As for where Kyle and Dorit are today in their relationship, the mom of four confirmed that the two "worked through some things."

"I know it’s gonna take time, obviously, to get back to where we were," she added.

Following filming for Season 13, Dorit and PK announced their separation in a joint Instagram statement shared in May 2024.

"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,” she said on Instagram.

"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," Dorit concluded in her statement, which PK also shared on his Instagram page. "We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey. With love, Dorit and PK."

The couple, who shares son Jagger and daughter Phoenix Kemsley together, wed in March 2015. 

Dorit has yet to discuss RHOBH Season 14, but her castmates have teased that she's in a different place on the upcoming season.
