Date of birth: August 17, 1967

Dorit met her husband in New York. Their friends introduced the rich property owner Paul and the tender blonde Dorit to each other. He liked her at first sight and invited the woman for a date, but she refused because she had to go on business to China. But Paul convinced her to cancel the flight. Since that evening the lovebirds were inseparable. Kemsley, who comes from Britain, moved to New York. They dated just for a while when Paul dared to propose Dorit, having stood up on one knee in a luxurious restaurant, where the parents of both were present.

They exchanged the vows at a lavish wedding ceremony, which took place in the Rainbow Room, the luxurious venue in New York. On March 7, 2020, they celebrated the happy fifth anniversary.

Paul Zeital Kemsley was born and raised in the district of London, called Stanmore. He graduated from Atholl School and then decided to start working. He got his first working experience at the age of 15 when he was hired as a salesman to the lavish shop “John Paul Menswear”. At work, he met aspiring businessman Mike Ashley, who opened the boutique “Sports World” and invited Paul to work there.

In 1985 Kemsley changed the focus of his career from sports equipment to real estate and found a job at “Ross Jaye”. During many years he earned his living as a realtor when he finally dared to start his own business.

Having become successful as a real estate mogul, Paul tried his hand as a football club owner, and then as a talent manager. Now the famous singer Boy George is one of his clients.

Previously to meeting Dorit, Paul was married to Loretta Gold and welcomed three children with her. Their names are Atlanta, Tatum, and Daniel. But the couple separated in 2012. Three years later he convinced Dorit to marry him, and that was his best achievement (as the man confessed on his Instagram page).

Phoenix is Dorit and Paul’s daughter. In one of her Instagram posts, the woman told that her son looks like her, but spiritually her daughter is a little copy of her. Phoenix is a little fashionista, just like her mom. Besides, she feels very comfortable in front of the cameras. The girl is also a good cook. Very often she bakes muffins and other tasty dough products. She was just 3, when she started her own cooking show (with the great support of her mother, of course).

Phoenix’s show has already gained a wide audience. Many people from different parts of the planet like to watch the little beautiful girl in a pink apron, who prepares cookies or cakes.

Dorit gained a large fan base immediately after her first episode on the show, due to her unique style, unusual accent, and straightforward behavior.

Of course, not each woman can become the heroine of RHOBH. Dorit has made a long way to become such a stunning woman and an interesting personality. She was born in Woodbridge, Connecticut in the family of Israeli parents (she tells, her accent comes from her parents and besides, from those many years she had spent in Europe). After graduation from high school, she left her parents’ house and moved to Europe to see the world. During a decade she lived in Italy. There she got a degree in Marketing and Design. After that, she found a job of her dream at a swimwear company and gained precious experience there. Finally, she retired and came back to the USA. The well-experienced business lady founded her own company “Dorit International”, whose activity was focused on making the brand new swimsuits for women. Her company was quite successful. Its headquarter was based in New York. But she had to make a pause in her career after meeting her husband Paul Kemsley and giving birth to their two kids. The new-made family relocated to Los Angeles, where Dorit got a chance to try her hand as a reality TV actress. She was accepted to the famous show “RHOBH”. Besides, she re-launched her line of clothes.

Mrs. Kemsley is a woman with a kind heart. She is a well-known philanthropist, too. She is an active member of a charity organization “Safe Kids”.
