In November 2024, The Sun reported that a notice of default was filed against Dorit and PK’s 7,100-square-feet Encino, CA estate on October 16, 2024. Records state that the home had four or more missed payments and was in the process of pre-foreclosure. They can potentially save their home if they can pay off any missed payments in a lump sum.
The same house was the target of a 2018 robbery that was featured in an episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Dorit was in the house with her two children Jagger and Phoenix when the burglars raided her house. “Both suspects threatened to kill her as she pleaded for her life and the lives of her young children,” an LAPD statement read. “In fear for her safety, the victim complied with the suspects demands and directed them to valuables. The suspects took high-end handbags, jewelry, and watches.” The robbers reportedly stole items worth up to $1 million.
In November 2023, The Sun also reported that Dorit and her husband did not pay their taxes to the California IRS. A tax lien that was filed in June 2021 shows that she has an outstanding balance of $90,269 due to the IRS, while the English businessman owes a combined total of $986,887 in taxes. It comes a year after PK paid off his $2 million gambling debt from the Bellagio Resort and Casino.
Do Dorit & PK Kemsley have a prenup?
Dorit revealed that she did not sign a prenup with PK at the time of their marriage. She noted on Watch What Happens, “I met my husband when he was bankrupt.”
The two announced their separation in a joint Instagram post. “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,” they wrote in a joint Instagram upload, referring to son Jagger, 10, and daughter Phoenix, 8. “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.”
