Kyle Richards claimed she didn’t know Dorit Kemsley and Paul “PK” Kemsley are facing separation rumors — but fans aren’t buying it.
When a “Watch What Happens Live” viewer asked Richards about her co-star’s speculated split Wednesday night, Richards reacted with a shocked expression.
The reality star, 54, stuttered before saying, “I did not see that. That came out today?”
She asked host Andy Cohen whether he was aware, to which the 55-year-old Bravo executive replied, “I heard something about that rumor. I’m wondering if you had heard it before today.”
Richards insisted that she “had not heard that” — but couldn’t resist grinning as the audience giggled.
Cohen, sounding suspicious, said, “OK.”
Twitter users expressed their doubts that Richards didn’t know about Dorit and PK’s allegedly rocky marriage, with one pointing out that her “smirk says it all.”
Another agreed that “body language says everything,” while a third claimed, “Kyle 100% heard about the Dorit rumor this morning BFFR.”
One Bravo fan called Richards a “terrible actress.”
Another social media user wrote, “She was very much doing her best to feign surprise. Her facial expressions after Andy challenged her speaks volumes.”

Fellow guest Teddi Mellencamp also said that she was unaware of Dorit and PK’s status, going on to slam Sutton Stracke for alleging on the “RHOBH” Season 13 premiere that the businessman had “a woman in the car with him” when he was arrested for a 2021 DUI.
“I think it’s pretty rich coming from Sutton who has vodka in her purse 24/7,” Mellencamp, 42, said.
Stracke, 52, clapped back, writing via Twitter, “The word of the night on @BravoWWHL should have been SUTTON.”
After “RHOBH” and “WWHL” aired Wednesday night, Dorit, 47, and PK, 56, told People in a joint statement that they are “focusing on healing” despite experiencing “challenging years” in their marriage.
The couple, who requested fans ignore “rumors and hearsay,” clarified, “We remain committed to working through these issues as a united couple for our family. We have not separated nor are we planning to do so.”
