RHOBH’s Dorit Kemsley Files for Divorce From Husband PK Kemsley After Shana Wall Makeout
Dorit Kemsley is moving on with her life amid her divorce.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star—who officially filed to end her 10-year marriage to estranged husband Paul "PK" Kemsley on April 25—was spotted out for the first time one day after her divorce filing.
The somber 48-year-old went makeup-free and was noticeably not wearing her wedding ring as she dropped off their kids Jagger, 11, and Phoenix, 9, at a dance studio in Los Angeles on April 26. The usually super-glam star was uncharacteristically casual in plain black leggings and a black sweater with sandals and her blond hair in a simple ponytail for the family outing.
The day prior, E! News confirmed that the Beverly Beach founder filed for divorce nearly a year after she and the 57-year-old first announced they had separated.
"We have had our struggles over the past few years," the exes announced last May in a joint Instagram statement, "and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together."
"To safeguard our deep friendship and maintain a harmonious environment for our children," they added, "we have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children."
The timing of Dorit's filing last week came one day after PK was photographed making out with a new woman.

PK and Amazing Race season 12 alum Shana Wall enjoyed a romantic, PDA-filled date night at Cipriani's in Beverly Hills April 24.
The duo appeared very touchy-feely as Shana wrapped her arms around the businessman as they exited the restaurant. The lovebirds even took a pause to stare into each other's eyes and shared kisses before walking away from the eatery holding hands.
While neither Dorit nor PK have spoken out publicly since her divorce filing, Dorit hinted earlier this month that there was no hope of a reconciliation in their future.

"As of a week ago, I've chosen not to have much of a relationship with him," the reality star revealed during RHOBH's season 14 reunion. "I said, 'The way you're making me feel in this moment, I don't think I can have a relationship with you, even a friendship.' That was less than a week ago, and I stand by it."
"I'm hurt, I'm sad," Dorit added. "I think I'm realizing more and more each day that what I really believed was going to be my future may not be and I think that realization is really been hard."

159-162. The Real Housewives of D.C.
Bravo's ill-fated attempt at highlighting our nation's capital brought together four women so forgettable you'd be forgiven for erasing them from your memory—though their names are Mary Amons, Lynda Erkiletian, Cat Ommanney and Stacie Scott Turner—and one so desperate for fame that she gate-crashed a party at the White House. More on her later.

Who?

157. Tammy Knickerbocker, The Real Housewives of Orange County
Vaguely familiar, but...

156. DeShawn Snow, The Real Housewives of Atlanta
Once upon a time, DeShawn starred on the same TV show as NeNe Leakes. Surprising, we know.

155. Elizabeth Lyn Vargas, The Real Housewives of Orange County
This one-season Housewife brought nothing to the Orange County table.
Chad Kirkland/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
154. Jennie Nguyen, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City
Utah's newest season two Housewife went out with a bang (and not in a good way). In January 2022, Jennie was fired after "offensive" and racially insensitive old Facebook posts resurfaced online. Jennie later apologized but the damage was done.

153. Quinn Fry, The Real Housewives of Orange County
Her defining trait was "cougar."
Tommy Garcia/Bravo
152. Jen Armstrong, The Real Housewives of Orange County
The Orange County doctor was never a source of drama during season 16 and her brief marriage troubles with eternally shirtless husband Ryne (or Ryan?) were less than riveting. However, we will never forget Dr. Jen getting absolutely wasted on wine during the Dubrows' insanely awkward—yet wildly entertaining—dinner party.
Bravo
151: Annemarie Wiley, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
The nurse anesthetist's flop first season can be summed up in one cringe-worthy word we hope we never hear again: Esophagus-gate.
Tommy Garcia/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
150. Katie Rost, The Real Housewives of Potomac
Katie loved to talk about her charity work, but...didn't do much else on screen. She was one and done, only to come back and not contribute much as a friend. Leaving the cast trip early? A Housewives no-no.

149. Charrisse Jackson Jordan, The Real Housewives of Potomac
Her marriage problems were on full display the two seasons she was a full-time Housewife...that and her champagne room are the two memorable things about Charrisse.

