’t make a mistake and set up with someone and cheat. That’s not where he needs to be in order for me to heal and move forward. He needs to be in a place in my eyes where he’s taking full accountability for his actions, period. No matter how it looks and feels. It insults me when he says ‘mistake.’”

She then warned him, “If you’re going to live how you want to live because that’s just what your loins want, we can move on with our coparent life. But if you are really trying to make a commitment over here, that’s what I want to know from your heart.”

As many have pointed out, how would Williams’ behavior after her pregnancy justify her fiancé’s behavior during her pregnancy? From a chronological standpoint that defense literally makes no sense.
