“They thought dismissing the divorce would protect them — but the marshals showed up anyway.”
In a dramatic and humiliating turn of events, Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Kim Zolciak and her husband Kroy Biermann were officially removed from their once-luxurious Georgia mansion just 72 hours after jointly filing to dismiss their high-profile divorce case. The timeline — and the timing — couldn’t be more jarring.
The now-estranged couple had been embroiled in a bitter and chaotic divorce saga for over a year, filled with allegations of violence, mental instability, and financial ruin. But on February 21st, 2025, Kim and Kroy filed joint paperwork to dismiss their divorce, shocking fans and legal observers alike. Just three days later, on April 8th, four deputy marshals arrived at the Milton property — and by 6:45 p.m., Kim and Kroy were officially ejected from the home.
According to court records obtained by DailyMail+, the couple had already lost the home in a foreclosure auction in December 2024, and the new owners had been fighting for possession ever since. Despite that, Kim and Kroy remained in the home well past the allowed time, even as legal threats mounted. By mid-March, the owners had filed multiple notices to remove the pair, citing that Kim and Kroy were “holding over” beyond the lease terms — effectively squatting in a house they no longer owned.
Insiders say Kim believed that staying married might legally complicate the eviction, or at the very least, buy them more time. “She thought if they were seen as a united household, maybe the judge would delay action,” one source close to the couple told DailyMail+. “She was playing chess — but the bank was playing checkmate.”
This theory is bolstered by a flurry of legal filings in the days before their removal. On February 18th — just three days before the divorce dismissal — Kim had accused Kroy of suffering from possible brain damage (CTE) and exhibiting violent outbursts toward both her and their children. She requested a psychological evaluation and raised serious concerns about the children’s safety. Yet, on February 21st, those accusations were suddenly silenced with the divorce dismissal.
“It made no sense,” one Bravo insider shared. “Why would you call your husband dangerous and mentally unstable on Monday, then decide to stay married to him by Thursday?”
The answer may not be about love — but leverage.
Sources familiar with the property case say Kim and Kroy attempted to stall the eviction process by appearing ‘reconciled’ and legally unified. “They were warned that being in the middle of a divorce could complicate housing court decisions, especially when children are involved,” a real estate attorney explained. “So dismissing the divorce may have been a calculated move — just one that failed.”
On April 8th, law enforcement arrived with orders to remove them. Four deputy marshals entered the property around 3:30 p.m., and within hours, Kim, Kroy, and their belongings were gone. Court documents confirm the eviction was executed in full, and the box labeled “ejected” was checked.
Neighbors reportedly witnessed moving trucks and loud arguments throughout the day. “They looked panicked,” one resident said. “Whatever plan they had clearly didn’t work.”
While neither Kim nor Kroy have publicly addressed the eviction, their social media activity paints a picture of forced optimism. Kim posted a filtered selfie just 24 hours later with the caption, “Fresh start, baby.”
Still, the public isn't buying it. “They were playing house in a house that didn’t belong to them,” one fan tweeted. “Now reality hit — and it hit with a badge.”
As of now, it remains unclear where Kim and Kroy are living. Sources suggest they're staying with friends or temporarily renting in the Atlanta area. The couple’s finances are reportedly under heavy strain, with multiple lawsuits, IRS liens, and unpaid debts still looming.
But one thing is clear: no amount of legal maneuvering could keep them in that mansion. The fairy tale facade has shattered — and this time, the door closed with a marshal’s boot.
