“Real Housewives of Atlanta” alum Kim Zolciak has been embroiled in a custody dispute with her estranged husband, Kroy Biermann. Now, after previously having her parental rights limited, she has temporarily lost primary physical custody. This comes years after the couple initially filed for divorce in 2023.

Additionally, Zolciak is set to testify in her boyfriend’s divorce hearing, following reports that Biermann warned the woman about the “RHOA” alum.

Kim Zolciak Has Lost Custody Again

According to TMZ, a judge has issued a ruling on Biermann’s previous emergency motion. He now has primary physical custody of the four minor children. Per the ruling, Zolciak will have limited parental time with them on every other weekend.

However, the estranged couple will continue to share joint legal custody of the kids. Still, Biermann will have the authority to make decisions about their education, religion, and non-emergency medical situations.

As the outlet highlights, Zolciak saw her custody rights limited in April. However, they were reinstated after she completed court-ordered therapy.

Kroy Biermann Accused Kim Zolciak Of Neglect

TMZ obtained court documents in April 2026 that showed Biermann had filed an emergency motion seeking primary custody. This came as the parenting plan they had in place saw both parents with two of the kids before essentially swapping. According to Biermann, “The children were rarely together as a group under this parenting plan.”

Additionally, the former NFL player claimed that Zolciak “acts in ways that are harmful to the children and contrary to their best interests.” He also accused her of being “both unstable and unfit,” and said she “is more selfishly concerned with her own image and her work options than with the opinions of experts and/or the best interest of the children.”

Biermann added, “This constitutes neglect of the minor children and is harmful to the progress and healing of the family unit.”

Kim Says The Judge’s Ruling Is Temporary

Zolciak issued a statement to TMZ regarding her loss of primary physical custody. The “RHOA” alum said, “The judge’s decision … is temporary until our return court date on May 21st, when we will have the opportunity for a full hearing.”

She added, “While I want this process to be over for my children more than anything, I am looking forward to our court date on May 21st when we will finally be provided with an opportunity to present the truth.”

‘RHOA’ Fans Want The Best For The Kids

Zolciak and Biermann have been embroiled in their divorce drama since 2023. For “RHOA” fans, the worst part is that the children are in the middle. One person on X reacted, writing, “Kim losing primary custody even temporarily is a big shift. Divorce battles are ugly, but kids shouldn’t be pawns. Hope they sort it out privately.”

Someone mentioned the duration of their divorce, saying, “This is the longest divorce ever..Where is Victor Newman, and flying to the DR to get a quick divorce like on Y&R?”

A different person wrote, “Wow, Kim temporarily losing primary custody to Kroy is wild even if it’s just for now. These high-profile splits always remind me how fast things can flip when stability for the kids is on the line. Hope they both put the little ones first moving forward. What do you think will happen at the May hearing?”

Lastly, another social media user speculated, “She’s not a bad mother. She’s just a compulsive spend-a-holic.”

Kim Zolciak Is Dating

Zolciak isn’t legally divorced from Biermann, and it’s unclear how much longer the process will take. However, in the meantime, the “RHOA” alum reportedly began dating Kyle Mowitz in the spring of 2025. Later in the year, they were spotted together, and on one occasion, she was seen leaving his home.

However, it’s also worth noting that Mowitz is currently going through a reported $100 million divorce from his wife, Jillian Green. Per Reality Tea, Green subpoenaed Zolciak on September 30 for questioning. Specifically, she was served the paperwork while waiting in the parking lot of her son’s high school.

Per the report, Zolciak will face questions about any financial assistance Mowitz has provided. This includes gifts, money, or loans. Additionally, she’s being asked to reveal all correspondence with him. Zolciak will also be required to hand over any supporting documentation for gifts.

Per US Weekly, a transcript from Green’s deposition shows that Biermann spoke to her about Zolciak and Mowitz. She stated that Biermann had called her about “Kyle and Kim’s involvement and his concern,” and that Zolciak would “financially … drain money from Kyle.”

He is also said to have shown Green proof that Zolciak had used resources provided by Mowitz.
