BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Dr Paul Nassif from the 'Botched' fame and Adrienne Maloof, a Beverly Hills couple, exchanged vows in 2002, but their union faced its share of challenges. A decade later, the couple decided to part ways, finalizing their divorce in November 2012 through a settlement agreement.

The divorce proceedings were notably contentious, with Adrienne making accusations of physical abuse against Paul. However, in more recent times, the exes appear to have moved towards an amicable relationship.

Reflecting on his experience on 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills', Dr Nassif believed that being on the reality show accelerated the downfall of his marriage with Adrienne Maloof.

When questioned about the possibility of joining the reality show again, Dr Nassif expressed reservations to ENews. He stated, "I don't think I'd ever do something like that again, especially if you look at my background with this."

The doctor appeared on the Bravo reality show during its first three seasons, coinciding with Maloof's tenure as a main cast member.

He emphasized that letting cameras document their lives played a role in expediting the end of their marriage.

How many kids do Dr Paul Nassif and Adrienne Maloof have?

On May 2, 2002, Paul Nassif married Adrienne Maloof, a prominent businesswoman from the Maloof family. The couple embraced parenthood with the birth of three sons: Gavin, Colin, and Christian.

Their residence was situated in the opulent neighborhood of Beverly Hills, California. While both Maloof and Paul Nassif maintain a relatively private approach regarding their children on social media, occasional glimpses, like a photo shared by Maloof in March 2023 after attending a family wedding together, offer fans a rare insight into their family life.

Are Dr Paul Nassif and Adrienne Maloof still friends?

Despite the end of their romantic relationship, Paul Nassif and Adrienne Maloof maintain a strong and supportive connection as they navigate co-parenting their three boys.

Who has Dr Paul Nassif married now?

After divorcing Maloof in 2012, Dr Nassif embarked on a new chapter in his love life, finding happiness with his second wife, Brittany Pattakos.

A medical professional herself, specializing in CoolSculpting and working as a medical assistant, Pattakos shares Nassif's passion for the healthcare field.

The couple, who tied the knot in a luxurious LA ceremony in September 2019, celebrated further with a reception in Greece the following month.

Adding to their joy, the couple welcomed their daughter, Paulina, in 2020.

Despite Nassif's previous experience with reality TV on 'RHOBH', he clarified that a Bravo comeback was not on the cards for him and his wife, and that they were  focusing instead on their family and profession.
