Dorit Kemsley says Crystal Kung Minkoff was a ‘child bride’ for marrying Rob at age 24 - lulu

   

Dorit Kemsley thinks her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-star Crystal Kung Minkoff was a “child bride” for marrying Rob Minkoff at the age of 24.

In a sneak peek of Wednesday night’s episode of the Bravo reality series, Annemarie Wiley puts Crystal on blast for allegedly mocking her castmates’ level of intelligence and superficiality.

“The first thing Crystal said to me about this group of women was that you ladies were not intelligent, nobody was educated and you’re all shallow,” Wiley announces during a group dinner, prompting Crystal, 40, to reply, “Shallow and uneducated? That’s ridiculous. That’s ridiculous.”

Kemsley, 47, takes offense to the alleged remark and shades Crystal in a confessional, saying, “You’re nowhere near more educated than the rest of us. And by the way, child bride, while you were busy getting married at 12, the rest of us were building businesses, graduating college, doing things — you know — to educate ourselves.”

Crystal — who obtained degrees in biology and history, plus a culinary education, from the University of California, Irvine — tied the knot with Rob in September 2007. The “Lion King” co-director, who is 21 years her senior, was 45 at the time.

Meanwhile, the Beverly Beach by Dorit co-founder — who graduated from Quinnipiac University in Connecticut with degrees in marketing, design and communication — said “I do” to Paul “PK” Kemsley in March 2015 when she was 38 and the businessman was 47.

As for the claim in question, Crystal insists to the ladies that she never called any of them those names.

“I would not say that to someone that I just met. I don’t feel that way … I didn’t say that,” the Real Coco co-founder says, adding in a confessional, “That’s false. I never said those things.”

But show editors quickly whip out the receipts, proof, timeline and screenshots to show that Crystal has, indeed, made similar comments in the past.

In a 2020 confessional, she said, “These women are quite savvy, but they’re clearly not highly educated.”

During that same season, she told her co-stars, “I’m not gonna change the word that I used. The word was used correctly. … Violation means to abuse your privacy. Disrespect of boundaries. Period. Google it!”

The following year, she said at an all-cast meal, “I know, these are big words,” to which Garcelle Beauvais responded, “We understand big words.”

Beauvais, for one, believes Wiley.

“Do we have a history with Crystal thinking maybe we were less smart than her?” the actress says in a confessional Wednesday night. “We kinda already knew that Crystal thinks that maybe some of us are not as astute as she is. There’s a word for her!”
