Dorit Kemsley is back in front of the camera for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after announcing her separation from husband Paul ‘PK’ Kemsley. She was spotted filming at a party hosted by fellow RHOBH star Sutton Stracke, mingling with co-stars Kyle Richards, Kathy Hilton, Garcelle Beauvais, and others. Dorit donned an elaborate wide-brim hat and curve-clinging dress for the festivities, despite facing Bravo’s threat to cut her back to three episodes if she didn’t admit that PK had moved out and is staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
In a statement shared on Instagram, Dorit announced her separation from PK, citing struggles in their marriage over the past few years. Despite claiming they were ‘better than ever’ on the season 13 reunion episode, the couple made the mutual decision to take some time apart to reevaluate their relationship while prioritizing their children. The news of their separation came as a surprise to fans, with Dorit responding to comments questioning the strength of their relationship by acknowledging that “s**t happens” and called it a part of life.
Kyle Richards was also seen filming season 14 of RHOBH at Sutton Stracke’s party, showcasing a racy party look on Instagram. The party had a surreal animal theme, with Richards donning a plunging black dress and floral-adorned antlers. Producers reportedly gave Richards an ultimatum to open up about her relationship with country singer Morgan Wade on the show, following her split from Mauricio Umansky. After a ‘very challenging’ season 13, Richards had initially expressed uncertainty about returning to the show.
Crystal Kung Minkoff, who had been part of the RHOBH cast for three seasons, was reportedly not asked to return for season 14. The decision was based on the belief that she had done all she could on the show and no longer had much to add to the drama. Minkoff reportedly wanted to leave the show to focus on her family away from the cameras due to the constant fighting and hashing things out. AnneMarie Wiley was also not asked back after one season, expressing disappointment that viewers never got to see the real her or glimpse her unique story.
Overall, the upcoming season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills promises to bring drama and intrigue as the cast members navigate personal challenges and relationships. Dorit Kemsley’s separation from her husband, Kyle Richards’ issues with opening up about her relationship, and the departure of Crystal Kung Minkoff and AnneMarie Wiley signal potential shakeups in the dynamics of the show. Fans can anticipate a season filled with emotional moments, revelations, and perhaps some unexpected twists as the housewives’ stories unfold on-screen.
