The Nigerian-born businessman was detained by the U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) earlier this year and was deported after months in ICE detention.
He is now in the United Arab Emirates but made it clear he misses the life he left behind.
He returned to Instagram on Wednesday, June 18, exactly 4 months after his last IG post.
“He is back! My heart’s still full of love for this life – actually, even more now,” he captioned a photo of himself.
In another post shared today, June 19, he wrote: “In the UAE, even the simplest meal is a masterpiece. And with each memory, I ache for the life I left behind just four months ago. Happy Thursday #iamback.”
Simon was locked in a divorce battle with his ex-wife Porsha Williams at the time he was picked up by ICE in February 2025. He had to attend court proceedings remotely.
Last week, Simon Guobadia lost a legal battle against his estranged wife Porsha Williams, just days after being deported from the United States.
According to Us Weekly, the court upheld the validity of the prenup which the couple signed before their November 2022 wedding.
The judge rejected Simon’s attempt to nullify the document, stating he knowingly entered the agreement and had ample time to review its terms, which were clearly meant to prevent “contested and expensive litigation.”
The court enforced the couple’s prenuptial agreement, awarding Porsha $40,000 per month in alimony for the next 14 to 15 months. Simon is also required to cover her legal fees and hand over the Rolls-Royce he gifted her.
Regarding the couple’s $7 million home, which was initially Simon’s premarital property, Porsha has until 2027 to decide whether she wants to remain in the house or sell it. If she chooses to stay, she must refinance the property and buy out Simon’s 50% equity share.
In the meantime, Simon will continue covering the home’s expenses, including mortgage payments.
The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star filed for divorce in February 2024, citing the marriage as “irretrievably broken.”
