Jeff Lewis isn’t holding back when sharing his thoughts on Dorit Kemsley and her place in the RHOBH season 14 cast!
On Tuesday’s Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen episode, guest Jeff Lewis said that Dorit Kemsley brings “NOTHING” to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills franchise.
In recent years, Bravo has shifted around the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast numerous times. They have removed and added several cast members while keeping a core group of ladies to keep the show grounded. Lisa Vanderpump left the series during season 9. Denise Richards came and went on the show in the blink of an eye. The franchise has also endured several one-and-done Housewives.
Amid all the changes, Bravo has kept Kyle Richards, Sutton Stracke, Garcelle Beauvais, Dorit Kemsley, and Erika Jayne around.
It turns out Jeff Lewis doesn’t agree with most of Bravo’s casting choices for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
“I’m going to bring back Camille [Grammer] as a friend,” Jeff told Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen.
He continued, “[I’d also] bring Denise Richards back as a friend. … Lisa Rinna I’m bringing back as a full-time regular. Crystal [Kung Minkoff] I’m bringing back as a friend because I think that was a mistake getting rid of her.”
However, the former Flipping Out star swiftly added: “Now, I’m getting rid of Dorit because she adds nothing.”
Andy interjected, “Jeff’s gonna eat his words about that Dorit comment.”
On the WWHL: Aftershow, Jeff was asked if he had heard from Dorit following her recent split from her husband, Paul ‘PK’ Kemsley.
Jeff revealed that he heard about their split from a mutual friend before the news went public.
“I think now what happens is people are reluctant to text me because I will read it on the radio. So it’s amazing that people still text me, actually. So I don’t think they’re gonna text me. I’m actually fine with PK. I like PK,” Jeff said.
On Thursday, May 9, Dorit and PK announced they were taking some time apart amid their ongoing marital woes.
Dorit Kemsley and PK have been married since 2015 and share two children. They joined the Beverly Hills Housewives franchise in 2016 during season 7.
The estranged couple’s marital issues will play out during season 14 of RHOBH, which began production in May.

RHOBH is expected to return to Bravo in late 2024 or early 2025.
