PK Kemsley Facing Backlash After RHOBH Season 13 Premiere

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is certainly off to a rocky start. With so many separations ongoing, you can’t help but wonder if it should be called the Ex-Housewives of Beverly Hills. Now, PK Kemsley is facing a different sort of backlash following the RHOBH Season 13 premiere.

The latest couple to supposedly call it quits is Dorit Kemsley and PK. The news broke that they’ve split, and he is currently living in a hotel. The couple were quick to deny those rumors. It wasn’t this that got PK into trouble during the RHOBH premiere, however. Instead, it was his approach to a guest Dorit had invited to the home, in a bid to bring the ladies on the cast back together after a rocky year.

A bit of a rude welcome

During the RHOBH Season 13 premiere episode, Dorit, invited an intuitive healer to their home. The native alchemist introduced herself as Eaglewoman to the couple. She also brought along a friend, and both were greeted by Dorit and her husband, PK. 

When PK heard the name, he turned to the woman’s companion and asked, “Have you got a name like Eaglewoman as well?”

“I do,” the woman replied. “Blue Raven.”

And instead of politely acknowledging that, PK turned to his wife to almost troll their guests. “Blue Raven? Dorit, this is Blue Raven, also known as Nancy.”

Fortunately, Dorit knew him well enough to stop that in its tracks. She quickly stood between the guests and her husband to separate them and quickly said, “Sorry, I’m just going to apologize right now for my husband.”

And again, instead of just leaving it alone, PK doubled down and said, “Hey, that’s not right. I didn’t say anything wrong. I can’t believe you’re making excuses for me.”

“Well, I have to bubba, because I’m petrified what’s going to come out of your mouth,” Dorit replied. Can’t say we blame her.

Instead of just taking the hint, PK continued by saying, “I don’t know if I should call you Eaglewoman, Eagle, or just Woman.” To which the alchemist politely and awkwardly laughed.

PK put his foot in it

In a confessional later on, Dorit admitted that PK had a bad tendency to not think before speaking. “He has a habit of putting his foot right in his mouth … jamming it down his throat,” she explained.

And she wasn’t the only one upset by his attitude. Fans took to Reddit to share how they were appalled by his bad behavior and how he should be kinder to guests in his home.

“I was cringing,” one said. “This sweet lady and her culture/practices should not be a punchline. So disrespectful and hard to watch.”

Another said, “I feel bad for EagleWoman. She isn’t a character on this show, and this is her real profession.” 

Many more added that they couldn’t believe the level of ignorance in 2023 and how PK should have been more respectful to guests in his home and to the culture of others.

We feel for PK and Dorit, and it must have been very difficult shooting with your marriage on the rocks, but still, it was no excuse to be rude.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 13 continues Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
