BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: The prolonged speculation about 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' stars Dorit Kemsley and husband Paul "PK" Kemsley's divorce has raised eyebrows online, with many suggesting it's orchestrated for the show.

Internet users have accused them of seeking publicity, pointing out the suspicious timing of their marital issues aligning with Kyle Richards.

Along with it, the couple faces accusations of selling multiple stories simultaneously, contributing to the perception that their divorce news might be strategically entwined with their reality TV presence.

The online community didn't hold back in calling out Dorit and PK for their perceived behavior, expressing skepticism and criticism.

Users voiced their opinions, highlighting the couple's actions and questioning the authenticity of their publicized marital challenges.

"They’re probably doing what Kyle and Mauricio did. “Leak” a story so they can make a weird ambiguous denial. Then repeat it and confirm it and say they never denied it," said one user on Reddit

"They gotta figure out a way to sell multiple stories of the same bs," mentioned one user. 

"Oh she may be trying to stretch it to stay on the show. Geez. Let the mouse go," mentioned another user. 

"The fact that Erika was right, Dorit should’ve milked that feud a little longer," wrote one. 

"Girl needed a storyline I guess," wrote another.

How did ‘RHOBH’ star Dorit Kemsley and Paul Kemsley meet?

In 2011, Dorit and PK resided in NYC, where their paths reportedly crossed at a restaurant during a gathering with mutual friends.

Despite PK's immediate interest and invitation, Dorit initially declined.

In a 2015 interview with Wedding Style Magazine, Dorit revealed the turning point in her decision.

The nine-year age gap between them might have presented differing life paths, despite not being a substantial age difference.

At that time, Dorit, a mother of two, was an emerging fashion designer who had recently launched her swimwear company, Doirt.

‘RHOBH’ star Dorit Kemsley says she’s ‘committed’ to their marriage

Following the challenges their relationship is facing in the recent times, both Dorit and PK released a joint statement via PEOPLE.

It read, "We remain committed to working through these issues as a united couple for our family,” the pair wrote, “We have not separated nor are we planning to do so.

“Rather, we are focused on healing, making changes and doing the things that many couples have to do at some point in their marriage,” they continued.

How much debt is ‘RHOBH’ star Dorit Kemsley in?

Currently, Dorit faces an unresolved IRS balance of $90,269, a result of a tax lien filed in June 2021.

Despite existing financial challenges, this didn't deter her from undergoing facial procedures, leaving an unpaid bill for after-care nursing services.

On the other hand, PK is grappling with substantial financial concerns, owing $986,887 in taxes.

The couple, Dorit, 47, and PK Kemsley, continues to navigate money troubles with outstanding taxes owed to both the state of California and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
