daughter Ariana Biermann has claimed her mother and stepfather Kroy Biermann have spent all of her hard-earned money.
The influencer, 23, made the claim on the first episode of her new Bravo reality TV show Next Gen NYC on Tuesday.
She said she started making significant income from brand deals and sponsored social media posts aged as young as 14, but claimed her parents wiped it out.
'I was doing like three posts a week and you get paid astronomical to do a story or to do an Instagram post, and I made quite a bit of money,' she said. 'But, unfortunately, my parents took my money.'
Since filing to end their nearly 12-year marriage in May 2023, Kim and Kroy have been embroiled in a nasty legal battle over their Georgia mansion, custody of their four minor children, and financial support—with Kroy previously accusing Kim of gambling away $1.5 million.
But now Ariana is adding fuel to the fire, saying she discovered her money was 'gone two years ago.'
She added: 'I don't even know how much money I made over the time period,' the reality star admitted. 'Nobody was honest, there was no transparency and I have no idea where it actually went.'
She added that she 'can't say exactly' what her parents spent it on.
Ariana also revealed the ongoing family drama has taken a toll on her relationship with boyfriend Hudson McLeroy, especially when when her mom reaches out for financial help.
She admitted in a confessional: 'Sometimes I don't tell Hudson when she's asking me for something because she' going through this crazy divorce and living with four kids.
'I get it and I never want money to destroy the relationship with my family.'
Money woes have loomed large over Kim and Kroy's unraveling marriage.
After filing for divorce, Kroy accused the reality TV star of a severe gambling problem that he claimed left their family in financial ruin.
According to court filings, he alleged Kim blew through more than $600,000 on luxury shopping sprees over a seven-year span, frequenting high-end retailers like Neiman Marcus, Chanel, and Saks.
The financial pressure only escalated when their Georgia mansion—once listed at a far higher price—lingered on the market for over 18 months.
In February, the troubled property finally sold, but at a steep $3 million discount, following months of foreclosure threats.
Ariana's claim comes almost a week after Kim faced fresh backlash after promoting an online casino — despite ongoing claims that her gambling habit helped tank her family's finances.
The accusations about Kim's gambling losses were seen in a 2023 Milton Police Department bodycam video after officers responded to the home after Kim reported a domestic dispute.
During the police visit, Kroy told police that the Don't Be Tardy alum 'has decimated everything' with her penchant for gambling; he added that some of her gaming activity was illegal.
Zolciak and Biermann's four kids - Kroy Jr., 15, Kash, 14, and twins Kane and Kaia, 12 - were at home at the time of the altercation.
(Biermann had adopted Zolciak's older children from previous relationships - Brielle, 28, and Ariana - when they were minors in the couple's earlier years.)
Ariana's bombshell financial claim also comes after she finally received her sentencing following her 2022 DUI arrest.
The media personality was involved in a 'minor fender bender' at the time - but denied that she had been drinking leading up to the incident. However, she admitted to using a marijuana vape the night before.
A hearing recently took place on May 23 amid her criminal case and she entered a plea deal - with charges officially being dropped, according to InTouch Weekly, which was the first to report the news.
She pleaded guilty to both reckless driving as well as possession and use of a drug-related object.
However, the star will have to serve 24 months on probation and if she commits any violations, Ariana could possibly serve time in jail.
