“Bling Empire: New York” star Dorothy Wang and her on-screen love interest Ari Kourkoumelis are officially over, Page Six can confirm.
The former couple’s budding romance was featured on Season 1 of the “Bling Empire” spinoff series, with the finale leaving fans wondering whether the heiress and attorney would commit to one another.
However, we’re told exclusively that Wang, 35, and Kourkoumelis, 31, dated for only one or two months after the Netflix show wrapped and called it quits for good in the spring of 2021.
“It just didn’t work out,” an insider tell us. “There was no major reason, except they weren’t really compatible.”
Wang and Kourkoumelis met in the Bahamas, while “Bling Empire: New York” cameras were rolling, and the pair rekindled their romance back in the Big Apple.
The series followed along as the billionaire mogul and Queens, NY-raised lawyer went on a fun pizza date, and tried to assimilate to each other’s cultures.
In one scene, Wang met Kourkoumelis’s father, a produce market and juice bar owner, and petitioned that he should start a clothing line based off of the store’s brand.

Meanwhile, another “Bling Empire: New York” co-star appears unlucky in love.
Blake Abbie recently told Page Six exclusively that it’s hard for him to meet someone he’s “into,” adding, “It’s hard for me to find people that I really connect with … and that’s really important to me.”
Netflix has not yet announced whether the “Bling Empire: New York” has been renewed, but Season 1 is now streaming.
