BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Paul “PK” Kemsley, husband of reality TV star Dorit Kemsley, is struggling to comprehend certain aspects of his wife’s post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following a home invasion. PK expressed his views during a recent episode of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” while discussing the severity of Dorit’s PTSD with a therapist.
“There are elements I understand. There are also elements that I don’t consider are PTSD –– I don’t. I consider they’re more obnoxious,” PK told Dorit.
The couple sat down with a therapist to discuss the impact of Dorit’s PTSD on their relationship, leading PK to question the blend of high maintenance behavior with PTSD.

Dorit has shared in the past how her marriage was affected by the lack of support she received after the traumatic home invasion. The couple is now facing the task of healing, making changes, and focusing on the best interests of their family.
