Dorit Kemsley is one proud mom. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member proved as much on Sunday, December 11, when she took to Instagram to share an update on her 6-year-old daughter, Phoenix, who recently started taking ballet classes.

“My baby girl’s first ballet recital The Nutcracker,” Dorit wrote alongside a photo of herself posing with a dressed-up Phoenix plus several videos from the recital. “I couldn’t be more proud of how determined and passionate Phoenix has been since starting ballet just over [five] weeks ago! She was the last student to join the academy and since then I’ve watched her dedication and excitement transform into pure joy and focus on being the best she could be.”

Dorit added that she was “more nervous” than Phoenix heading into the recital, but all of her doubts faded once her “precious little girl” took the stage to “perform for hundreds of people.”

“Tears of joy rolling down my cheeks, as any proud parent would understand,” she continued. “I not only felt an immense sense of pride but equally so, have felt inspired in the best way possible. I’m so grateful we get to share these occasions with my sister and her family. It makes these moments feel even more special. Bravo principessa we are all so proud of you!”

Dorit’s RHOBH castmates were also proud of Phoenix. Kathy Hilton commented, “Wow!!!!!” with several joyous emojis; Erika Jayne wrote, “Yesssss Phoenix!!” and Crystal Kung Minkoff said, “A star is born!!!!” Garcelle Beauvais and Lisa Rinna also commented variations of “Go Phoenix!”
