The RHOBH cast member posted a sweet tribute to her estranged husband on his special day.
Dorit Kemsley still has love for Paul “PK” Kemsley.
Nearly four months after announcing her marital split, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills mom took to Instagram on Friday (August 23) to share a heartfelt birthday message for her estranged husband. The Story showed the couple smiling from ear to ear alongside their 10-year-old son, Jagger, and 8-year-old daughter, Phoenix.
“Happy birthday [PK],” Dorit captioned the photo, which PK reshared on his Instagram. “Lots of love from me and the munchkins.”

While Dorit and her children were on a tropical vacation, PK rang in his 57th birthday with a weekend getaway to Las Vegas. The British-born businessman was accompanied by a small group of friends, including Kyle Richards’ estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky.
“Let’s go! It’s Vegas, baby!” PK said in a video filmed during his flight to Sin City. “It’s time. Thank you for joining me on my birthday, Mauricio… And thank you for remaining my dear, dear friend.”

PK’s birthday festivities went down as uncertainty looms over his marriage to Dorit. Just weeks after celebrating their ninth wedding anniversary, the Beverly Hills couple released a joint statement confirming their separation.
“We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage,” the since-deleted post read. “We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together.
“To safeguard our deep friendship and maintain a harmonious environment for our children we have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children. We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey. With love, Dorit and PK.”

Since then, Dorit and PK have maintained a supportive and loving relationship, as indicated by their social media activity. It was just a little over a month ago when PK hit up Instagram to acknowledge Dorit’s special day.
“Happy birthday,” he commented on the Wife's July 14 post, followed by the heart and applause emojis.
Does Dorit think she and PK will get back together?
While it appears the estranged couple are keeping things cordial, it’s unclear if they’ve taken any steps toward reconciliation. Dorit addressed the matter during a July chat with TMZ, admitting she wasn’t sure if the marriage could be repaired.
“Oh, I don’t know. It’s not a question just for me, you know?” she said, adding that her main “focus” was on her kids. “One step at a time. One step at a time.”
