In a dramatic escalation of their ongoing divorce proceedings, former NFL player Kroy Biermann has filed court documents accusing his estranged wife, "Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum Kim Zolciak, of neglecting their four minor children. Biermann is seeking permanent physical and legal custody, alleging that Zolciak's actions are "harmful to the children and contrary to their best interests."
According to the legal filing, Biermann claims the current custody arrangement—which splits the children between the two parents in rotating pairs—is detrimental. "The children were rarely together as a group under this parenting plan," he stated, arguing that all four siblings should reside together under one roof.
Biermann's allegations include claims that Zolciak is "both unstable and unfit" as a parent, suggesting she prioritizes her public image and career opportunities over the children's welfare. "This constitutes neglect of the minor children and is harmful to the progress and healing of the family unit," the documents assert.
The filing comes shortly after Zolciak recently regained custody rights following a temporary suspension earlier this month. That suspension was lifted after she completed court-ordered therapy sessions—four sessions over seven days—as previously reported.
Zolciak's legal team has fired back vehemently against the accusations. Her attorney told media outlets, "[Kroy's] decision to file this motion lacks factual support and is unwarranted. We will address these claims in the proper legal forum and will vigorously defend the truth in court, rather than through public discourse."
The bitter custody battle continues to unfold as both parties prepare for their next court appearance, with the children's wellbeing at the center of the contentious legal dispute.
