After announcing her separation from husband Paul ‘PK’ Kemsley, Dorit Kemsley is back in front of the camera for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The reality star, 47, was spotted filming scenes for season 14 at a party hosted by fellow RHOBH star Sutton Stracke.
In snaps posted by fan account Queens of Bravo, Dorit mingled with co-stars Kyle Richards, 55, Kathy Hilton, 65, and Garcelle Beauvais, 57.
Castmate Erika Jayne, 52, newcomer Bozoma Saint John, 47, and actress Jennifer Tilly, 65, were also seen in the photos.
Dorit donned an elaborate wide-brim hat and curve-clinging dress as she enjoyed the festivities.

After announcing her separation from husband Paul ‘PK’ Kemsley, Dorit Kemsley is back for another season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
A source previously told DailyMail.com that Bravo threatened to downgrade Dorit to a ‘friend’ of the cast and cut her back to three episodes if she didn’t admit that PK, 56, moved out and is staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel amid their marital issues.
Dorit previously denied living ‘separate lives’ as she appeared on the season 13 reunion episode, claiming she and PK were ‘better than ever’ after he had been sober for ’49 days.’
But last week Dorit shared a statement announcing their separation.
‘We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage,’ she posted to Instagram. ‘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.
‘To safe guard 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.
‘We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey. With love, Dorit and PK.’
She hit back at a fan who asked in the comments section of the statement, ‘Wait I thought y’all were stronger than ever?’
‘We were,’ responded Dorit. ‘S**t happens. It’s called life- try it sometime. One day at a time.’

Richards was also spotted in the season 14 filming snaps and shared snaps of her racy party look to Instagram.
She captioned them: ‘Let’s do this.’
The Halloween Ends actress sizzled in a plunging black dress, which she accessorized with floral-adorned antlers.
‘Loved your look last night! So pretty,’ wrote Tilly in the comments section.
The party appeared to have a surreal animal theme, with Stracke also wearing antlers, Tilly in a black swan dress, and Jayne wearing zebra print.

Richards’ return comes after a source told DailyMail.com that Bravo gave her an ultimatum that she has to open up on the show about her relationship with country singer Morgan Wade.
‘The producers feel that Kyle has said all she can say about her split from Mauricio [Umansky] and now it is time to tell the truth about her dating Morgan,’ they said.
‘Kyle has beat around the bush a ton on Morgan and it is getting old,’ the insider added. ‘It is time for her to finally admit that it is more than a friendship.’
After a ‘very challenging’ season 13, Richards told Extra in March that she hadn’t decided whether she would return to the show, which is ‘always something I decide last minute.’
Richards and Umansky, 53, announced their separation in July amid months of rumors about their marriage and her relationship with Wade, 29.
The pair tied the knot in 1996, and they share daughters Alexia, 27, Sophia, 24, and 16-year-old Portia. Richards also shares daughter Farrah, 35, with her first husband Guraish Aldjufrie.

Meanwhile, Crystal Kung Minkoff was reportedly not asked to return for season 14, following three seasons in the cast, and AnneMarie Wiley was also given the book after one season
Meanwhile, Crystal Kung Minkoff was reportedly not asked to return for season 14, following three seasons in the cast.
‘They don’t want her back because they feel she has done all she can do on the show and she no longer has much to add to the drama, so another contract has not been offered,’ a source told DailyMail.com last month.
The insider said Minkoff, 41, ‘wanted to leave the show for a while, she is sick of all the fighting and hashing things out, it became like a never-ending rollercoaster for her. Plus she wants to focus on her family away from the cameras.’
Annemarie Wiley was also given the boot after one season, writing that she was ‘disappointed’ that viewers ‘never got to see the real me or even a glimpse of my unique story.’
