“It's Mother's Day this weekend, when do you think you'll be back?” Dorit, 47, asked PK, 56, during the Wednesday, February 14 episode The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. An image on the screen showed he was on “day 12” of his trip to London.
'I'll be back as soon as possible. This particular deal is where I need to be,” PK replied. “Honestly, honey. Mother's Day, it was never really a big thing in England.”
Dorit hit back, saying, “Listen, Mother's Day needs to be recognized.”
Not long after Dorit Kemsley met real estate developer Paul 'PK' Kemsley in 2011, romance blossomed – and their love story has remained strong ever since. “Well, we met and we didn't really have our first official date for a few months,” the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star recalled during a September get-together.

PK seemed to end the conversation with a loud bang. “You're not my mother,” he said.
“No, I'm the mother of your children,” Dorit replied. “From now on, I would like you to make a concerted effort to be together on Mother's Day, because that is important to me.”
This isn't the first time PK's snarky attitude has gotten him into trouble with Dorit on Season 13 of the Bravo hit.
During an episode that aired last month, PK claimed that “elements” of his wife's battle with PTSD had become “unpleasant” rather than worrisome.
“There are elements that I understand, there are also elements that I do not consider to be PTSD. I don't,” he said during a therapy session with Dorit. “The reality is: When is high maintenance associated with PTSD?”
Dorit's PTSD stems from a 2021 home invasion in which she was robbed at gunpoint while she slept. The couple's children, son Jagger, 9, and daughter Phoenix, 7, were in the house, PK was away in London when the incident occurred.
“I feel like you don't fully understand the severity of the PTSD for me and largely partly the element of surprise,” Dorit told her husband in the January episode. “I'm trying to tell you and you just got really defensive.”
The couple's tension on recent RHOBH episodes have fueled rumors about the state of their relationship. In November 2023, it was reported that the couple was “living separate lives” after eight years of marriage, but Dorit and PK released a joint statement shutting down split speculation.
Dorit opened up exclusively We weekly about the rumors later that month. “You know, PK and I immediately made a statement to debunk the rumors so people wouldn't take it to another level? I mean, we said everything we needed to say,” Dorit said at BravoCon. 'It's not true, we are not divorced [and] we are not going to divorce.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs on Bravo Wednesdays at 8pm ET.
