Cashing in!
Kim Zolciak and her daughter Brielle Biermann are getting huge raises for the new season of Don’t Be Tardy, RadarOnline.com exclusively learned.
The plastic surgery loving mother-daughter-duo are earning big bucks as filming for their family centered reality show began in Atlanta on June 10, 2019.
While court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com revealed Kim was ordered to pay $215,000 to American Express, her raise for Season 8 of the Bravo show couldn’t have come at a better time.
On May 9, 2019, the court ordered that Kim must pay American Express $215,822.68 after she failed to respond to the default judgment request.
For previous seasons of the show, Kim was making a whopping $1.5 million per season on Don’t Be Tardy, the spin-off she continued after she was fired from the Real Housewives of Atlanta.
After “Roachgate,” where her daughter Brielle filmed a video in NeNe Leakes’ bathroom of a roach crawling around, Kim was fired from RHOA, even though she begged to remain on the show and even offered to take a pay cut.
Now she’s pulling in well over $1million for the upcoming season of Don’t Be Tardy!
