Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann Relationship: Are They Divorced?

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann’s relationship has been anything but simple. From the moment they met at a charity event in 2010, their love story seemed straight out of a movie.

Fast forward to 2011, and the couple was married in a lavish ceremony that was filmed for Zolciak’s reality show Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding. Everything seemed picture-perfect for a while—until things got messy.

Over the years, their relationship has had its ups and downs, but nothing could prepare fans for the drama that unfolded in 2023. After 12 years of marriage, Zolciak and Biermann filed for divorce twice in the same year.

The twists kept coming, and just when it looked like they might reconcile, more legal filings, public tension, and even police involvement made it clear that their marriage was far from smooth.

When Did Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann Meet?

It was May 2010, and both Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann were at a charity event for Dancing Stars of Atlanta. The TV personality was there to support her friend and Real Housewives costar, Shereé Whitfield, who was dancing in the competition. Biermann, a professional football player at the time, was competing on the show.

The two locked eyes that night, and the chemistry was instant. It wasn’t long before they were texting, making plans, and the rest, as they say, is history. Their first meeting was even caught on camera for Real Housewives of Atlanta, so fans got to watch the sparks fly in real-time. From the start, it was clear this wasn’t just a fling—it was the beginning of something big.

When Did Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann Marry?

Things moved quickly between Biermann and Zolciak. Just months after meeting, Zolciak confirmed their engagement in October 2011, and by November, they were married. Their wedding wasn’t just a private affair—it was televised on her own reality show, Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding.

The couple tied the knot on November 11, 2011—an easy-to-remember date, but also one that felt like a lucky charm for their marriage. According to PEOPLE, Zolciak tweeted about her excitement, saying:

Beautiful weather! Beautiful day!! I’m walking on a cloud and I’m so grateful.

While Biermann wrote:

Thank u everyone 4 your early congrats and best wishes!!! @Kimzolciak has made me the happiest man alive!!! 11.11.11.” wrote Kroy on their special day, to which Kim added, “I love u.

Everything seemed perfect—the dress, the guests, the ceremony—it all played out like a fairytale. But as we all know, things don’t always stay perfect for long, and this would turn out to be just the beginning of their rocky road.

How Many Kids Do Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann Have?

Zolciak and Biermann didn’t waste any time growing their family. Their first child together, Kroy “KJ” Jagger Jr., was born in May 2011, just months before they got engaged. Zolciak already had two daughters, Brielle and Ariana, from previous relationship (the identity of their biological father has never been revealed to the public).

Biermann quickly stepped in as a father figure to her girls, and in 2013, he officially adopted them. The girls love Biermann too. Brielle expressed her love for the football linebacker in an Instagram post in 2021, writing:

Really blessed with the best dad in the world. it takes a real man to show up and show out the way he did for me & Ariana (he’s obviously a wonderful father to the littles and an INCREDIBLE husband to my mom also!) i lovee youuuu dad! THANK YOU ALWAYS.

Then, just a few years later, in 2013, Zolciak and Biermann welcomed twins—Kaia Rose and Kane Ren—making their family even bigger. She also shared her excitement on Instagram, writing:

Guess what?!!! The TWINS have arrived!. We welcomed first a baby girl and second a handsome little boy. They are both healthy, and Kroy and I are so thankful!!

So, in total, they have four kids: KJ, Kash, Kaia, and Kane. It seemed like a picture-perfect family—two boys, two girls, and all the love. But the road to happiness wasn’t always as smooth as it seemed. With so many kids and a busy life, things started to get complicated. Still, the couple’s focus on family remained a big part of their story.

When Did Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann Divorce?

Here’s where things really started to heat up. In May 2023, Zolciak and Biermann shocked everyone by filing for divorce. Zolciak filed on May 8, while Biermann filed three days earlier. Both cited that their marriage was “irretrievably broken with no hope of reconciliation,” and it seemed like their 12-year relationship was coming to an end.

At that point, things looked like they were over for good. But then, in July 2023, just two months later, they shocked fans again by calling off their divorce. As PEOPLE reported, they were working things out “for the kids,” and it seemed like they might actually make it work.

But not even two months later, in August 2023, Biermann filed for divorce again, saying that their marriage was beyond repair. Zolciak fought back, claiming that their marriage wasn’t over and that they had even been intimate since the first filing.

By November 2023, they were hinting that they might be trying to reconcile, with Zolciak even changing her Instagram name back to Kim Zolciak Biermann. However, the court has ordered them to attend mediation by January 2024 to settle their divorce, and there’s still a lot to work out.

In May 2024, things took a darker turn when Zolciak called the cops on Biermann for allegedly violating a court order. It’s clear that the couple’s divorce saga is far from over.
