'The Perfectionists' Addresses What Happened With Emison on Series Premiere

One of the biggest questions every Pretty Little Liars fan had when it was revealed that just Alison (Sasha Pieterse) would be headed to The Perfectionists, is what actually happened with her and Emily (Shay Mitchell)?

Well, we finally have an answer.

Almost immediately, we learned that trust was a big issue in the couple taking time apart from each other and Alison accepting the job offer at Beacon Heights University.

“Emily loves me. She just can’t get past the past,” she told Mona over pie. The couple are happy, but “then we’re not. It always comes back to trust.”

“We’ll explore that a little more [of what happened with the couple],” showrunner I. Marlene King shared with TVLine.

She adds, “When we left them, they were so happy. What would truly break them apart? When we looked back at the show, the one thing they always bumped up against was trust. [It wasn’t an easy decision, but since] we only had one member of that couple to bring to this show, [it was necessary].”