148. Shamari DeVoe, The Real Housewives of Atlanta
A one-and-done Housewife, Shamari was at least fun?
Tommy Garcia/Bravo
147. Peggy Sulahian, The Real Housewives of Orange County
While it was nice to see some diversity in the lily-white O.C., Peggy ultimately proved to be a frustrating presence in season 12. The fights she chose to pick were bizarre, and often involving someone using a word she simply didn't understand, and her decision to simply hide out in her room for an entire day during the trip to Iceland proved that she wasn't really cut out for this Real Housewives life.
Jai Lennard/Bravo
146. Nneka Ihim, The Real Housewives of Potomac
Instead of bonding with fellow Nigerian costar Wendy Osefo during season eight, Nneka's first season storyline centered entirely around her allegedly accusing Wendy's mom of being a witch (yes, seriously). We wish we could have seen the two bond over their shared culture rather than fighting with no resolve.

145. Noella Bergener, The Real Housewives of Orange County
Noella spun through season 16 like a tornado of frantic energy. While her personal struggles were somewhat compelling (her husband James up and left the country and asked for a divorce right before filming started), it was her constant drama with queen bee Heather Dubrow that helped her not land completely at the bottom of the list. Maybe with more time and another season, we'll warm up to Mrs. Bergener.
Tommy Garcia/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
144. Siggy Flicker, The Real Housewives of New Jersey
From peacekeeper in her first season to unrelenting complaints about a thrown cake and unfounded claims of anti-Semitism in her second (and last) season, we're not sure we've ever seen a quicker Real Housewives fall from grace than this one.

143. Amber Marchese, RHONJ
Everything Amber and her husband Jim did seemed to reek of desperation. Plus, he was involved in more of the drama than she was. Not a good look.

142. Karent Sierra, The Real Housewives of Miami
All we remember about Karent is that she was a dentist and none of her co-stars seemed to like her at all. Next!

141. Cristy Rice,The Real Housewives of Miami
This was a real person with a show on Bravo. We promise.
Charles Sykes/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
140. Jules Wainstein, The Real Housewives of New York City
As one of RHONY's more recent one-and-dones, Jules' tenure was too brief to rank any higher. However, she sure did deliver her fair share of drama.

138-139. Teresa Aprea and Nicole Napolitano, RHONJ
So unnecessary they couldn't even get individual taglines.
Chris Haston/Bravo
137. Nina Ali, The Real Housewives of Dubai
Much like co-star Sara Al Madani, Nina exemplified a multidimensional, successful Arab woman who is blending modern life with centuries-old cultural traditions. She avoided most of the season one drama and was sometimes overshadowed by her co-stars' bigger, louder personalities.
Bravo
136. Taleen Marie, The Real Housewives of Dubai
Taleen was a nice addition to RHODubai's sophomore season, but we only have one season to judge her on.
Tommy Garcia/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
135. Eva Marcille, RHOA
The America's Next Top Model veteran picked up a peach for seasons 11 and 12, but never really made an impression in the world of RHOA, aside from being pregnant for what felt like her entire tenure. Points for that epic read of Marlo Hampton while in Tokyo, though.
Bravo
134. Katie Ginella, The Real Housewives of Orange County
Per usual, we typically need to see more than one season to place a first-time Housewife higher on our list. But Katie came in swinging during RHOC's 18th season, immediately going up against veteran Housewife Heather Dubrow. It takes a brave woman to call B.S. on Ms. Fancypants.
Rich Polk/Bravo
133. Sara Al Madani, The Real Housewives of Dubai
Sara's positive, enlightened outlook on life was certainly pleasant, but didn't provide for much drama (besides that one time she offered co-star Caroline Brooks some not-so-well received parenting advice). However, the tech entrepreneur shattered stereotypes of what it means to be a modern Muslim woman in the Middle East and for that we applaud her.
Andrew Eccles/Bravo
131-132. Rachel Fuda & Danielle Cabral, The Real Housewives of New Jersey
RHONJ's season 13 newbies certainly fit the mold of your typical Garden State Housewife and quickly found themselves in a season-long fight over literally nothing that Andy Cohen deemed pointless at the reunion. The former friends unfortunately didn't bring much more substance during season 14.
Tommy Garcia/Peacock
130. Larsa Pippen, The Real Housewives of Miami
Larsa didn't make a big impression on season one before leaving the series. When Peacock revived RHOM for season four in 2021, her whole storyline was about being the ex-BFF of Kim Kardashian. (and selling sexy feet pics on OnlyFans...)
Jeff Daly/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
129. Ana Quincoces, The Real Housewives of Miami
Ana followed up her one season as a Bravolebrity by competing on season 12 of Next Food Network Star in 2016. She didn't make it there, either.
Rodolfo Martinez/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank
128. Joyce Giraud de Ohoven, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Unfortunately, she was nothing more than a punching bag for Brandi Glanville. Plus, her tagline celebrating the icky notion that you can never be too skinny was gross.
