Kim Zolciak alleges Kroy Biermann physically abused their children and engaged in loud sexual activity while they were present, according to court documents filed June 4, 2026, and obtained by TMZ. The “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star claims Biermann threw one of their sons over a couch during an argument and that their kids “have reported on multiple occasions not seeing [Kroy] for hours on end, but hearing him engage in sexual acts with his girlfriend of the moment.” The allegations come amid a contentious divorce and custody battle that has seen the couple repeatedly split and reconcile since 2023.
Allegations of Abuse and Divorce Proceedings
Zolciak’s court filings detail what she describes as a pattern of reckless behavior by Biermann, including physical abuse and exposing their children to explicit sexual activity. She claims one of their sons was “sizeable for his age” but still a “kid,” and that the court-appointed guardian dismissed his complaints about the abuse. Zolciak asserts that the guardian recommended Biermann be awarded primary custody, a decision she disputes. She also shared a text message from one of Biermann’s “gal pals” to her boyfriend, Kyle Mowitz, stating, “I believe Kim. He is abusive. And his abuse is unlike any I’ve ever witnessed.”
Biermann, meanwhile, has accused Zolciak of neglecting their children, including missing court-ordered therapy sessions. He filed for divorce in May 2026, citing an “irretrievably broken” marriage, but Zolciak’s recent court documents argue that their “marital sexual relations on multiple occasions” since his second filing mean the marriage is “viable.” The couple, who married in 2011, initially split in 2023 but reconciled before Biermann refiled for divorce in August 2026. Zolciak’s legal team claims Biermann’s “resolve to see this divorce through to the end has not waivered,” though she insists they are still living together.
Custody Disputes and Financial Struggles
The custody battle has intensified as both parties seek to control the children’s living arrangements. Biermann’s attorney, Marlys A. Bergstrom, has argued that Zolciak’s “self-absorbed” behavior and “reckless spending habits” have left the family financially unstable. She noted that the couple owed over $1.1 million in unpaid taxes and that Biermann requested the immediate sale of their $3 million Georgia home, which is facing foreclosure for the second time. Zolciak, however, has refused to cooperate with the sale, claiming it would harm their children. Biermann’s legal team has also sought a temporary guardian to investigate Zolciak’s parenting, citing concerns about her “abusive” behavior in front of the kids.
Zolciak’s allegations of abuse and neglect have been met with skepticism from some quarters. A source close to the case told TMZ that the “abuse did not ‘leave marks,’” and that no professionals have raised alarms. Meanwhile, Biermann’s team has maintained that their relationship is “a constant yo-yo that never seems to end.” The couple’s four children—Kroy “KJ” Jr., Kash, and twins Kaia and Kane—remain at the center of the legal and emotional conflict, with each parent vying for control over their care.
Public Scrutiny and Legal Maneuvers
The couple’s high-profile divorce has drawn significant media attention, with outlets like TMZ and Page Six covering every twist. Zolciak has also faced criticism for her public statements, including claims on Instagram that they were “working” on their relationship despite Biermann’s repeated divorce filings. Biermann’s attorney, Bergstrom, has dismissed these claims, stating that there is “no reconciliation” and that the athlete is “determined to end the marriage.”
Legal experts note that the case highlights the complexities of high-net-worth divorces, where financial disputes often intertwine with custody battles. Zolciak’s refusal to sell the family home has forced Biermann to seek court intervention, while his allegations of neglect have been met with Zolciak’s counterclaims about his “abusive” behavior. The outcome could set a precedent for how courts handle cases involving blended families and contested custody, particularly when one parent is accused of exposing children to inappropriate behavior.
What Comes Next?
The next phase of the legal battle will likely focus on the court’s decision regarding custody and the sale of the family home. Zolciak’s team has emphasized that the children’s well-being should be the priority, while Biermann’s legal team argues that his petition is justified by the “irretrievable breakdown” of their marriage. The case also raises broader questions about how courts balance parental rights with the need to protect children from harmful environments.
As the proceedings unfold, the public will continue to scrutinize the couple’s actions, with media outlets and social platforms amplifying every development. For Zolciak and Biermann, the stakes are high—not just financially, but emotionally, as they navigate a divorce that has become a prolonged and deeply personal conflict.
“The abuse did not ‘leave marks,’” a source noted, encapsulating the challenges of proving emotional and psychological harm in court. For now, the case remains a tangled web of allegations, legal strategies, and the enduring human drama of a high-profile split.
