'RHOBH’ star Dorit Kemsley struggles as separation from Paul 'PK' Kemsley takes its toll
Things have been difficult for Dorit Kemsley since her separation from Paul 'PK' Kemsley. While Dorit continues to project her “unstoppable” era on the new season of 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills', it’s clear she’s still hurting. Despite attempts to focus on herself, she often brings up PK, even when he’s not the topic of conversation, highlighting that she’s still grappling with their marriage issues, particularly his struggles with alcoholism.
Her constant mention of their separation suggests that Dorit isn’t fully over him. Additionally, her noticeable weight loss raises concerns about her physical health, potentially reflecting the emotional toll of the divorce. After spending years hoping PK would get sober, Dorit’s shock at his departure seems to have left her emotionally drained. Some speculate she might be building a public case for future custody battles, but there’s no denying she’s going through a difficult time and coping with deep trauma.
