Dorit Kemsley, star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, recently announced that she and her husband
Paul “PK” Kemsley, have decided to separate after nine years of marriage.
In an Instagram post on May 9, Dorit revealed that they have been through struggles in their relationship in recent years
But they continue to work through them because they love each other and have two amazing children together: Jagger, 10, and Phoenix, 8.
The decision to separate was not an easy one, but Dorit and PK have chosen to prioritize their children and maintain a harmonious environment for them. They both value their deep friendship and are committed to doing the necessary work to reevaluate their relationship during this time apart. Dorit expressed her gratitude for the love and support they have received from their fans as they navigate this journey.
The couple’s separation comes after a season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills where Dorit was very open about the issues in her marriage, including PK’s frequent travels for work. However, before the latest season, Dorit had shut down divorce rumors, emphasizing their commitment to working on their marriage and making positive changes. The couple had already overcome challenges, but Dorit admitted feeling disconnected from PK after a traumatic home invasion while he was away.
Dorit and PK’s decision to separate is not uncommon in the world of celebrities. Many other famous couples have also announced their splits recently. Here are a few examples:
- Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist: The Golden Bachelor couple divorced after three months of marriage.
- Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott: The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum officially filed for divorce after nearly 18 years of marriage.

- Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright: The Vanderpump Rules alums announced their separation after four years of marriage.
- Porsha Williams and Simon Guobadia: The Real Housewives of Atlanta star filed for divorce from her husband after only 15 months of marriage.
These celebrity breakups serve as a reminder that even famous couples face challenges in their relationships. However, it’s important to remember that everyone’s journey is unique, and decisions about love and marriage should be made based on what is best for the individuals involved.
