Ariana explained on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen" that her disclosure will not come as a shock to her parents, as she already told them about it.

She added that, despite the public's perception that it was just her mom taking money from her account, it was a joint effort between her parents. In her words:

"This was a joint partnership in taking the money. I gave my parents, though, a notice: I'm going to be telling my truth and my story, and this is what's happening."

While she cannot pinpoint the exact amount taken from her, she noted that her mother mostly demanded money from her to pay the bills or care for her siblings. Ariana explained that her sister, Brielle Biermann, also helps their parents with their finances, but Kim always pays back what she owes.

The influencer affirmed that their relationship with money has not changed how she feels about Kim, whom she called her "best friend forever." She emphasized that money should never be the reason a relationship goes sour.

"You can always make more money, and God blesses us in that way. I have my mom, and that's all that matters," Ariana concluded. Regarding her current relationship with her father, Ariana essentially reiterated her stance, declaring that he will always remain her dad, regardless of the challenging situation.

The 23-Year-Old Wished Her Parents Were Honest About The State Of Her Funds

Ariana admitted last month that she is dealing with the consequences of her parents' financial struggles, which stemmed from their mishandling of her finances.

As shared by The Blast, the influencer disclosed that she had started earning impressive sums of money from taking on Instagram deals as early as 14 years old. 

But she almost has nothing to show for the supposed bucks in her account because her parents kept the details to themselves.

She reportedly discovered two years ago that all her earnings had been withdrawn from her account, and the betrayal by her family left her feeling disappointed.

Ariana wished her parents had maintained transparency on the state of her finances and addressed her as an adult. The most painful realization for the reality star is that she is fully aware she is short of funds and on the verge of losing her home.

The whole episode with her parents also left a strain on her relationship with Hudson McLeroy, who was on board with her decision to cut Kim and Kroy off.

Kim And Kroy's Money Problems Reportedly Led To Their Marital Breakdown

Sources close to the estranged couple confirmed that their split had been in the works for a long time. Their property in Georgia was also at risk of foreclosure with an IRS tax debt of $1 million.

Kim withheld this information from her close friends, and she, along with Kroy, was reportedly burdened by the weight of their debt; as a result, their marriage suffered.

However, infidelity did not play any role in their separation, but when the news of their separation became public, their friends could not handle it. "They are a very tight-knit family, and this isn't easy for any of the children," the source revealed.

Three years after she was detained for her 2022 arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol. As seen on The Blast, she was arrested on charges of failure to obey signs, underage possession of alcohol, and many more.

By May 23, the internet personality pleaded guilty to careless driving, possession of drugs, and use of related substances. She was then sentenced to 24 months of probation with firm instructions to avoid alcohol, obey all rules, and ensure a regular meeting with her probation office.

If Ariana adheres to these rules, she will reportedly receive an early release from the rules and regulations. Ariana must also submit to random drug tests upon request from her probation officer or any law enforcement official. The reality star risks bagging a jail term if she refuses to adhere to the rules.

Ariana Biermann And Hudson McLeroy Are Completely Inseparable

Coupled with some things, one other thing that is going well in Ariana's life is her love life with Hudson. The couple began their relationship in 2018, following a difficult start a few days before Ariana's 17th birthday.

As shared by Bravo TV, the doting couple has since come a long way and even relocated to New York last year.

Ariana could not wait to share the good news on her social media. She expressed her satisfaction and excitement to share her new phase of life with her boyfriend and "favorite person in this world."

Almost a year later, the couple returned with an update on their plans to move to a larger apartment in the city. As always, Ariana updated fans on the move, bursting with positivity for their new beginning.
