Kim Zolciak I'm Wiggin' Out ... Sells Fake Hair for Cash Amid Bitter Divorce

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann's divorce war seems to have been triggered by financial woes, and the latest turn -- selling her wigs -- seems to underscore what's behind it all.

Kim has put some of her personal items, including those blonde wigs, up for sale on her online website, The Biermann's Closet. The wigs are pricey ... up to $2,750. There are 7 in all, which start at $1,500.

As you know, the wigs were a signature on her reality show, and now they can be yours.

There have been allegations of gambling, drug use and more in the bitter divorce. Kim wants primary custody of their kids, while Kroy wants sole custody ... with each accusing the other of being an unfit parent.

Their home went into foreclosure back in February ... and there were signs the marriage was in trouble before TMZ broke the story they had both filed for divorce after 11 years of marriage. They also owe more than $1 million in back taxes.

No end in sight to the bitterness.

'Real Housewives' Jen Shah Paranoid Over Prison Pics Leak ... Demands Investigation

Jen Shah's hitting the panic button, metaphorically, because photogs were able to snapshots of her behind bars -- and she wants the prison to find out how it happened.

If you missed it, a photo agency got pics earlier this month of Jen walking in the yard at FPC Bryan in Texas. Jen, through her rep Chris Giovanni, tells TMZ, "When I saw the photo and recognized the angle and location of where that photo was captured, I became immediately frightened."

Jen adds, "I strongly believe the photo was not taken from the outside near the exterior gates, but rather deep inside the compound at FPC- Bryan."

We're told Jen is now paranoid that whoever took the pic could do something worse next time ... "I am so worried that the next photo secretly taken of me could be in the shower, using the bathroom, or possibly changing my clothes."

Her insinuation is prison personnel took the photos, or prison staff is giving photogs access to take them.

Jen says she's grateful her husband Sharrieff plans to contact the Bureau of Prisons to ask for an investigation. We're told he's currently in the process of writing a letter expressing their concerns.

As for how she saw the photos ... we're told prison inmates use video monitors to speak with their families, and a neighboring inmate's family showed Jen the photos on the screen.

TMZ broke the story, Jen started serving her 6.5-year prison sentence back in February after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud.

Kyle Richards This is Not Ozempic Face or Bod!!! I'm Too Afraid to Take It

Kyle Richards is setting the record straight about how she obtained her toned body ... saying she's never used the diabetes drug Ozempic, instead, she's putting the work in herself.

The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star says she's never even tried the drug, when it comes to her astounding weight loss results ... claiming, she couldn't bring herself to do it if she wanted.

She told Page 6, “I’m not on any weight loss drug. If you know me, you know I have terrible anxiety so that would scare me to death. I have never, ever ever taken it.”

ICYMI, Kyle has been posting away and showing off her toned body on social media the last few months ... prompting fans to speculate she might have taken the drug, to achieve her slim body -- just as some other celebs and 'Bravo' stars have admitted to doing.

On the other hand, Kyle has voiced her frustration with these rumors, maintaining she's done it all herself by changing her lifestyle and habits ... and now we have a better idea of how she got started.

Kyle says her new bod is homemade, thanks to grueling workouts with her personal trainer Cory Gregory, whom she met through singer Morgan Wade.

BTW, some of the dietary changes include cutting out alcohol, sugar, pizza and carbs.

The use of Ozempic for weight loss has become widely popular across the U.S. and has even caused shortages of the drug for those who have Type 2 diabetes ... despite some experts warning against it.

But, for Kyle, the bottom line is ... she's not on that trend!

Guess Who These Swimming Sisters Turned Into!

Before these two famous sisters were bringing all the drama to reality television, they were just two siblings having a splash-tastic time at the pool, driving themselves to the studios as child stars, and growing up in Beverly Hills, California.

Starting their acting careers as youngin's.. you'd probably recognize the brunette sister from "Halloween" or "Little House On A Prairie" and the blonde sister from "Escape To Witch Mountain." And although these two have gone at it on "The Housewives", there's no denying their sisterly love!

Need one more clue? The infamous limo fight circa 2010!

Can you guess who they are?

Kroy Biermann Kim's Got Gambling Problem ... She Needs Psych Exam!!!

Kroy Biermann says his estranged wife, Kim Zolciak, spends so much time gambling their money away online, she can't take care of their kids ... and now he's asking the judge to order a mental evaluation for her.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Kroy says Kim's been showing some "very troubling behavior" that's accelerated in the months leading up to their divorce.

