Dorit Kemsley addressed her potential return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills during an interview last week.

As she also confirmed whether she needed the series financially, reflected on her “aggressive” behavior at the season 15 reunion, and revealed if she had regrets, Dorit, 49, reacted to the suggestion that she expected Paul “PK” Kemsley, 58, to pay for her lifestyle, admitted to spending a lot on designer items, and spoke of the idea of downsizing.

“I’d say, ‘I’ll be there,’” Dorit confirmed to Entertainment Tonight after being asked how she’d react to her RHOBH contract being renewed for season 16.

As for whether she was financially dependent on the show, Dorit said she’d “like to think” she would be fine without it.

“And thank God a million times I have the ability to work,” she shared. “Listen, I can’t be driven by fear. Period. I believe in myself, even separated. I went to work. It was like, ‘Okay, I need to go to work. I need to support these kids,’ and that’s what I did. I think if you believe in yourself and you’re not governed by fear, you can do anything.”

After confessing to being “stubborn” at the reunion, Dorit confirmed she had regrets.

“I think I was in a such a dark place, and, you know, I was hurt and frustrated and aggressive, and, you know, it was hard to watch back because it’s not who I am,” she explained.

Then, after being asked if she wanted PK to pay for her lifestyle, Dorit said, “That’s definitely not the truth.”

“I work and everything that I buy, everything I spend is money that I’ve earned,” she declared, admitting that she wouldn’t deny spending a lot on pricy items.

“Absolutely… But it’s my choice. It’s my money,” she continued. 

According to Dorit, who said that she can only say “so much” about the impending foreclosure of her $6.5 million home since it’s currently in litigation, the status of her mansion is “embarrassing.”

“It’s hard,” she admitted. 

Dorit then said she was “absolutely” willing to downsize.

“That’s what I would love to do. [But] when you’re not having communication, it’s difficult to move forward,” she explained.
