In 2021, The U.S. Sun exclusively reported Dorit and PK Kemsley’s financial struggles, noting that the couple owed over a million dollars in unpaid taxes. While PK had two solo tax liens in his name (the first, a $293,222.73 payment from 2015, and a second for $289,423.67 from 2018), tax documents showed the couple owed the Internal Revenue Service over $600,000 in taxes. The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star also had a reported solo tax lien of $90,269.46 dating to March 2021. Combined, the couple’s unpaid taxes came to a whopping sum of $1,308,803.09.
Two years later, in October 2023, The U.S. Sun shared another report, revealing that Dorit had paid off the couple’s joint tax lien of $635,887 from 2015. Interestingly, PK was not cleared of the debt as the certificate of release obtained at the time carried only Dorit’s name. Despite paying off a lump sum of her tax lien, however, she still had an outstanding debt of $90,269 to be paid to the Internal Revenue Service.
Court documents obtained at the time also confirmed that PK still owed the IRS and the state of California hundreds of thousands in taxes. With $230,965 and $293,222 from 2014 and 2015, $404,242 and $58,458, PK’s combined tax debt was capped at $986,887 at the time.
