LOS ANGELES, CA (July 31, 2025) — UNBURDENED: Moving On, Letting Go & Putting It All on the Table by Dorit Kemsley, veteran star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, was acquired in a major deal by Stephanie Beard at Podium Entertainment in a preempt by Folio Literary Management and MVE Management. Podium is slated to publish Kemsley’s first memoir in Spring 2026. UNBURDENED will be released simultaneously in hardcover and digital formats, with Kemsley narrating the audiobook.
Known to millions for her bold fashion sense and unforgettable presence on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for eight seasons, Dorit Kemsley has long captivated audiences with her glamour and poise. But behind the curated image seen by millions lies a much deeper story—one that she’s ready to share in full for the first time.
“For years, people have seen glimpses of my life—but this book is the full story. The beauty, the heartbreak, the fear, the fight, and the strength it took to become the woman I am today,” says Kemsley.
“Podium Entertainment is so honored to give Dorit a platform to tell her whole story—both behind the glam and before the cameras started rolling—in her own unique and memorable voice,” said Stephanie Beard, Senior Acquisitions Director at Podium Entertainment.
UNBURDENED tells Dorit’s glamorous and deeply personal story—a story of transformation, resilience, and the unshakable power of self-love. For fans and new readers alike, this memoir will offer an intimate look at the woman behind the camera: a mother, a survivor, a dreamer, and a woman reclaiming her voice.
