Are Dorit Kemsley and PK faking their divorce storyline on this season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills? A former producer for The Real Housewives of Atlanta certainly thinks so.
A former RHOA producer claims Dorit Kemsley is faking her storyline
Carlos King, a former producer on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, spoke about Dorit Kemsley's current RHOBH storyline as far as her separation from her husband, Paul "PK" Kemsley, and his alleged alcoholism.
On his podcast, Reality With the King, he shared that he thinks that Dorit has made the storyline up in order to center herself in the current season for money -- plus, he thinks that she could leverage her former friendship with Kyle Richards in order to further herself in later episodes.
According to Carlos, Dorit and PK are allegedly "fooling" the audience with their divorce storyline and PK's alleged alcoholism and he says that in order to sell their fake story and make it seem realistic, Dorit Kemsley has been telling "everybody, including the post office guy, the milkman, and her gardener" about the fact that her ex-husband, PK, is an alcholic.
"She has to make sure she is the marquee name of the show so that they can get money," he said on the podcast and said that the fact that Kyle questioned her behavior during the season 14 premiere is proof that this is all a facade put on by the the housewife.
If what Carlos King is alleging is true, it would explain why, despite being separated, Dorit Kemsley says that she and PK aren't discussing getting divorced -- but since Kyle Richards has also been dragging her feet on divorcing Mauricio Umansky, it might just be that they're truly having problems and trying to work things out.
The producer also claimed that Dorit knows some of her former friend's secrets and that she might spill some information about Kyle to the cameras later on in the season, though the former RHOA producer didn't say what that information could be.
Jeff Lewis claims he knows what lead to Dorit and PK's split
While a guest on Bachelor alum Nick Viall's podcast, The Viall Files, Jeff Lewis shared that he's "team PK" in his split from Dorit and said that he's on Paul Kemsley's side in all of this because he has "insider information" that means he knows more than the average Real Housewives watcher about what's going on in their marriage.
According to Jeff Lewis, he thinks that being one of the diamond holders on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills changed Dorit Kemsley and in PK's eyes, Jeff Lewis believes that it took priority over their marriage.
He shared on the podcast that he disagrees with Dorit's claim that it's all about PK's drinking, saying, "I really don’t know the status of his drinking, but I will say I did hear that he felt like she has changed since the show and that the show has become a major priority, and I think over -- he felt, and I’m not speaking for him -- over his marriage and his family."
Jeff Lewis went on to allege that he's never seen Dorit Kemsley spending much time with the children she shares with PK, but says that maybe she's a good mom "behind closed doors" and that what he's witnessed means nothing.
