In the end, it turned out that the ring had no meaning.
In the latest couple news from the Bravo universe, ex Real Housewives of Atlanta Star Kim Zolciak-Biermann has filed for divorce from former NFL player Kroy Biermann, according to TMZ. This bombshell came the same day as another report that the couple owed over $1 million in unpaid taxes to the IRS.
According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Zolciak-Biermann says their marriage “breakdown irreversibly with no hope of reconciliation.” She and her husband, who got married in 2011, have reportedly separated since April 30, she said.
The “Tardy For The Party” singer seeks joint legal custody as well as primary physical custody of the four children they share together. She also demands spousal support and the restoration of her maiden name, she.
Since we met in season 3 RHOAThe Biermanns have been one of Bravo’s most famous and long-standing couples. The two documented their marriage in the 2012 spin-off. Don’t be late for the weddinglater spawned the now canceled Bravo series Do not be late.
During their time on reality television, the couple’s finances were repeatedly questioned—including whether they could afford one of their former Georgia mansions. RHOA co-stars TMZ reported in February that massive country club properties were foreclosed on, which Zolciak’s daughters Ariana and Brielle Biermann denied.
However, the latest news about the couple struggling financially sounds less shocking. According to TMZ, the former Bravo stars “owe $1.1 million to the IRS for unpaid taxes, interest, and penalties from 2013, 2017, and 2018.” They’re also $15,000 behind in state taxes as of 2018, according to legal documents.
This is the latest dating scandal that shook the Bravo world after the news of “Scandoval” broke out in March. Real Housewives of Atlanta Cast member Drew Sidora also filed for divorce from husband Ralph Pittman that same month and sent the show back into production to catch the fallout.
Fittingly, Zolciak-Biermann will return RHOA later this season. No one can predict whether the typically escapist reality star will disclose any of his marital or financial struggles at the time of his reveal – but if one thing is for sure, Andy Cohen will have some answers.
