Lisa Vanderpump has defended “good guy” PK Kemsley after his wife filed for divorce.
The ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ star Dorit Kemsley recently filed papers to end her 10-year marriage to the 57-year-old English businessman but ‘Vanderpump Rules’ star Lisa believes the pair had been having issues for a long time.
Speaking on ‘Watch What Happens Live’, Lisa said: “I actually knew that they, kind of, pretty much separated. I don’t think they were being that honest on the show because we have mutual friends. We have mutual friends, and I think he was living in a hotel.
“For her saying he’s a bad father, that’s not OK with me. He’s a good guy.”
Last year on the show, Dorit, 48, claimed the pair had “toxic” screaming matches with each other and it all became too much.
She said: “The progression of mine and PK’s fighting … this is where [it] really became too toxic. We went from just screaming at one another but not using profanity to cursing at one another to actually having digs that were below the belt.”
Dorit cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split, she requested spousal support and asked a judge to award her sole legal and physical custody of their son Jagger, 11, and daughter Phoenix, nine.
The filing came just after PK was spotted in a passionate embrace with former ‘Amazing Race’ contestant, Shana Wall,
Dorit and PK first announced their separation with posts on their Instagram Stories in May 2024.
They wrote: “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. We have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and re-evaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children.”
However, in January, she revealed their relationship had deteriorated and PK had mentioned divorce.
During an episode of ‘Real Housewives’, she told castmate Bozoma "Boz" Saint John: “PK and I, we had a four-hour therapy session on Monday. He went in very much with, like, [a] coming to battle [attitude]. So much so in therapy, he throws out, 'This is why I want to divorce and I don't want to be married to this woman.'"
