What went wrong between the duo? 

During the show Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Dorit Kemsley's statements during the reunion episode indicate that the main issue between her and PK was his excessive drinking. She mentioned that PK's drinking habits had worsened, leading to challenges in their relationship. Later, she also revealed that it was hard for her to have clear-headed conversations while he was heavily involved in drinking.

While Kemsley did not mention a particular breaking point in the relationship, PK's brief stay in a hotel could suggest that there were moments of tension or conflict where he felt the need to distance himself temporarily.

However, PK's drinking was a significant factor contributing to their struggles, and his decision to quit drinking was positive for their relationship. But eventually, they decided to preserve the harmony within their family by separating.
