“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kim Zolciak and her estranged husband, Kroy Biermann, have been going through a messy divorce since 2023, but they are moving on in their personal lives.
In May, Biermann – a former Atlanta Falcons football player – filed for divorce from the reality star after nearly 12 years of marriage. Zolciak countered with her own divorce petition filed hours after his, but the couple briefly reconciled until he refiled in August of that same year.
Biermann was seeking sole legal and physical custody of their four children: Kroy, Kash, and twins Kaia and Kane. Biermann adopted Zolciak’s adult daughters from a previous relationship, Brielle and Ariana Zolciak-Biermann.
The couple married in grand fashion with a spin-off show highlighting their November 2011 nuptials. They then received their own family-focused program based on their rowdy antics, “Don’t Be Tardy.”
Over the last two years, the couple’s divorce proceedings have turned messy. There have been accusations of drug use, unfit parenting and financial issues.
In June, Zolciak’s daughter said she would “pray literally every night” for her parents to get back together.
“I think at this point though, unfortunately, there is too much damage to be done,” Ariana Biermann said on Gia Guidice’s podcast, “Casual Chaos.”
Ariana mentioned at some point “we’re all gonna have to go to court and give our testimonies and witness statements and everything. And it’s just the most insane thing ever.”
She admitted that her parents’ divorce has made her become closer to her mom and older sister, Brielle.
“This whole situation of everything brought me and my mom and my sister closer. And we’re kind of like the three best friends, which I’m really grateful for,” Ariana said.
Now, it appears that Kim and Kroy are making moves in their personal lives two years after initially filing to end their union.
Biermann has ditched the professional athlete life to take on a career in sales. The Superior Rigging and Erecting Co. in Atlanta lists Biermann as an employee in crane and rigging sales.
“I’m forever grateful and blessed to have so many amazing humans in my life. 2025 has been incredible already. I can’t believe I’m 47! Funny how old that seemed when I was 27! I feel the best I have in years and honestly, I had no idea what peace was until this past year,” she captioned her post at the time.
Zolciak appears to have also rekindled her relationship with her parents post-separation from Biermann.
On July 21, Kim’s daughter, Brielle, posted a picture to her Instagram story with her mom and her grandparents, Karen and Joe.
“Nana & poppy!!!!!!!!!” Brielle captioned the photo along with a heart emoji. “Been WAY too long!”
In 2017, Zolciak explained why she hadn’t spoken to her parents in years. “I have not seen my parents in over six years.
“They recently just sold another ‘story’ to a tabloid, which is one of the reasons why I stopped communicating with them in the first place. I learned some people never change,” she said on “The Daily Dish” at the time.
During the interview, she explained that she never discouraged her oldest daughters from having a relationship with her grandparents.
“I will never discourage Brielle or Ariana or any of them to not have a relationship with their grandparents or whoever they choose to have a relationship with,” she said at the time.
