What Happened to Kim Zolciak-Biermann?

Kim Zolciak-Biermann's public life has been significantly impacted by a series of financial and marital difficulties since 2023. Her marriage to former NFL player Kroy Biermann, which began in 2011, became a focal point of media attention with their initial divorce filing in May 2023. This was followed by a brief reconciliation, only for Kroy to refile in August 2023, citing the marriage as 'irretrievably broken.' The divorce proceedings have been contentious, involving accusations of financial mismanagement, gambling problems, and even physical violence and infidelity from both sides.

A major turning point was the couple's escalating financial woes. Their Alpharetta, Georgia mansion, purchased for $800,000 in 2012, faced multiple foreclosure threats. Despite attempts to sell the property, which was initially listed for $6 million in October 2023 and subsequently reduced, they failed to find a buyer to prevent the auction. The home was eventually sold for $2.75 million in January 2025, significantly below their original asking price. The situation culminated in April 2025 when US Marshals were dispatched to forcibly remove Kim and Kroy from the foreclosed property, as the new owners initiated legal eviction.

Beyond the mansion, Zolciak-Biermann has accumulated substantial debt. Reports indicate she and Kroy owed over $1.1 million in federal taxes for the years 2013, 2017, and 2018, with a new six-figure tax bill reported in December 2025. She also faced hundreds of thousands in credit card debt and significant attorney fees from the divorce, leading to liens being placed against their former home. In a revealing moment on 'Next Gen NYC' in June 2025, her daughter Ariana Biermann disclosed that Kim and Kroy had used her childhood earnings to cover household bills, a claim Kim later confirmed, citing desperation.

Despite the personal and financial turmoil, Zolciak-Biermann has begun to re-engage with her career. After a brief cameo on 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Season 15, she confirmed in January 2026 her participation in 'Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th,' marking a more substantial return to Bravo. Additionally, in March 2026, it was reported she joined the cast of Netflix's 'Squid Game: The VIP Challenge.' As of March 2026, Kim is reportedly living in a new rental home in Atlanta with her younger children. She has also been dating entrepreneur Kyle Mowitz since early 2025, though he is also reportedly in the midst of his own divorce. Her divorce from Kroy Biermann, despite a dismissal filing in February 2025, appears to be ongoing, with Kim stating in November 2025 that Kroy would 'never give me a divorce' and alleging he cheated. Her daughter Brielle Biermann also hinted at estrangement from Kroy in March 2026.
