On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 12, Dorit and PK Kemsley fell from grace for various reasons. Questions were already surrounding Dorit and PK’s alleged home invasion, which was shared at the start of the season. Later episodes drew backlash after PK and Dorit found it funny when Erika Jayne mistreated two of Garcelle Beauvais’s sons. Throughout the season, Dorit and PK’s portrayal led to the desire for their removal. However, it’s likely Dorit will return for RHOBH season 13.
Dorit has consistently drawn criticism for being long-winded and adding little to no spark to the show’s central storylines. Season 11 saw Dorit engage in a mini-feud with Garcelle, which carried over into the reunion. While remained cordial in most of season 12, later episodes proved that Dorit had a strange way of showing her appreciation for Garcelle. Dorit stayed silent while watching Erika flirt with Garcelle’s eldest son and cuss at her 14-year-old son. After the encounters, Dorit was filmed laughing about the situation with Kyle Richards and their husbands.
Dorit & PK Have Been Under Fire Since RHOBH’s Season 7 “Panty Gate”
Both couples have been under fire since the episode aired for making it clear that they got a kick from Erika for misbehaving at Garcelle’s birthday party. On Twitter, Queens of Bravo posted a still photo from the episode, highlighting Dorit’s facial expression when Erika brought up PK’s old “panty gate” scandal from season 7. “Dorit was positively fuming when Erika brought up PK & Pantygate again,” the page wrote, adding, “She wasn’t ready to talk about the husband.” During the scandal, PK faced criticism for looking up Erika’s dress on a day when she wore no undergarments.
After Erika referenced the scandal in season 12, it became clear Dorit was a hypocrite for not wanting to talk about her husband but sitting idly by while Garcelle’s two sons had to deal with Erika’s drunken antics. It’s one of the many blowbacks the Kemsleys face as a couple, as there are continued questions regarding their home invasion. With Dorit constantly facing criticism for her boring storylines and contributions, there is growing speculation that she might have staged the attack for entertainment.
Ultimately, PK’s joke about Erika enjoying a “blowout” with Garcelle’s sons Oliver and Jax raised eyebrows. After flirting with Oliver, who is married, and cussing at one of Garcelle’s twin sons, PK thought that Erika was entitled to the “blowout.” The cold and disturbing remark seemingly reflects PK’s brand, as he is perceived as one of the naughtier husbands on the show. However, the Kemsleys’ endless banter and inappropriate responses on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills have grown tiring. If Dorit is demoted next season, it likely won’t be met with too much disapproval.
