Kim Zolciak responds to daughter's claim that she took money from her

Ryan Brennan | August 1, 2025

Kim Zolciak dropped a major “truth bomb” about the money she allegedly “took” from her daughter. 

The 47-year-old reality star, best known for her time on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” appeared on the July 31 episode of Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live” with host Andy Cohen. 

And Cohen didn’t hesitate to ask about her daughter Ariana’s recent accusations.

“Ariana revealed on ‘Next Gen’ that you and Kroy (Zolciak’s estranged husband) spent all of her money that she earned as a child,” Cohen said at the start of his “The Truth Bomb” segment. 

“Can you reveal how much money it was and what it was spent on?” Cohen asked Zolciak. 

Zolciak, who shares Ariana with Kroy Biermann, went on to confirm that she did spend her daughter’s money to help keep the family afloat following the couple’s split in 2023. 

“Actually, the rug was pulled out from the Zolciaks,” she explained. “Yeah, I mean Ariana’s money was spent on bills, to be honest. I was left holding the bag for the family.” 

As Zolciak made the claim, cameras panned to her daughter Ariana, who was in the audience.

Zolciak also claimed that her other daughter, Brielle, whom she also shares with Biermann, helped pay “an electric bill here and there.” 

“I was left with nothing. So, I had to figure it out fast,” she said of the former couple’s split while clarifying that she had to be “careful” due to the ongoing divorce proceedings. 

Cohen then asked if her daughters would be reimbursed. 

“Yes, the money I borrowed from Ariana, I paid her back,” Zolciak said of the money that went towards the family’s bills.

“As far as what she has made and all of that stuff, I don’t have the spreadsheets, but she will be,” she added. 

Ariana accused Zolciak of taking her money on ‘Next Gen NYC’

Zolciak’s comments come nearly two months after Ariana alleged that her parents “took (her) money” during the premiere of “Next Gen NYC,” a reality show that Ariana stars in. 

“I started posting on Instagram. I got my first brand deal when I was 14,” the 23-year-old said on the June 3 episode, per Bravo TV

Ariana revealed that she was posting three times per week and clarified that you can earn “astronomical” amounts for a Story or Instagram post. 

“I made quite a bit of money,” she explained. “Unfortunately, my parents took my money.” 

Ariana went on to explain that she had no idea what the money was spent on and only found out it was gone two years ago. 

“I don’t even know how much money I made over the time period. Nobody was honest. There was no transparency. And I have no idea where it actually went,” she said in June. 

Zolciak welcomed Ariana and Brielle into the world more than a decade before she met her future husband, according to People

She married Kroy Biermann in 2011, at which point he filed to adopt her two daughters. Ariana and Brielle legally changed their last name to Biermann two years later. 

The couple went on to welcome four children of their own — Kroy Jr., 14, Kash, 12, and twins Kaia and Kane, 11 — before filing for divorce three times in 2023 and 2024.
