We have not separated nor are we planning to do so. Rather, we are focused on healing, making changes and doing the things that many couples have to do at some point in their marriage. We would be grateful for everyone\u2019s understanding. We are doing what we can to focus on the best interests of our family, as opposed to spending our time contending with rumors and hearsay that are not true. Love, Dorit and PK.\u201d<\/p>\n The pair \u200bresponded shortly after In Touch<\/em> reported they called it quits<\/a>. \u201cThey\u2019ve been living separate lives for about two months after she ended it,\u201d an insider exclusively revealed. \u201cPaul is apparently \u2018heartbroken.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n The source continued, \u201cShe\u2019s been telling people that she fell out of love with him but they agreed to keep it a secret for now so it doesn\u2019t affect the show.\u201d<\/p>\n In addition to the insider information, In Touch<\/em> also obtained photos of PK leaving the hotel he\u2019s been staying at without his wedding ring.<\/p>\n Dorit and PK\u2019s marital issues come one year after rumors circulated that the Beverly Beach by Dorit founder had an affair with Kyle Richards<\/b><\/a>\u2019 now-estranged husband, <\/span>Mauricio Umansky<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n The speculation began when RHOBH<\/span><\/i><\/a> alum <\/span>Dana Wilkey<\/b> claimed that Dorit had been secretly seeing Mauricio, 53, in August 2022, which was nearly one year before <\/span>his separation from Kyle, 54,<\/span><\/a> was revealed in July.<\/p>\n However, Dorit denied the rumors when she appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen<\/em><\/a> in September 2022. \u201cWhen something is so ridiculous, you just kind of discount it,\u201d she said at the time. \u201cIt\u2019s something that sticks a chord only because Mau, PK, Kyle and I, we\u2019re friends together and it is such a nothing and to have someone start those vile rumors, it\u2019s gross.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite shutting down the cheating rumors, fans continued to theorize that Dorit and PK\u2019s romantic relationship was over. \u201cThis west coast housewife and her husband are DONE. They are deciding whether to announce now or after the season ends,\u201d BravoBadGirl wrote via Twitter<\/a> in October. \u201cToo many hints on air and it\u2019s impossible to hide anymore. NOT who you think at all.\u201d<\/p>\n
