"We had a few things in common, so we went out as a group. And in that time it was a very clear — it was a lot of banter between him and I."
"But [the chemistry] was very clear, very apparent. And then when we went on our first date in New York City, he took me to see Jersey Boys, which he had seen six times by then..."
"And I think when he saw that I was just like dancing around and enjoying it so much, I think for him he thought, 'OK, this is definitely my kind of girl.'"
"And for me, I mean he’s just the more lovable fool, he cracks me up," continued Dorit.
Still, despite their appearances on RHOBH, where the duo were a long-time fan-favorite couple, Dorit and PK announced that they were parting ways on Thursday, May 9, 2024.
The couple previously denied rumors back in October 2023 and February 2020 that they were spending time apart.
The former couple revealed the status of their relationship on their respective Instagrams.
“We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage," the former couple wrote.
"We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together."
