Another insider close to Hilton told PEOPLE that those in the star’s inner circle had a feeling thather relationship with Zylka wasn’t meant-to-be.

Although Hilton previously told PEOPLE she and Zylkahad pushed their nuptials to 2019due to their busy work lives, the couple never rescheduled.
“They postponed the 11/11 date without a new date,” the insider said.
Hilton told PEOPLE in Aug. 2018 about pushing her initial Nov. 11 wedding date back to sometime in 2019 after the couple’s schedules got too hectic. “The 11/11 thing was never a set date,” the reality star said. “It was just, 11/11 is something I love because I always say, ’11:11, make a wish for good luck.’ So Chris was like, ‘Oh let’s do it on 11/11. That’s such a special number for you.’”

Ultimately, Hilton said the wedding was something she and Zylka didn’t want to rush into. “We’re both just working so much and decided it would be much better just to push it to next year,” she said. “With all the planning I want it to be perfect and you can’t rush something like this.”
