Dorit Kemsley‘s taking the next step in her split from her estranged husband Paul … ditching her wedding ring just days after filing for divorce.

“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star stepped out in Encino, California — a suburb of Los Angeles — Saturday … dropping her kids off at dance practice in her Range Rover.

She’s going without makeup here … and, she left behind a once critical piece of jewelry for her behind — no wedding ring on her left hand.

It’s a big moment for DK … who flaunted the massive diamond ring Paul gave her at multiple fashionable galas in the past.

We broke the story … Dorit filed for divorce from her husband of 10 years last week — and, she wants full physical and legal custody of their two kids, 11-year-old Jagger and 9-year-old Phoenix. Dorit’s attorney Samantha Spector is trying to get her client spousal support from Paul.

While the two married in March 2015, they separated last year … though Dorit admitted she was open to reconciling with Paul if he was onboard — and, she was still wearing the wedding ring when we caught up with her then.

Looks like they gave it the old college try … but, Paul was recently seen making out with one of Ryan Seacrest‘s old flames — so, the door seems slammed tightly shut at this point.
