Is Kyle Richards still texting Paul “PK” Kemsley? That question plagued Dorit Kemsley in The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills‘ supersized Season 15 premiere, when Kyle denied any ongoing communication. But when Dorit stopped by The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show, she revealed she isn’t buying it.
“I actually think she does text him,” Dorit said. “I honestly don’t think that Kyle believes that it is against the girl code at all.”
Viewers will remember that Season 14 covered the bombshell that Kyle was still in contact with Dorit’s newly estranged husband. During that season, Kyle insisted that her “friendship with PK is memes and jokes,” but later in the season, Kyle tearfully told Dorit, “I’ve been made to feel like I did something wrong.” Although Kyle and Dorit seemingly made up during the Season 14 reunion that taped at the end of February, the Season 15 After Show revealed that things are still complicated.
“I think that if you are doing that, you are at least telling your girlfriends what you’re doing,” Dorit explained on the After Show. “That is the big problem for me.”
Is Kyle Richards still texting PK Kemsley today?
When asked by Sutton Stracke during the RHOBH Season 15 premiere, Kyle made it clear to the ‘Wives she is not still texting PK.
“After last season, I mean, no way,” Kyle added during the After Show. “From the minute that whole thing started happening, I was like, I will not respond to these memes. There will be no laughing emojis. And [PK] knows that. Mau[ricio Umansky] has had conversations with him.”
However, Kyle also admitted that she does still communicate with PK in some form through her estranged husband, who is best friends with PK.
“I’ve been talking to Mau, and he’ll say, ‘I’m here with PK and don’t dare send him any memes.’ Little jokes like that through Mau. But I honestly was just like—“ Kyle said as she made a motion to wipe her hands clean on the After Show.

On the After Show, Kyle shared her views on the situation as well. “Sending someone a meme, what they’ve done for like 10 years, just because you think something is funny, I don’t think is a big deal,” she said during the RHOBH After Show. “Especially when that person is your husband’s best friend.”

“It was really hard, because she was not being kind to me, and here he was going out of his way to be kind and check on me with the separation and everything,” Kyle continued. “I felt like, yes, we’re supposed to be girls’ girls and support each other, but I wasn’t getting that from her at all.”
Eventually, though, she pulled back her friendship with PK. “I was like, ‘Okay, I know I’m friends with both of them, but we’re both women, so I’m just going to stick with Dorit, even though it’s not that easy right now because of where we were.’”
At BravoCon 2025, Kyle shared more about how she and Mauricio “navigate” co-parenting their daughters during their separation.
