Kroy Biermann sued by Chase Bank for $13K in overdue credit card debt – days after shouting match with Kim Zolciak over financial woes
Kroy Biermann is being sued by Chase Bank for delinquent credit card debt, just days after police were forced to break up his shouting match with estranged wife Kim Zolciak due to financial problems.
The 35-year-old former NFL player will be sued by the big bank, which is seeking a judge to rule that he must pay them back, according to a Tuesday report from TMZ.
Documents obtained by the site say the former athlete owes a total of $13,071.88, which Chase says is well overdue.
The financial institution even included credit card statements with the complaint, showing that large balances had begun piling up since the summer.
This is because he and 45-year-old ex Kim can’t seem to escape the drama caused by their desperate financial state.

After the divorcing couple had a disturbing verbal argument last Monday evening that led to a police visit, TMZ reports that the argument started over money.
The screaming between the two eventually became so extreme that one of their four youngest children reportedly called the police for help.
The outburst was particularly shocking as the warring exes appeared to have put their differences aside earlier this month when they reunited for a lavish dinner to celebrate their anniversary.
However, sources close to Kim and Kroy say they started bickering on and off about a week ago, just days after their dinner.
The series of arguments was reportedly ‘intense’ and was again inspired by their mounting debts and legal decisions against them that forced them to pay huge sums they owed.
It is unclear whether their extensive anniversary dinner played a role in those conversations, or if it was unrelated.
The exes apparently didn’t take a break from the fighting to get some space, and instead stayed together at their family home, keeping the feud going for days.
The two are currently in the process of selling their home, which they listed for $6 million.

Separated: The two have to stay in separate parts of their home, but that hasn’t stopped the fight. They reportedly started arguing occasionally after an anniversary dinner a week earlier, just days before
The potential sale could help the couple get rid of the property before it could be foreclosed on, and it could also potentially help pay off their debts and allow them to find more modest separate housing.
The former Real Housewives Of Atlanta star and the ex-NFL player are ordered to live in separate parts of their home, with the judge overseeing their divorce ordering Kroy to stay in the home’s master bedroom while Kim is locked up in the basement and the associated bedroom suite.
It is unclear whether the couple tried to stay in their own area during the shouting match, or if they met in person in one of the common areas of their home, where they are allowed to gather together under the judge’s order.
That freedom of movement in the house seems to have created the conditions for their final verbal battle.
It was reportedly one of their youngest children who called the police to quell the argument, but Kim and Kroy were seen together earlier on Monday when they took the kids for a haircut.
The outing showed no obvious tension and the family also stopped by a Starbucks for a drink.
It is not clear which of their children called for help, but law enforcement sources have said so TMZ that it wasn’t one of Kim’s older children: Brielle, 26, or Ariana, 22, both from previous relationships.
The exes also share sons KJ, 12; Kash, 11; and fraternal twins Kane and Kaia, nine, one of whom reportedly called the police.

Deafening: Law enforcement sources told TMZ that Kim and Kroy had an ‘extremely loud’ verbal fight, scaring one of the young children enough to call 911
According to the sources, three police officers and a supervisor visited the estranged couple’s home, where a judge ordered them to sleep on separate floors.
They said Kim and Kroy were involved in an “extremely loud” verbal fight, which appears to have scared one of the children so much that they had to call for help to break it up.
Police apparently managed to subdue the two for the night.
Kim previously called police to their home — which they are trying to sell for $6 million to help pay off their mounting debts — after Kroy locked himself in the couple’s bedroom and allegedly refused entry to his estranged wife.
When police arrived, Kroy – who refused to show his face behind the bedroom door – handed over Kim’s medications and some cosmetics, as well as a comforter.
Kroy had locked himself in the bedroom again at the end of September, when Kim called the police again.
She said the footballer took her two mobile phones into the bedroom and refused to give them back to her.
The police eventually had him hand over the phones, and Kim slept in a separate bedroom with the door locked for privacy.
The latest incident appears to be an escalation of sorts, as it was previously one of the adults who called the police on previous visits, but now one of their young children has intervened.
The children were home during previous law enforcement visits, although Kim claimed they were asleep during the September visit because of the allegedly stolen cellphones.
A judge previously ordered Kim to live in the basement suite of their home, while Kroy was allowed to stay in the master bedroom.
The arrangement was apparently intended to give them privacy and reduce arguments, although both are allowed to be in common areas of their home, including the living room and kitchen.
Getting in touch: In addition to Kim’s eldest daughter Brielle, 26, and Ariana, 22, she and Kroy share sons KJ, 12; Kash, 11; and fraternal twins Kane and Kaia, nine, one of whom reportedly called the police
Toning down: According to the sources, three police officers and a supervisor stopped by the estranged couple’s home. They could subdue them for the night
Pulling out all the stops: Despite the tension between the couple and their apparent lack of resources, they gathered for a lavish pasta and seafood dinner on their anniversary earlier this month
The reality star has given mixed signals about the state of her marriage. In between police visits, she and Kroy put on a happy face to celebrate their anniversary with a fancy dinner earlier this month, and she even added her married name back to her Instagram account despite her ongoing divorce.
Last week, Kim even pushed back on concerns that she was selling her designer clothes and accessories to help pay her significant debts.
After a fan asked on Instagram if she was trying to raise money, she claimed she simply had too much stuff and was trying to pare it down.
Yet the financial problems for the two continue to increase. While they wait to see if their expensive home will sell, they have been ordered by a judge to pay $230,000 from a lawsuit over unpaid credit card bills, and Kroy has also been ordered to turn over his Rolls-Royce after he was stopped earning the $5,000. monthly payments for more than one year.