Kroy claims Kim has admitted to him that she's spending a lot of time and money on online gambling and other games of chance, and he claims her "compulsion" has devastated the family financially.

What's more, Kroy claims Kim is so consumed with online gambling she's unable to properly care for the couple's four minor children ... and as a result, he says he's concerned for the kiddos' safety and well-being.

Kroy says it's in the best interest of their kids for Kim to sit for a psych exam ... he suspects her alleged gambling problem may be the result of underlying mental health issues like depression, anxiety, narcissistic personality disorder, bipolar disorder or ADHD.

TMZ broke the story ... Kim and Kroy are deep in the hole, owing more than $1 million to the IRS.

The divorce is getting uglier by the day ... Kroy's legal papers come on the heels of Kim asking a judge to step in and force Kroy to get a drug test.

As we first reported ... both Kim and Kroy filed separate divorce petitions earlier this month, and they are both seeking custody of the kids ... and the recent filings indicate things are getting nasty.

Kim and Kroy are still living under the same roof with their kids, in the same Georgia estate that went into foreclosure earlier this year ... so it's a safe bet tensions between the two are running high.

Zolciak is asking the judge to force Kroy to submit to a five-panel hair follicle drug screen ... and that he not cut or remove any of his hair until the screen is complete.

TMZ broke the story ... both Kim and Kroy filed separate petitions for divorce last week. Both are asking for sole physical custody of their kids ... and Kroy's asking for sole legal custody as well.

Kim Zolciak & Kroy Biermann No Open Marriage Or Cheating ... Despite Online Rumors

There have been lots of theories thrown around as to what led to the downfall of Kim Zolciak's marriage to Kroy Biermann -- from rumors of cheating to claims the two had an open marriage ... but we're told all that noise is far from the truth.

Here's the deal -- the rumor mill has been going crazy since Kim filed for divorce from the former NFL star earlier this week ... with smoke online about possible affairs.

On the opposite end of that spectrum ... the anonymous gossip site DeuxMoi claimed the two had an open marriage.

However, sources with direct knowledge say that's all BS ... saying there was neither cheating nor any flexibility in the now-estranged couple's sex life.

Lots of 'RHOA' fans have also been wondering if Kim will be making her return to the show, or even if she’ll be a part of the upcoming cast of the spin-off "The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip" amid her nasty divorce -- but sources say she has no interest in the reality TV game right now, and instead is focused on her kids.

TMZ broke the story, Kim pulled the plug on her 11-year marriage at the end of April ... saying it was "irretrievably broken with no hope of reconciliation." They've got 4 kids together, and she's asking for primary physical custody of them and joint legal custody. Kroy wants sole custody -- thus, the battle.

Our sources say Kim's been laying low at home with her kids when they aren't at school since her filing -- but is still sticking to the same schedule as always with no changes to the day-to-day.

Kim Zolciak Still in Mommy Mode As Kroy Divorce Rages On

Kim Zolciak isn't letting her ongoing divorce war with Kroy Biermann stop her from taking care of the couple's 4 kiddos ... still going full mommy mode to keep things as normal as possible ... despite the fact her estranged husband is gunning to take the kids.

Check out the pics, obtained by TMZ, showing Zolciak driving her Range Rover Wednesday to pick up her son, Kane, from school. Our sources say this is a regular occurrence, but something Kim wants to continue to do in order to keep the kids comfortable and calm.

Kroy stated in his divorce petition he wants sole custody of their four kids -- he wants them to live with him, though he didn't specify where. Our Kim sources say despite what Kroy insinuates in the docs, both Kim and Kroy are still living under the same roof with their children.

TMZ broke the story, both Kim and Kroy filed separate divorce petitions, a clear indication things are getting very nasty behind the scenes.

Kroy is asking for both sole legal and physical custody of the kids, without any mention of visitation for Kim. He's also asking she vacate their family home, the same one that went into foreclosure earlier this year.

For her part, Kim's asking for sole physical and joint legal custody of the kids, with visitation for Kroy.

We were the first to report the estranged couple is in serious financial trouble, owing more than $1 million to the IRS ... in his divorce docs, Kroy requested Kim maintain all financial records -- including expense reports as well as income and tax records.

