Kim Zolciak Addresses Borrowing Money From Daughter Ariana Biermann—and Reveals How She Spent It

“I got my first brand deal when I was 14,” she explained at the time. “I was doing like three posts a week and you get paid astronomical to do a story or to do an Instagram post and I made quite a bit of money.

And while her family’s financial history is complicated, she reassured that she’ll never place a dollar sign above her tight-knit bond with Kim.

“My mom, no matter what, will be my best friend forever,” Ariana said during her June 29 appearance on Watch What Happens Live. “Money should never ruin a relationship with your family. You can always make more money, and God blesses us in that way. I have my mom, and that’s all that matters.”
