Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann’s split after 11 years of marriage is turning very contentious.

On Tuesday TMZ reported that the 44-year-old reality TV star and the 37-year-old former football player are already battling it out over who gets what.

The site claimed that both want sole custody of their children. 

Together the Georgia-based couple have four children Kroy Jagger (KJ), 11, Kash, 10, and twins Kaia and Kane, nine. She also has two adults daughters, Brielle and Ariana, with an ex. 

And it was also claimed that Montana native Kroy wants to keep their $2.5M sprawling seven bedroom mansion in Alpharetta, Georgia, even though it is reportedly in foreclosure as they owe $1.1M in unpaid taxes.

And Kroy has asked that Kim move out immediately. TMZ claimed earlier on Tuesday that they are both still living in the house even though they have split.

Asking for sole custody is an unusual move as exes often request joint custody to make the divorce smoother. 

Kroy has asked for sole legal and physical custody. Kim wants sole physical custody with visitation for Kroy. 

The cause for divorce appears to be financial as they are over $1M in the hole and pointing fingers.

Kim and Kroy allegedly did not pay taxes in 2013, 2017 and 2018. The reality stars also reportedly owe the state of Georgia $15,000 in unpaid taxes from 2018.

TMZ earlier claimed that Kroy asked in his divorce petition that Kim must ‘maintain all financial documents including all income records, tax records, expense records and more,’ said the site.

They also both seem to want to end their marriage. Kim filed over the weekend, and Kroy filed on Monday.

Her paperwork said the marriage is ‘irretrievably broken with no hope of reconciliation,’ the outlet noted.

The outlet also reported that she requested spousal support. Kim also asked for her maiden name be restored legally.

Apparently, the split has been in the works for a while. 

People claimed that Kim had been planning to split from Kroy for ‘a long time,’ and did not tell anyone, even family or friends.

‘The money has been a huge issue. The million dollar tax [payment] was just way too much pressure on them,’ the source said.

Adding: ‘There’s no cheating on either side. The money has a lot to do with the split, but there were other factors. He’s managing [the family] for a long time, so he technically did have a job. They’re not on good terms right now.’

Kim and the former Atlanta Falcons NFL star first met in 2010 after crossing paths at the Dancing With Atlanta Stars charity event.  They tied the knot one year later in November 11, 2011. 

Once married, Kroy also legally adopted Kim’s daughters from her previous relationships, Brielle, 26, and also Ariana, 21, whom the reality star shares with ex-husband, Daniel Toce.

The TV personality and the former professional NFL player initially bought the home for $880,000 back in 2012.

Their property is now priced between $2.5 and $2.6 million, according to the outlet.

The lavish estate has been featured on both the Real Housewives and Kim’s own reality show titled, Don’t Be Tardy, which aired for a total of eight seasons.

When they were in love: The outlet reported that Kim listed their separation date as April 30

Truist Bank has been asked to deal with the foreclosure of the house, and action had reportedly begun to take place back in August when the couple defaulted on their $1.65 million mortgage.

According to TMZ, the five bedroom and six and a half bathroom mansion sits comfortably near the 18th hole of the Manor Golf and Country Club located just north of the bustling city of Atlanta.

The front of the home has a spacious circular driveway and has an inviting appeal with stunning brickwork on the exterior.

On her own reality show, Don’t Be Tardy, which first aired back in 2012 with the original title of Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding, Kim gave a tour of the mansion.

The 6,900 square foot home also contains a swimming pool with a hot tub, a waterfall spa, a basketball court, and a built-in elevator.
