Teddi Mellencamp Reacts to Dorit Kemsley’s Rumored Debt
Teddi Mellencamp and Dolores Catania are weighing in on speculation surrounding Dorit Kemsley’s finances following her divorce from PK Kemsley.
Speaking on the Friday, March 13, episode of “Two Ts in a Pod With Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge,” the Real Housewives stars shared their opinion as they reacted to rumors that Dorit’s home could potentially be foreclosed over spiraling debt.
“It says, ‘Dorit Kemsley Faces Foreclosure of $6.5 Million Mansion Over $842K Debt Mountain After Fans Call Out Her Shopping Addiction.’ This is on Radar,” Mellencamp, 44, said.
While Mellencamp did not elaborate on whether the report was true, she said Dorit had a right to be “concerned” if this issue was looming over her head.

For her part, Catania, 55, warned that following a divorce, issues can come back to haunt women who don’t keep across their finances during the marriage.
“She’s been very clear: ‘I don’t know my finances, I don’t know my bills. He handled it all.’ And you’re really taking a really big risk when you don’t know your finances in a marriage,” Catania said.

Catania went on to ponder how Dorit was spending her money in the wake of her split from PK.
“So she’s been on [Real Housewives] long enough. You know what I thought about when I saw this? She’s not a dumb girl. She speaks several languages,” Catania said.
Emphasizing that she was on Dorit’s “side” on the issue, Catania added, “But I thought to myself, what have you been doing with your money all this time? Have you been spending it?”

Dorit and PK — who share son Jagger, 11, and daughter Phoenix, 9 — revealed that they were going their separate ways in May 2024.
“We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage. We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together,” they said in a joint statement at the time.
“To safeguard our deep friendship and maintain a harmonious environment for our children, we have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children,” the exes continued. “We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey. With love, Dorit and PK.”
Dorit filed for divorce from PK in April 2025, nearly one year after they announced their separation, per court documents obtained by Us Weekly.
