While discussing her own co-parenting journey with Paul “PK” Kemsley, Dorit also mentioned her current standing with Boy George, comparing PK to Mauricio Umansky. She further engaged in some light-hearted banter about Luann de Lesseps’ BravoCon remarks, and even ranked her co-stars on their romantic game, revealing who she believes has the most and least flair in the dating department.
Addressing Kyle’s relationship with Morgan, Dorit noted a recurring pattern: the duo seems to hit the brakes whenever filming for RHOBH is underway. Back in May, Kyle had publicly called Morgan “beautiful” on social media, just before the cameras started rolling in June. Interestingly, by October, after the filming wrapped, Kyle was spotted enthusiastically attending Morgan’s concert.
When asked about Kyle hinting at a split from Morgan, Dorit pointed to the fact that Kyle and Morgan always seem to cool things off in their relationship whenever RHOBH is filming.
In May of this year, Kyle called Morgan “beautiful” on social media before filming began in June. And then in October, a month after filming ended, Kyle was seen fangirling at Morgan’s concert.
“I think that that sort of happens when she’s filming,” Dorit, 49, said on the December 11 episode of WWHL about Kyle’s split.
As for the reveal itself, Dorit said that Kyle coming clean about having a partner who didn’t want to be seen publicly was “all she really ever had to say.”
“That’s it. All you ever had to say was that, and nothing else would’ve followed,” she noted.
According to Dorit, who said she had “no idea” where Kyle and the mystery person stand today, she was only sort of surprised that Kyle finally came clean.
“Yes and no,” she explained. “I think that it’s gotten to a point where it’s like… you’re getting too close.”
While it was noted that Kyle had been respecting the wishes of the private person she was dating, Dorit suggested she had a responsibility to her fans.
“She’s a public figure, by the way,” she reminded.
Also speaking of Kyle, Dorit was asked about how she said that she treats her differently from other ladies when they give her the same advice.
“It’s very funny … but Kyle and I had a very special relationship for a very long time, almost a decade, and naturally, I’m going to be more sensitive to the way Kyle treats me,” she reasoned. “And when you have that history, you have an expectation, like to be a good friend. And so when that’s not happening, of course, you’re gonna have a problem.”
Moving on to PK, Dorit revealed they are still not in a good place.
“It’s so unfortunate because it’s unnecessarily contentious and more challenging than it needs to be. If you’re not communicating, it’s very difficult to coparent effectively,” she shared.
She was then asked what she admires about Mauricio and wishes PK had more of.
“I think his knowledge and understanding of the show, and being as supportive as Mauricio was,” she replied.
Regarding her castmates, Dorit seemingly shaded Amanda Frances, 40, as the worst-dressed.
“Well, there’s a certain newbie that could use a little help — definitely not [Rachel Zoe],” she said.
Also on the live broadcast, after sharing that Boy George was “firmly in PK’s camp” and “hasn’t even reached out,” Dorit spoke of Rachel, 54, applauding her for having the most game while naming Sutton, 54, as the cast member with the least game, and joking that she talks a lot.
“The beautiful thing is now that Rachel has joined the group … we go toe to toe … You put us together, and … I feel like I can pass the baton,” she explained.
As for Rachel shading PK and Mauricio’s dating lives as “disgusting,” Dorit said her castmate was probably referring to them being so public and out there, “and not really considerate.”
“And I would second that,” she stated.
Later, on the WWHL: After Show, Dorit reacted to Luann, 60, saying she was “not the nicest” at BravoCon and then suggesting it was a compliment.
“I was like, ‘What?’ Because people don’t usually say, ‘Oh, Dorit’s not very friendly.’ I pride myself on being friendly. So I immediately went up to her, because she was backstage, and I was like, I said, ‘Luann, I’m sorry if I gave you this impression,’” she recalled. “She mentioned the same thing about Kyle, which I didn’t understand. I really still don’t comprehend why she thought I was unfriendly because I was friendly with Kyle … where do things stand? I think they’re fine. She basically said that she thinks that I was just focused on Kyle, and so I didn’t mean to be unfriendly. So I let her slide.”
“I’m easier than [Erika Jayne],” she added, giving a nod to Luann calling Erika a “b*tch.”
