Dorit Kemsley, 47, was recently seen filming for the upcoming season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Just days after announcing her separation from husband PK Kemsley, Dorit was photographed attending a party hosted by fellow Bravo star Sutton Stracke. Fans captured a photo of Dorit alongside Kyle Richards on Saturday, May 11. Other RHOBH stars like Erika Jayne and Garcelle Beauvais were also spotted at the event.
Dorit’s public outing occurred shortly after she and PK, 56, announced their separation after nine years of marriage in a joint social media post on May 9.
In their statement, they addressed the speculation surrounding their marriage, acknowledging their struggles in recent years. Despite these challenges, they emphasized their love for each other and their commitment to their two children.
To maintain a positive environment for their children and preserve their friendship, Dorit and PK have decided to take a break to reassess their relationship. They expressed gratitude for the support they have received and asked for understanding as they navigate this journey.

Dorit joined the main cast of RHOBH during season 7 in 2016. Since then, her relationship with PK has been closely scrutinized, especially their marital issues which became a storyline in RHOBH season 13, which ended earlier this year.
Erika, who is 52 years old, hinted at trouble in Dorit and PK's marriage by calling them the next Bravo couple to split during BravoCon in 2022. Despite some tension between Erika and Dorit after the three-day convention, it seems that Erika was simply foreshadowing and not causing any real conflict.
Rumors of a split began circulating about a year later in October 2023, triggered by a report from In Touch claiming that PK was staying in a hotel and was pictured without his wedding ring. Despite this, they dismissed the speculation of a breakup in an official statement during that period.
The premiere of RHOBH season 13 in the same month allowed fans to get a glimpse into the highs and lows of Dorit and PK’s relationship. In one episode, viewers witnessed the couple participating in a therapy session together, where PK made a comment about Dorit's PTSD from a burglary incident in 2021, describing it as "obnoxious."
During the season 13 finale of RHOBH in February, it was disclosed that PK had prolonged a work trip to London for 39 days by that time.
Dorit acknowledged that she and PK were going through a rough patch when filming for RHOBH ended last year. However, she revealed that they were in a much better place and stronger than ever when they filmed the reunion in January.
Dorit responded to a fan's question about her "stronger than ever" comment on social media. She quickly replied, saying, "We were. S—t happens. It’s called life — try it sometime. One day at a time."
Editor's P/S:
Dorit Kemsley's recent separation announcement has raised questions about the stability of her marriage to PK Kemsley. The couple has faced marital issues in the past, which were documented on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." Despite previous denials of a split, the couple's public outing shortly after their announcement suggests a potential reconciliation. However, Dorit's cryptic social media response to a fan's question about their relationship status raises doubts about the true nature of their current situation.
The article also highlights the rumors and speculation surrounding Dorit and PK's marriage. Erika Jayne's prediction of their split at BravoCon 2022 and the subsequent hotel incident in October 2023 fueled the rumors. While the couple initially dismissed these claims, the ongoing drama in their relationship has kept fans engaged and curious about their future. It remains to be seen whether Dorit and PK will be able to overcome their challenges and rekindle their marriage, or if their separation will lead to a permanent divorce.
