Ariana Biermann Exposes Kim Zolciak for Buying Chanel Bags With Her Paycheck!

Ariana Biermann is opening up about the financial fallout within her famous family — and says she’s still dealing with the aftermath.

During a candid conversation on Gia Giudice’s Casual Chaos podcast this week, the Next Gen NYC star revealed that her mother, Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Kim Zolciak, used Ariana’s own money to buy her luxury gifts over the years.

“Every Chanel bag I have, I have never bought one on my own,” Ariana, 23, told Gia. “My mom has got them for me for Christmas with, apparently, my money. But I just didn’t know, so I guess I did buy one, I just was unaware of it.”

The Bravo alum, who is the adopted daughter of former NFL player Kroy Biermann, said that while public perception has often painted her and sister Brielle Biermann, 28, as reckless spenders, she’s always been budget-conscious.

“I’m like, ‘No, not quite. I was shopping at Shein,’” Ariana said, emphasizing that she keeps it affordable. “You can make anything great! The outfit I wore to the premiere [of Next Gen NYC] was $200 all around — the skirt and the corset and the scarf. With $800 shoes, but I love a shoe,” she joked.

The budding reality star also shared that she’s exhausted by the narrative that she should be financially responsible for her parents’ mounting bills. “I’m so tired of the narrative,” Ariana said. “I have and do [help pay bills], but it’s not my job.”

Ariana first discussed the financial tension during the debut episode of Next Gen NYC, where she claimed Kim and Kroy “took” the money she earned from years on reality television and social media endorsements.

“I don’t even know how much money I made over the time period,” she admitted on the show. “Nobody was honest, there was no transparency and I have no idea where it actually went.” Though she’s not angry, Ariana acknowledged that the ongoing situation has caused real stress — even within her romantic relationship with boyfriend Hudson McLeroy, whose father co-founded the fast-casual chain Zaxby’s.

“Sometimes I don’t tell Hudson when [Kim] is asking me for something because she’s going through this crazy divorce and living with four kids,” she said of her mom’s current struggles.

(Kim and Kroy also share sons KJ, 14, and Kash, 12, and twins Kaia and Kane, 11.) Despite the chaos, Ariana says she refuses to let money destroy her family. “Fighting over money is so stupid,” she told Gia. “God has blessed me. I can always make more and figure out a way no matter what.” Kim and Kroy filed for divorce in August 2023.

Since then, the former Falcons linebacker has alleged his estranged wife suffers from a gambling addiction that “financially devastated” the family, claiming she spent over $600,000 on luxury items between 2016 and 2023.

In February, the couple sold their Georgia mansion — for $3 million less than asking — after a lengthy foreclosure battle.
