Boy George Slams Dorit Kemsley’s Father’s Day Post as PK Split Spills Into 2015 Wedding Friendship

Q: Amid a messy divorce, why was PK reportedly praising the tell-all book written by the wife he's publicly battling?

PK was reportedly praising Dorit Kemsley’s memoir because, despite their bitter divorce, he appeared supportive of the book’s success rather than its criticisms of him. According to Lala Kent, speaking on her June 17 *Untraditionally Lala* podcast, PK had been “singing Dorit’s praises” and was happy with the reception to *Unburdened*. The book, released June 2, became a *New York Times* bestseller, and reports say PK even reacted positively in the comments around that achievement. That does not mean the divorce conflict had eased. Dorit’s memoir includes candid material about her marriage and her push for financial independence, and she said she hoped PK would read it so they could remember their “deep history” and move toward better co-parenting. At the same time, reporting indicates PK had no real interest in reading the book itself. So the apparent contradiction is that PK was publicly complimentary about Dorit and the memoir’s success while still fighting her in court and in the press. Their split remains highly contentious, involving disputes over custody, support, household bills and public accusations on both sides. His praise seems to have been about acknowledging her accomplishment and speaking well of her generally, not a sign that their broader battle was resolved.

Boy George called Dorit Kemsley’s Father’s Day message “absolutely disgusting,” publicly rebuking her after she appeared to accuse estranged husband PK Kemsley of failing as a father.
Dorit’s Instagram Story said “a man who makes the mother of his child struggle is a complete failure” and criticized a father who leaves a mother “carrying everything alone without real support.”
PK had been described just days earlier on Lala Kent’s June 17 podcast as “singing” Dorit’s praises, sharpening the contrast with Dorit’s latest public attack.
Boy George’s intervention carries personal weight because he is a longtime friend of PK’s and performed at Dorit and PK’s 2015 wedding at New York’s Rainbow Room.
The clash extends a broader public split: Dorit earlier said she learned about PK’s new girlfriend when “the whole world did,” while rumors say Boy George introduced PK to Tatiana Kharchylava.
