Paul “PK” Kemsley has accused his estranged wife, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Dorit Kemsley, of spending $1 million on luxury brands as their home inched toward financial despair, according to a new report.
What’s more, he is begging a judge to force a sale of their home before it’s past the point of no return.
According to TMZ, who obtained court documents, PK alleges his team looked into Dorit’s spending and found she doled out over $1 million on premium goods in the past year alone. This included approximately $995,000 on luxury handbags, accessories, and designer clothing.
The intel broke down where her money was spent, noting she dropped around $69,000 at Louis Vuitton, $69,000 at Chanel, and $38,000 at Hermès. Dorit also allegedly spent cash at Net-A-Porter, FWRD, and Moda Operandi.
While Dorit was on her alleged spending sprees, PK claims she didn’t make any mortgage payments toward their home, regardless of her being the one residing in it and using it. He also notes he covered around 90% of his family’s expenses, including household costs, mortgages, and most of the financial responsibilities pertaining to their children.
The property that PK is asking the judge to force a sale of was purchased by him and Dorit in 2019. It has now accrued more than $6 million in mortgage debt. Notices of default have been recorded on the property, and foreclosure proceedings on the home could begin at any point.
In the court docs, PK states he spent more than a year trying to avoid having to get to this point, showing financial records, months of emails and lender communications, and forensic accounting. He alleges these items show how he kept trying to resolve their financial situation with their home and move toward selling it.
He also claims he kept pointing out that the home could be going toward foreclosure unless his side and Dorit’s side worked with their lenders and moved toward a sale, but this did not reach any positive resolution.
The filing also detailed that PK proposed selling their house and relocating his children and Dorit to his nearby home temporarily, during which time he would have covered expenses, but that notion was rejected.
Because of all that’s allegedly gone on, PK asked the court to step in and force them to sell their home, hopefully preventing a total loss of equity if a foreclosure were to move forward.
To date, Dorit has yet to comment on the latest development and allegations. At the RHOBH reunion, whose final part airs tonight, Dorit’s finances and the conversations about them that Kyle Richards had during the season were brought up. “These are mutual conversations!” Kyle insisted.
“Kyle, do me a favor: Let’s stick with one thing right now,” Dorit said. “I’m making one point. I spent $4,000 in one of Rachel’s friends’ shops that they cleared for us to shop. Nobody bought anything but me. I didn’t want us to go into that shop and not buy anything. They had cute things. I can afford to spend $4,000. I’m very lucky to.”
As the conversation progressed, Kyle ended up claiming she was not in the same “financial position” as Dorit. “How do you know my financial position?” Dorit inquired.
“Well, the house is being foreclosed on,” Erika Jayne added.
Dorit kept going at Kyle, asking her if she knew that because Mauricio Umansky, Kyle’s estranged husband, was speaking to PK.
“No,” Kyle retorted, insisting she knows “because it was in the news.”
