Dorit Kemsley and her husband, PK Kemsley, have filed for divorce after nearly one year after announcing that they were taking some time apart.
Dorit filed for the dissolution of her marriage to PK on Friday, April 25, according to legal documents obtained by Us Weekly.
She cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason behind the split. Dorit is also asking for sole legal and physical custody of the former couple’s children, son Jagger, 11, and daughter Phoenix, 9. In addition, Dorit is requesting spousal support.
The court filing comes one day after PK was photographed kissing The Amazing Race alum Shana Wall outside Cipriani’s in Beverly Hills, California.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars confirmed in May 2024 that they had separated after previously denying rumors of a split.
“We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage. We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together,” they wrote via Instagram at the time. “To safeguard our deep friendship and maintain a harmonious environment for our children we have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children. We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey.”
All the Signs That ‘RHOBH’ Stars Dorit and PK Kemsley Were Headed for a Split
Dorit and PK met in 2011 and tied the knot in March 2015. During their relationship, they welcomed their two children, Jagger and Phoenix, in February 2014 and February 2016, respectively.
Split speculation began in October 2022 when Erika Jayne predicted that Dorit and PK would be the next Bravo couple to call it quits. However, both denied the allegation, which Erika later claimed was a joke.
“Misery loves company. What else can [I] say 
. Our friends, those that truly know us, know what we have and who we are,” Dorit responded in an Instagram comment at the time.
PK, for his part, questioned Erika’s knowledge on the matter. “Erika thought her husband was innocent,” he wrote via Instagram, referring to her ex Tom Girardi’s embezzlement lawsuit. “She thought the ankle is more important than the brain. She thought she should keep the earrings. Now she thinks Dorit and I are next to split up. Here’s a quick bit of management advice: Stop thinking!”
RHOBH’s Dorit and PK Kemsley’s Relationship Timeline
In October 2023, the duo once again denied that their marriage was over after PK was spotted without his wedding ring amid reports that he was living in a hotel.
“We remain committed to working through these issues as a united couple for our family,” they said in a joint statement. “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.”
Still, multiple sources confirmed to Us Weekly at the time that PK was living separately from Dorit as they attempted to save their marriage. “They both agree it’s the right thing to do,” an insider said. “It’s been a rough period for them. They want to stay on amicable terms whether they stay together or not.”
Dorit, meanwhile, assured Us in November 2023 that she and PK remained “hopeful” about their future together, adding that they were “working on the marriage.”
