Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 Trailer: Kyle and Dorit Come to Blows as Their Marriages Fall Apart
“Beverly Hills is the place where marriages come to die.”
That one of the standout lines from the season 14 trailer for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which dropped on Thursday, Oct. 24. Spoken by Sutton Stracke, the comment could be directed at herself or any number of women on the show who are divorced, including Erika Girardi, Garcelle Beauvais or even new Friend this year, Jennifer Tilly.
But by the way the trailer is edited, Stracke seems to be talking about Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley, who are both at a crossroads in their respective marriages. Richards and estranged husband Mauricio Umansky separated in the summer of 2023 after 27 years of marriage, while Dorit and Paul “PK” Kemsley announced in May 2024 they had made “the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship.”
Neither Housewives have filed for divorce yet, but Richards is at least feeling the pressure to do so from Stracke in the new season, which premieres Tuesday, Nov. 19 (at 8 p.m. ET) on Bravo.
“I think that you need to file,” Stracke tells Richards, as the former Halloween actress reacts to pictures of Umansky lip-locked with another woman. “It sucks to see photos of your ex making out with some child,” says Beauvais.
“It’s too much all at once,” a tearful Richards tells Umansky. who agrees, “of course.”
Dorit and PK are also navigating where they stand. “We’re talking, like, five times a day,” Dorit points out to PK, before he insists, “I know but we’re not going to.”
PK is, however, talking to Richards — something that appears to put a rift between Dorit and her longtime friend. The two butt heads multiple times in the trailer, including one tense dinner where Richards tells Dorit, “God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason, will you let me talk?”
“It’s okay, Kyle, it’s time for you to f—ing listen,” snaps back Dorit, who also telling Richards in the clip. “You think I’m some f—ing idiot!”
Things get even worse between the pals by the end of the clip. “What more do you f—ing want from me?” a screaming Richards asks, Dorit shouting back, “I want you to stop f—ing raising your voice at me!”
“I’m done with this s—, I’m done. I’m not doing this anymore,” a crying Richards says as she walks off, saying earlier in the trailer in the same moment, “Look at all of us. Our age and what we’re doing. Everybody honestly should be ashamed of themselves. Seriously.”
It’s a long way from the way the trailer begins, with all the women — including new Housewife Bozoma “Boz” Saint John and returning Friend Kathy Hilton — all coming together in a friendship ceremony led by Stracke.
“Let us join our palms together. We are now sisters forever,” she says.
But Stracke also makes it clear where her loyalties really lie. “I am not going to bow down at the altar of Kyle Richards,” she says. “We don’t need you to make this group exist.”
This is a season of transformation for the ladies of Beverly Hills, according to a Bravo release.
“As the ladies bond over fun-filled escapades to Oceanside, Calif., Augusta, Ga., and St. Lucia, they promise to find a way to work together through any challenges that come,” the network’s reads. “But as the women balance the pressures of family life and the ups and downs of their businesses, friendships are put to the test.”
Back in May, Bravo revealed that Saint John, Hilton and Tilly would be joining the cast.
A celebrated author, podcaster and marketing executive with who has worked in leadership positions with a slew of brands including PepsiCo, Apple Music, Uber, Endeavor and Netflix, Saint John, 47, comes to RHOBH with an established path of professional success. She’s a mother and widower, as her husband of 10 years, Peter Saint John, died in 2013.
Tilly has made appearances on the show in the past as a confidant of Stracke’s. The cult-favorite actress — an Oscar nominee for Bullets over Broadway — is known for roles on screen in Bound, Liar Liar, Family Guy and as Tiffany Valentine in the Child’s Play series. Now in a more substantial part on RHOBH, the show will mark the first true reality series Tilly, 66, has done in her four decades in Hollywood.
As for Hilton, the sister of Kyle (and former Housewife Kim Richards) is a returning favorite. The 65-year-old has guested on the show for years and was an official Friend in seasons 11 and 12. She previously said that filming Paris in Love with her daughter, Paris Hilton, prevented her from appearing as a Friend on season 13 — though she did show up at the reunion unexpectedly.
Also appearing this season will be guest appearances by original Beverly Hills Housewife Camille Grammar and longtime favorite Faye Resnick, as well as award-winning interior designer Martyn Bullard (from the former Bravo show Million Dollar Decorators).
