Kim Zolciak Dishes on the New Man She’s Dating: “I’m Really Happy”

Kim Zolciak hasn’t given up on love.
Two years after separating from her husband, Kroy Biermann, The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum confirmed she was back in the dating scene and seeing someone special. Kim dropped the news while speaking to TMZ last week, the same day she shared an emotional update on her divorce.

“Do you have the urge to get out and start mingling again,” the camera operator asked Kim at LAX.
“I’m really happy, very happy,” she responded, before clarifying she was dating “one person.”

Kim shares details on her special someone
The Don’t Be Tardy mom declined to identify the potential suitor but shared some interesting details about his life. Kim said the individual was “age-appropriate” and not a former athlete. She also confirmed he lived in Atlanta and wasn’t in the entertainment industry, which suggests the mystery man was not Chet Hanks.

Kim and Chet have faced dating rumors since the summer of 2024 when they both appeared on a reality TV show. The pair had several flirty exchanges and have remained quite close over the past year; however, they’ve consistently played coy when pressed about their relationship status.

“I’m just dating,” Kim continued. “I was in the house with the kids and now I’m out… I’m just happy. I have my kids, I’m in my new house. I’m working.”

“New man,” the camera operator interjected. “You got a whole new life.”

“I wouldn’t say [I’ve got] a new man,” Kim said. “But I’m definitely happy, for sure. My kids are happy, happier. I try to make it joyful [for them]. We try to do fun things.”

Kim shared the love life update nearly two months after she and Kroy sold their 9,500-square-foot Georgia home for $2.75 million. The Atlanta mom reacted to the move in a March 11 Instagram Story featuring a black-and-white photo of her and her estranged husband.

After exchanging “I dos” in 2011, Kim and Kroy welcomed four children together: Kroy Jagger “KJ” Biermann, Kash Biermann, Kane Biermann, and Kaia Biermann. Kroy also adopted Kim’s oldest daughters, Brielle Biermann and Ariana Biermann in 2013. The latter daughter spoke candidly about her parents’ split in a December 2024 TikTok video, explaining how the situation affected her views on marriage.

“You know when you’re younger, like 10, and you think about divorce… You’re like, ‘Oh my God, two Christmases, two vacations, two birthday gifts, fun time, extra food on Thanksgiving… What a fun time,” she said. “And then you grow up, and then you’re an adult, and then it actually happens. And then you’re like, ‘Oh sh-t. Divorce f-cking sucks… And then you think to yourself, ‘Do I want to get married? Because does that just make things complicated?’ Then you think, ‘Yeah I do. Yeah but no. I don’t know.”
