RHOBH Stars Dorit and PK’s Divorce: Updates Amid Split
The end of an era. Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Dorit Kemsley and Paul “PK” Kemsley have officially called it quits. After years of sharing their ups and downs with Bravo fans, the longtime couple decided to part ways. Life & Style has the latest on Dorit and PK’s divorce and where they stand today.
Why Did ‘RHOBH’ Stars Dorit and PK Split?
During The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 14, Dorit opened up about her marriage to her costars Erika Jayne and Kathy Hilton. The mom of two claimed that PK “was pouring alcohol on his [problems]” and said that their relationship was “very, very, very toxic.”
“PK’s always been a drinker, but over the years, it’s gotten progressively worse,” Dorit explained during a one-on-one interview with producers. “Little fights would turn into blowups. We would be in the gutter after a fight, screaming at one another. I don’t want that toxic energy around small children.”
Erika noticed that Dorit’s stance about her marriage had changed since the season 13 reunion when she said that her and PK’s relationship was “better than ever,” and Erika was curious about what led to the change.
“It’s not one thing,” Dorit replied. “You know, there’s no catastrophic event. No one cheated on anyone. A week ago, there was a moment, and it was over nothing, and one thing led to another and we sat down like two very mature adults who love and care about one another and we mutually decided that taking some space and separating is the best thing for us. We’re taking it day by day, but we are separated. There’s no time on it, but there’s work to do.”
When Did ‘RHOBH’ Stars Dorit and PK File for Divorce?
PK and Dorit announced they were separating in May 2024.
“We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together,” they wrote in a joint statement via Instagram Stories at the time. “We have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children.”
Less than a year later, Dorit officially filed for divorce on April 25, 2025, according to Page Six. The Beverly Beach founder cited “irreconcilable differences” and requested spousal support, along with asking for PK to pay her legal fees.
Dorit’s filing came just hours after photos surfaced of PK kissing former Amazing Race star Shana Wall. While neither party has made an official statement regarding their split, PK reportedly posted a snarky message on social media before quickly deleting it.
“No one plays the victim better than the one who caused the damage,” the British businessman wrote via his Instagram Stories on April 25, 2025, before scrubbing the remark, per Page Six.
RHOBH’s Dorit and PK Were Together for Over a Decade Before Their Split
PK and Dorit met through mutual friends in 2011 and began dating shortly thereafter. She previously revealed that she actually turned down PK’s request for a first date because she was headed to Hong Kong for work. However, he convinced her to postpone her flight.
“We went out and have been inseparable from that first night,” Dorit said in an interview with Grace Ormonde Wedding Style published March 2015.
By 2014, they had welcomed their first child, son Jagger, and in May 2015, they tied the knot with a glamorous wedding held in New York City’s famous Rainbow Room.
The former couple later welcomed their daughter, Phoenix, in 2016.
