Dorit Kemsley is opening up the state of her relationship with Erika Jayne.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-stars became on the outs over the last season, including a very tense moment during a cast trip to Italy.
While promoting her new memoir, Unburdened, the Bravo reality star reveals she’s been reconnecting with Erika.
“Well, I had reached out to her when I had seen, you know, there were some headlines about her upcoming trial and that firm that bought her trial. I got, you know, really upset and I reached out,” Dorit said on SiriusXM’s Page Six Radio. “She messaged me right back with the same warmth that we would even before we ever had any issue. And then she reached out to me weeks later, also when the headlines in the press and we talked about getting together very soon and there’s a lot of love there. There’s a lot of love. There’s a lot of history.”
She then addressed the Italy trip.
“You know, prior to that one moment in Italy, Erika and I didn’t have, we never had a cross word. You know, we’ve always been good. So, you know, there was a lot of emotions. It’s been a really challenging couple of years,” Dorit shared. “I, by no means, feel like the only woman going through a divorce, of course not, but when you have a camera that is tracking your every move and I’m living real time, you know, and I really wanted things to be good with PK, but we were not communicating and things were difficult and then obviously to have the issues with Kyle, which I did not expect going into the season. I thought we really turned a corner.”
“So, then to feel that it was, I felt blindsided, and that’s exactly how I felt by Erika in Italy, because I had just been in her room at 2:00 in the morning the night before, sitting on her bed, in the pitch black. She was getting ready to sleep or I think I may have even woken her up,” she continued. “And you know we talked and everything was good and everything was fine. And then the next day, just out of nowhere in this desolate town, I think her intention was to kind of get Kyle and I back together, but then [it felt like an ambush].”
During another recent podcast appearance on Untraditionally Lala with Lala Kent, Dorit mirrored the same notion that her and Erika have “had some text messages,” and that they’ll get together.
She also revealed what it would take for her and Kyle to rekindle their friendship.
“That she would like to meet, speak. All she needs to do really is want to make things better, because I think you need two people. I’m always open to making things better, mending fences, that’s just my nature anyway. I don’t like, you know, to be on opposite ends,” Dorit told Lala.
“Even if you mend fences and you discover that your friendship has taken a different shape, that’s fine, but you know, being in this situation that we’re in now, no, it doesn’t feel nice. This is a long standing friendship. We’ve known each other for ten, almost ten years. We’ve been through a lot, and even whether we’ve been had our ups and downs, it doesn’t matter,” she continued. “You know, when you do a show together, you go through an experience that the only people that understand that are the people that are going through it. And it’s really something special. So, I’d hate to see Kyle and I, you know, not be able to fix things.”
An RHOBH executive producer recently addressed rumors that Dorit has been put on pause from the show.
