Recently Pussycat Doll band member Carmit Bachar, said that it was Nicole Scherzinger‘s battle with bulimia AND her solo career ambitions that were the main reasons behind the split.

The first ever time Nicole talked about her bulimia was in 2012 so unless she told the other girl about her troubles they would not have know until the world found out last year.

This is what the redhead had to say:

“It’s quite scary but obviously that can affect you deeply, emotionally obviously there are things there that need to be dealt with too but we were working so hard so we didn’t think.
I might be stupid and oblivious to things, but I didn’t see any of [the eating disorder]. Obviously people who have disorders like that are very good at hiding it. I feel stupid though not knowing. We were so close and I was shocked. I thought how could you hide that? We would go out together, go to dinners, label dinners, and we’d all eat and I mean when do you have time to do that? I don’t understand it.”

Then she went on in talking about Nicole’s self-propelled push into the spotlight:

“She’s ambitious and she’s driven and she wanted to have her solo career. We were made very aware of that. I was never thinking about a lead, to me a group is a group, so I thought it was gonna be more of like all of us. We didn’t think it was going to veer to being as much of Nicole as it did. We thought of her as being the lead vocalist and spearheading the situation but then it really became a separation between us.”
