Kim Zolciak-Biermann couldn’t find a single friend on The Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion Sunday night! After fighting with co-star NeNe Leakes over “Roach Gate” and denying claims she’s racist, the mom of six couldn’t even find an ally in host Andy Cohen, who agreed with Kim’s castmates that her time on the season had been nothing but “combative.” And now, Kim is done with RHOA for good!
During the reunion, Kim got into it with NeNe, who accused Kim of being racist for saying she was “sick and disgusting” for living in a “roach nest.” “People equate roaches with the projects,” Kandi Burruss tried to explain to Kim.
“You’re reaching. Reaching,” Kim argued back. “Don’t try it. It has nothing to do with the projects or none of that s**t. A roach is a roach.”
When the reunion ended, Kim walked off stage, and host Andy later found her having a meltdown in the bathroom. “That bitch knows I’m not racist. NeNe knows I’m not racist. You know why you have not found another white woman to join the cast? Because nobody is dumb enough to do that! Put yourself in my shoes — five African-American women — just hammered! I couldn’t even speak, my mind’s a f**king whirlwind!” Kim ranted.

“How much can a person take?” Kim asked Andy. “There wasn’t even one positive question for me. I was hammered! There wasn’t a positive question. I have a very successful marriage, I have beautiful children, there was nothing positive.”
But Andy didn’t have much sympathy for Kim. “There was nothing positive, unfortunately, in your story from the season. It was all combative. Because your whole time on the show was combative. It was,” he replied.
Since filming ended, Kim has not signed a contract for another season of RHOA. “I think she’s done, yeah,” Andy told E! News earlier this week, while Kim reportedly said she was “never, never” returning to the show. However, Kim’s spin-off show Don’t Be Tardy has been renewed for another season at Bravo.
