In November, the couple became involved in a shouting match, after which one of their youngest children called the police.

In bodycam footage of the incident, Kroy can be heard calling Kim a “narcissist” and accusing her of “[sleeping with] other men.’

She responded to the “hurtful allegations” in a statement on Instagram, calling Kroy’s comments “clearly infuriating” and “untrue.”

“I categorically deny any allegation that I was unfaithful to Kroy at any time during our 12-year marriage,” she continued. “Any allegation to the contrary is blatantly false, baseless and defamatory.”

Kim continued, “I have tried not to talk about these hurtful allegations, but I have reached a breaking point and I will not remain silent if my character is killed off.”
