Kim Zolciak Loses Custody of Four Kids to Kroy Biermann Amid Ongoing Divorce Battle

Reality TV star Kim Zolciak, 47, is facing a challenging turn in her personal life as a Georgia judge has temporarily awarded custody of the four minor children she shares with estranged husband, former NFL player Kroy Biermann, 40. The ruling comes amid a bitter divorce that has spanned multiple years, with this being the second divorce filing from Kroy after a previous attempt to reconcile.

Kim, who has six children in total, has been criticized for inconsistent attendance at court-ordered parenting therapy sessions and weeks of absence from the country, prompting concerns about her ability to meet custody requirements.

“This accusations are completely false and nothing more than a deliberate attempt by Kroy to defame my character. I spent five weeks away working on two TV shows to support my family and make sure my children are cared for… I refuse to be bullied or have lies twisted into a narrative about who I am. I will not stay silent, the truth is on my side, and it will come to light,” Kim said regarding her estranged husband’s claims.

Kim has six children, including two daughters from previous relationships. Her eldest, Brielle Karenna, 29, and Ariana Lenee, 24, were legally adopted by Kroy Biermann and have established careers in modeling, entrepreneurship, and entertainment. The four minor children—Kroy Jagger Biermann (KJ), Kash Jade, and fraternal twins Kaia Rose and Kane Ren—are the focus of the custody ruling.

Custody Situation Updates

The judge’s decision requires Kim to complete four mandatory parenting therapy sessions before she can regain custody, with reunification earliest possible on April 13, 2026. Kroy Biermann currently has sole temporary custody, citing violations of previous custody agreements and concerns for the children’s well-being.

The situation remains fluid, with potential changes depending on Kim’s completion of court-mandated therapy and adherence to custody terms.
