Dorit Kemsley is opening up about her future on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and making it clear that if Bravo calls, she is ready.
The RHOBH star recently spoke with Entertainment Tonight about whether she would return for Season 16 as questions continue to swirl about the Beverly Hills cast. Dorit, who has been front and center this past season amid her separation from PK Kemsley and her fallout with Kyle Richards, confirmed she would say yes if her contract is renewed.
“I’d say, ‘I’ll be there,’” Dorit said when asked how she would respond to being asked back for another season.
Dorit’s future on RHOBH has been a major topic of conversation, especially after a season where her personal life became one of the show’s biggest storylines. Fans watched Dorit navigate the breakdown of her marriage to PK, tension within her friendships, and an emotional reunion where she later admitted she may not have shown up as her best self.
Despite speculation about whether she needs the show financially, Dorit said she believes she would be okay even if RHOBH did not continue for her.
When asked if she is financially dependent on the Bravo series, Dorit said she would like to think she would be fine without it saying, “And thank God a million times I have the ability to work. Listen, I can’t be driven by fear. Period. I believe in myself, even separated. I went to work. It was like, ‘Okay, I need to go to work. I need to support these kids,’ and that’s what I did. I think if you believe in yourself and you’re not governed by fear, you can do anything.”
The RHOBH star also reflected on her behavior at the reunion, admitting she was in a difficult place while filming it.
After confessing that she was “stubborn” during the reunion, Dorit confirmed that she does have regrets, “I think I was in a such a dark place, and, you know, I was hurt and frustrated and aggressive, and, you know, it was hard to watch back because it’s not who I am.”
Dorit’s reunion performance sparked plenty of debate among fans, especially as she found herself at odds with several of the women. Her ongoing issues with Kyle Richards were a major focus, as the two longtime friends struggled to repair their fractured relationship.
Still, Dorit appears to be taking accountability for how she came across, while also explaining that she was dealing with a lot emotionally behind the scenes.
For now, Dorit says she believes in herself enough to survive with or without the show. But if Season 16 comes calling, she plans to answer.
