RHOBH's Dorit Kemsley called out her estranged husband for the statement he sent to the Season 14 reunion.
Dorit Kemsley felt "blindsided" when Andy Cohen read out a statement from her estranged husband, Paul "PK" Kemsley at The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 reunion.
"I had to relive a moment that really hurt me a lot. I was completely blindsided when PK had sent a statement," Dorit said about the intense moment, which took place on Part 1, during an interview with Rollacoaster in April 2025. "No matter what happens with PK and I, he's always been my best friend, my husband, we're family. I never believed that things could ever get to a place where our bond and the foundation would ever be broken to the extent that we could do things to hurt each other that crosses the line. I didn't want to go toe to toe."
Dorit went on to reflect on the moment when she criticized PK's parenting on the show (which he referenced in his statement).
"I know his feelings about what I had said in the moment about him not being a great dad, I not only apologized to him, but I — in my confessional and in [The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills] After Show — immediately took it back and explained that this is after a couple of months of not speaking, I was really worried about the kids," Dorit continued. "I felt very, very bad. It was in a weak, vulnerable moment after a seven page vicious email. You can only take the high road for so long. But that’s the cheap shot of it all because he did that statement for the audience, for the public. I don't like it when people cater to that."
What did PK Kemsley's "blindsiding" statement say?
As Andy said, PK was invited to attend the reunion, but he chose to send a statement instead, which was read out during Part 1.
"I was invited to be part of the Reunion, but declined because I don’t believe engaging with Dorit in this forum would be constructive," PK's statement read. "Dorit has made several mischaracterizations about me, but the one I must address is the claim that I am a bad father. That statement is both heartbreaking and false. It is deeply hurtful to me and more importantly, to our children, who, despite Dorit’s assertion, will inevitably see and hear all of this at a time not of our choosing."
He continued, "Those closest to us know the truth. Many have wanted to speak out, but I have asked them not to because the truth should never need a champion. I refused to stoke a fire I did not ignite. The Dorit I married would never have allowed this, much less caused it. That woman embodied kindness, integrity, and grace. I can only hope this version of Dorit finds her way back to the person she once was."
Are Dorit Kemsley and PK Kemsley divorced?
No, Dorit and PK have not yet finalized their divorce, though Dorit did reportedly file on April 25.
