BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Paul “PK” Kemsley has a net worth of $50 million as a British businessman, celebrity manager, and reality TV personality. The US Sun, on the other hand, has exclusively disclosed that 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star now owes approximately $1 million in taxes.
The financial difficulties of Dorit Kemsley and PK persist due to their outstanding taxes owed to both the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the state of California. This occurred after, in January 2022, PK settled his $2.27 million debt owed to the Bellagio casino in Las Vegas.
The US Sun was able to get court records indicating that Dorit also settled a $635,887 IRS tax lien related to her and PK's 2015 taxes. Despite PK being named in the application, on March 16, 2023, a certificate of release of her federal lien was filed, relieving her, and she alone, of her burden.
She still owes money from her taxes from 2017 and 2018, nevertheless. She owes the IRS $90,269 as of June 2021, according to a tax lien that was filed in that month.
This is a pitiful sum in comparison to what her spouse has not settled. Court documents that were acquired show that the English businessman is in debt of $986,887 in total for unpaid taxes.
He still owes the Internal Revenue Service $230,965 for taxes paid in 2014 and $58,458 for taxes paid in 2016. Furthermore, he owes the state of California $293,222 from his taxes in 2014 and 2015 and $404,242 from his taxes in 2016.
In 2019, the pair paid $6.5 million for a new house in Encino, despite having a large tax debt. Dorit and PK offered their previous house for $9.5 million after thieves stole $2.5 million worth of goods during their 2018 break-in.
After two years on the market and many price reductions, it was eventually sold for $7.2 million in April 2022.
On Reddit, the Bravo couple was brutally trolled for their personal splurges as reports of unpaid tax did the rounds. One user wrote, "It feels like rich people can skate by with their debt where I just didn’t eat or fill my gas tank until payday." While another user added, "I was just thinking this. I lose my mind when I can’t pay something but Dorit gets a whole new face being $90k in the hole."
Another person chimed in, "She also owed $8k to the nurse who took care of her while getting that new face. They went to court and Dorit was ordered to pay but unclear if she has." One angry viewer wrote, " People go to jail for unpaid parking tickets yet this MFer is a million in the hole and farting around in Beverly Hills."
One user further commented, "Makes me so mad." Another person quipped, "Yet Dorit actually owns all her designer outfits and they “enjoy the finer things”? No wonder she and Erika are so close. Birds of a feather."
One fan theory read, "Wow $2.3 million. Almost exactly the amount of $$$ they claimed was stolen in the burglary. I used to think people were callous to doubt their burglary story, but maybe PK did set it up." While another Redditor wondered, "How much did they make on the “robbery”?"
Are 'RHOBH’s Dorit Kemsley and PK Kemsley still together?
After eight years of marriage, Dorit and PK have called it quits, as only In Touch can confirm. A source exclusively revealed to In Touch that "they've been living separate lives for about two months after she ended it" and that PK has been residing at a Beverly Hills hotel after being spotted leaving the establishment. "Paul is apparently ‘heartbroken.'"
The insider added, “She’s been telling people that she fell out of love with him, but they agreed to keep it a secret for now, so it doesn’t affect the show.”
Did Paul Kemsley cheat on 'RHOBH' star Dorit Kemsley?
During the Season 13 premiere of 'RHOBH', the couple's co-star Sutton Stracke revealed in a confessional, "The only thing I've ever heard about PK and Dorit is the night PK got pulled over for a DUI - he may have or may have not had a woman in the car with him. That's the only rumor I've ever heard."
There has been no official confirmation from either PK or Dorit about the issue; however, it said that their marriage problems started a year after there were rumors that Dorit had an affair with Mauricio Umansky, the now-estranged husband of Kyle Richards.
