Things aren’t getting better between Amanda Frances and Dorit Kemsley. The two had a contentious confrontation on the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and their relationship isn’t likely to recover any time soon.
Amanda Frances accused Dorit Kemsley of being “accusatory”
“We don’t recover,” Amanda told US Weekly. “And the thing is, we could have.”
On the latest episode of RHOBH Season 15, the women attend a dinner at the home of Rachel Zoe. And from the get-go, it got tense and awkward between Dorit and Amanda. Dorit mentioned she signed a book deal, and while the other ladies were congratulating her, Amanda was trying to ascertain what Dorit meant by getting a co-author.
Amanda’s “ghost writer” comments seemed shady to Dorit and to Erika Jayne and Rachel (who both used co-authors, too). Dorit confronted Amanda about her comments on Dorit’s divorce from PK Kemsley. Amanda had previously expressed some concern about Dorit speaking publicly about PK amid their divorce proceedings.
Unfortunately, it was not a good day to confront Amanda. The RHOBH newbie said she was “holding on by a thread” as it was the third anniversary of her son Zion’s death. Amanda opened up about the loss of her son when he was born prematurely. So she was already feeling raw.
Dorit’s confrontation just made her feel worse, and she felt it was accusatory and attacking. Amanda felt bad because both she and Dorit were going through challenging times, and it could have been a time to get to know one another and bond. “We could have repaired,” Amanda said. “We could have recovered.”
“It felt very aggressive to me in that moment,” Amanda said. “I think the minute I told her what the day was, it should have been, ‘I’m so sorry. I had no idea.’” Amanda thought Dorit should have dropped it at least for that time.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs on Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo. It streams the next day on Peacock.
