Dorit Kemsley isn’t sugarcoating anything when it comes to her split from Paul “PK” Kemsley — especially where money is concerned.

On the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Dorit opened up about just how chaotic life has become since separating from her husband, revealing that financial responsibilities she never handled before are now being dropped on her without warning.
During a visit from her parents, who flew in from Florida in Season 15, Episode 2, Dorit admitted that PK used to manage everything behind the scenes — until he didn’t.
“PK used to handle everything. And now, it’s like he’s dumped a lot of things in my lap, without any notice.”
In a confessional, Dorit clarified that she wasn’t talking about small expenses, but major financial obligations she suddenly found herself responsible for.

“I’ve not had a conversation with PK to learn what he’s expecting me to pay or what he’s paying,” Dorit explained. “I just find out from the business manager if he decides he’s no longer paying something. It lands right in my lap. I don’t know what’s coming, when it’s coming.”
And according to Dorit, there’s no financial support coming from PK at all.
“PK doesn’t give me any money. … He expects me to pay the bills. And he believes he’s doing more than enough. I don’t even know what he’s doing.”
As if that wasn’t overwhelming enough, Dorit shared that she’s also had to cover the costs of hiring a new business manager and a divorce attorney — all while trying to keep life stable for her kids. Her parents, who admitted they were “worried” about her, listened as Dorit explained the emotional toll it’s taken.
“So, it’s like, to have to make all of those changes and do all of those things like that when you are in fight or flight, while trying to be a mom and parent, how you worry about me, imagine it’s 100 times more how I worry for my kids,” she shared.
Money wasn’t the only issue that surfaced during the Dec. 11 episode. Dorit also revealed ongoing tension with PK over coparenting — particularly when it came to their children, Jagger, 11, and Phoenix, 9.
When Kyle Richards asked if Dorit had gone on any dates, Dorit snapped back, “My husband is too busy torturing me,” before explaining a dispute over the kids visiting her parents in Florida.
According to Dorit, the trip had already been planned. But after PK returned from a weeks-long trip to Europe, she received a legal letter.
“[I received] a letter from a lawyer saying that he’s gonna block it.”
She then shared what happened next.
“He called up, he spoke to Phoenix, and he said, ‘OK, well if they’re going, then Daddy’s going to come to Florida. And we’ll stay in a hotel, and you’ll be with me.’”
The situation clearly took a toll on their kids — especially Jagger.
Dorit tearfully described the moment, calling it “heartbreaking,” and revealed that her son “has been walking around like he’s got the weight of the world.” She said that within “five minutes” of her parents arriving in Beverly Hills, he finally seemed like himself again.
“Do you know what that’s like for me?” she asked Kyle, who hugged her. “And going to sleep every night thinking, my god, how they’re gonna be affected.”
Speaking directly to a producer, Dorit admitted this was the first time she truly saw how deeply the divorce was impacting her children.
“My kids, they needed love and support and just to be around family. This is the first time, the first time I’m seeing the impact of my and PK’s divorce, and it’s ripping my heart out of my chest. It just feels like whatever I’m doing, it’s not enough.”
Things escalated further when Kyle suggested Dorit meet PK “in the middle” and allow him to join the kids on the Florida trip. Dorit didn’t agree — and she didn’t hold back.
“He’s doing it to hurt me,” she insisted.
Kyle pushed back, responding, “Maybe he is, maybe he’s not.”
That didn’t sit well with Dorit, who later addressed the moment in a confessional.
“Really? You can actually have the audacity to say, ‘Well, maybe and maybe not?’” Dorit remarked. “Do you know how to show up 100 percent ever? I’m broken. What more proof do you need? You have known me almost 10 years. How many times have you seen me this way?”
