Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans get ready! Dorit Kemsley has been chatting and she's hinting that the Season 14 reunion is going to be absolutely explosive. Like relationship-defining explosive. Especially when it comes to her rollercoaster friendship with Kyle Richards.
Friendship on the Rocks? Dorit Kemsley Says RHOBH Reunion Will "Categorically" Define Her Future with Kyle Richards
Dorit told Interview Magazine that the Season 14 reunion filming was a turning point for her friendship with Kyle. Remember things got frosty between them at the previous reunion for Season 13. But this time it sounds like things went to a whole other level.
"Oh it was nasty" Dorit said about the friendship drama with Kyle. She explained it was "mean and it was really hurtful." This all happened while both Dorit and Kyle were going through separations in their marriages which added even more fuel to the fire.
Dorit feels like Kyle's behavior wasn't what she expected from a true friend. She believes their friendship wasn't as strong as she thought. And according to Dorit the reunion was the moment of truth. "After the reunion there is absolutely no doubt which way we go" she teased. Sounds pretty serious right?
Kyle Richards Knew Reunion Would Be Intense: Ready to Face Dorit Sutton and More!
Kyle herself has admitted that she knew the reunion was going to be a lot. Before filming she told BravoTV.com that she expected to "get into things" with Dorit and also Sutton Stracke. Plus she mentioned she had issues to address with Garcelle Beauvais and Bozoma Saint John too. Basically Kyle was ready for anything and anyone.
However Kyle also said she had a goal for the reunion. She really wanted to "leave there feeling better" about her relationships with the other women. After the reunion wrapped Kyle seemed to think she accomplished that. She said on Amazon Live that she "answered all my questions" and "handled all the things I wanted to discuss" and "left there feeling good about it." But what exactly went down between her and Dorit? We are all going to have to wait and see!
Dorit Kemsley Gets Real About Marriage Separation and Bravo Honesty: "I Had to Live in Truth"
Dorit has been super open this season about her separation from her husband PK. She told Interview Magazine that sharing her truth was essential even if it caused some friction. She explained "You know we were very amicable and friendly and then we filmed. And when the show first aired we’d filmed seven eight months before that so it’s really difficult when you’re in the present moment to think where you were eight months ago right?" Reality TV time warps are real!
She added that PK struggled watching some episodes. She thinks he maybe expected to get more fan support and it caused issues between them. But Dorit feels she had to be honest for the show and for herself. "I think that watching it and seeing some of the audience’s responses he assumed that he would come out victorious" she explained. That didn't seem to happen.
Dorit also addressed the "alcoholic thing" which viewers reacted strongly to. She said it was the first time she spoke publicly about PK's drinking and it was something they discussed beforehand. She asked him what he was comfortable with her sharing since he had been open about his sobriety journey before. It sounds like navigating personal struggles on reality TV is never easy even when everyone is trying to be honest.
Fan Favorite Again? Dorit Kemsley on Audience Reactions and Being "In My Truth"
Dorit acknowledged that fan reactions to her have been different this season. "The audience has never quite responded to me like they did this year" she said. She knows Housewives fans can be fickle loving you one minute and not the next. But Dorit believes that being "true and honest and open" is what matters even if people don't always agree with her.
She feels it's important to share the reality of her life even "the worst of it" because that is what viewers tune in for. Holding back wouldn't be fair to the audience she thinks. And for Dorit being honest is "very liberating." She said "As one of the women who’s signed up to share my life even the worst of it I at least want to be able to be in my truth and that means not just my personal stuff but also my relationships with the ladies." It seems like this season Dorit decided to stop holding back and speak her mind.

You don’t want to leave here and feel like you wished you said something.’ So I said ‘Just put it all out there.’"
