Kim Zolciak’s daughter Ariana enjoys luxury vacation in Bahamas… after claiming mom ‘took’ her money

Kim Zolciak’s daughter Ariana Biermann has been enjoying a luxury vacation in the sun-drenched Bahamas this month.

The nepo kid has been posting string bikini pinup photos while on the beach as she enjoys some fun away from her home state of Georgia.

The younger sister of Brielle Biermann looked to be having the time of her life as she was nicely made up with her long light brown hair worn down over her bare shoulders.

It appeared as if the 23-year-old influencer did not have a problem in the world.

But Ariana has recently complained about financial problems that were caused by her Real Housewives of Atlanta mother.

In late June The Next Gen NYC star gave some insight into the money she lent her mother Kim.

Ariana said it was used for mom’s bad habits.

Ariana said during a visit to Watch What Happens Live: ‘I’m going to be telling my truth and my story, and this is what’s happening,’ she said.

But it was not just her mom who took her cash. 

‘I would like to very much clarify. Everybody wants this to be just my mother. This was a joint partnership in taking the money,’ Ariana said.

She added that she gave Kim, 47, and her estranged husband Kroy Biermann notice that she would be discussing the topic on Next Gen NYC.

Andy Cohen asked Ariana if she had ‘figured out how much money’ her parents spent. 

‘No, and I don’t really want to know,’ Ariana replied, explaining that ‘the only time my mom asks me for money is if it’s regarding the bills or it’s something that she needs for the kids.’

Later in the episode, Cohen asked Ariana what the biggest misconception about Kim and Kroy’s relationship is.

‘Well, for some reason right now everyone thinks they’re getting back together,’ she said. ‘Which is absolutely insane.’

And she made it clear that Kim would pay her back when she gets back on her feet. 

Earlier in June, Ariana dropped a bombshell on the premiere episode of her new reality show, Bravo’s Next Gen NYC, claiming her mother and stepfather Kroy Biermann spent all of her hard-earned money.

The influencer revealed she started making significant income from brand deals and sponsored social media posts as early as age 14—but alleges her parents wiped it out.

‘I was doing like three posts a week and you get paid astronomical [sic] 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.

Now Ariana is adding fuel to the fire, saying she discovered her money was ‘gone two years ago.’

‘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 that the ongoing family drama has taken a toll on her relationship with boyfriend Hudson McLeroy—particularly when her mom reaches out for financial help.

‘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,’ she admitted in a confessional.

‘I get it and I never want money to destroy the relationship with my family,’ she added.

Kim and Kroy met in 2010 and married in 2011.

Zolciak and Biermann have four children: Kroy Jr., 14; Kash, 12; and twins Kane and Kaia, 11.

Biermann adopted Zolciak’s older children from previous relationships — Brielle, 28, and Ariana — when they were minors in the couple’s earlier years.

Their relationship took a turn in 2023 with divorce filings and legal battles, with Kroy filing for divorce for a third time in February 2025
