NEED TO KNOW
Dorit and Paul “PK” Kemsley are on good terms.
The former couple were spotted out for dinner in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Aug. 12, four months after Dorit, 49, officially filed for divorce, according to a video obtained by TMZ.
A source now tells PEOPLE they are focusing on maintaining a healthy relationship as they navigate the transitionary period of their lives.
“Dorit and PK are still working through the legal side of their separation, but there’s a lot of genuine affection there,” the insider says. “They have a deep history and a shared commitment to raising their kids, and that keeps them connected in a really positive way.”
“Their recent dinner together wasn’t filmed for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills — it was completely off-camera, just the two of them catching up,” the insider reveals. “PK hasn’t filmed with Dorit at all this season.”

The source adds that “neither of them is in a serious relationship right now.”
The source further notes that the 57-year-old’s “brief moment with Shana Wall earlier this year was just lighthearted and not the start of anything romantic” despite photos of the two kissing one day before Dorit’s divorce filing.
A rep for PK declined to comment.
In April, Dorit cited “irreconcilable differences” in her petition to dissolve her 10-year marriage to PK, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE.
She also asked the judge for sole legal and physical custody of their children, son Jagger, 11, and daughter Phoenix, 9, along with spousal support.
In his response, PK pushed back against the reality star’s filing, asking that he be granted joint custody of the two kids. He also waived his right to spousal support and asked the court to terminate Dorit’s own request.

The pair announced their decision to separate a year prior.
They shared the news in a joint statement posted to their respective Instagram accounts at the time.
“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,” it read. “We have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children.”
Dorit and PK’s marriage troubles were also documented on season 14 of RHOBH.
Throughout the season, cameras captured Dorit and PK arguing over a number of issues as viewers saw their relationship become increasingly more contentious.
Earlier this month, Dorit also announced that she would be releasing a memoir titled Unburdened: Moving On, Letting Go & Putting It All on the Table. PEOPLE exclusively revealed that it is set to debut in the Spring of 2026 and will chronicle her life as a mother, entrepreneur and public figure.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills can be streamed on Peacock.