Kim Zolciak & Kroy Biermann Divorce War Dog Fight Over Child Custody & Finances

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann's divorce has telltale signs it's already super nasty ... with a war brewing over the estranged couple's children and broken finances.

We've now obtained Kroy's petition for divorce, and he wants sole legal and physical custody of the pair's 4 minor children. That in itself is an aggressive move, essentially cutting his estranged wife out of the child-rearing process.

Kim's legal docs also reveal things are not kumbaya. She's asking for sole physical custody with visitation for Kroy. When couples get along, they typically ask for joint legal and physical custody, but neither seems to want that.

There's also the couple's home -- which went into foreclosure earlier this year. Kroy's asking for possession of the home ... and that Kim be forced to vacate the property. Again, super aggressive.

TMZ broke the story, Kim and Kroy owe more than $1 million in taxes, dating back to 2013.

Kroy puts Kim on notice in his divorce petition, saying she must maintain all financial documents ... including all income records, tax records, expense records and more. This suggests a deep conflict over who was responsible for their financial woes.

Interestingly enough, both Kim and Kroy filed separate petitions for divorce, Kroy's was stamped on Monday ... and we're told Kim filed hers over the weekend. In other words, it was a race to the courthouse so each could say they filed first to end the marriage.

Buckle up.

'RHOA' Kim Zolciak Still Living with Kroy Despite Divorce

The marriage of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann may be over, but that doesn't mean they're ready to completely cut ties, not yet anyway ... we've learned they're still living under the same roof.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Kim and Kroy both continue to live in their Georgia mansion with their 4 young kids. It's the same home that went into foreclosure back in February. There's typically a grace period for homeowners to pay up and save the home. It's unclear where they are in that process.

It's also unclear how long they'll live there together, especially if things get nasty. Given they have 4 kids, they may want to cushion the blow of the divorce by staying in the same home ... at least in the short term.

As for what led Kim to file for divorce, we're told that's a mystery to everyone around the estranged couple, who thought all was good between the 'RHOA' star and Kroy.

As we first reported, Kim's asking for primary physical custody and joint legal custody of the couple's kids ... she also wants spousal support.

Kim's daughters, Brielle and Ariana, denied their swanky pad was heading to the auction block ... saying they were still hunkered down in the estate with no plans to get out of there.

It appears the family's still posting on social media from inside the GA home, so it looks like authorities haven't yet moved in to secure the property.

'RHOSLC' JEN SHAH Husband Passes on New Season ... Despite Producers Wanting Him on Cam

Jen Shah's husband will NOT be making any appearances in the upcoming season of "The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" -- while she's doing time -- even though producers tried to get him on camera.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... producers approached Jen's husband, Sharrieff Shah, last month in hopes of getting him to appear in the new season, but after talking to his wife -- who's in federal prison -- he ultimately declined the offer.

We're told the Bravo show production team wanted to have Sharrieff meet up with the other husbands of "RHOSLC" to talk about Jen's prison bid and how he's dealing with it.

Our sources say one of the reasons Sharrieff and Jen ultimately decided to pass on him making cameos is because they're not happy with how the network treated her after she was sentenced to 6.5 years in prison.

In case you didn't know ... Jen blasted Bravo in January -- after the sentencing in her wire fraud case -- refusing a one-on-one with Andy Cohen and Bravo because "of their unwillingness to remove contractual provisions that allow the network to legally make misrepresentations of me and my story."

The show will obviously go on, but Sharrieff and Jen's views won't be part of it.

Larsa Pippen, Marcus Jordan Hosting Celeb Hoops Game ... Love & Basketball!!!

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan are taking their love to the hardwood -- the couple is teaming up to host a celebrity basketball game ahead of the Miami Grand Prix!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... Larcus (yeah, we're coining that) are headlining the Wooshi World Celebrity Basketball Classic in Sunrise, FL on Wednesday, May 3 to benefit the "D Up on Cancer" charity.

Big names like Miami Dolphins superstar Tyreek Hill, Lil Pump, Ex-NFLer Bryant McKinnie, influencer Jen Selter and country artist Jimmie Allen are all slated to participate in the game at FLA Live Arena ... and the Chicago Bulls legend's son will serve as a coach.

The event -- also hosted by Celebrity Sports Entertainment, The Money Team and DJ Irie -- is another big step for Pippen and Jordan, who recently took things public after months of downplaying their romance.

Considering it's a special moment, it wouldn't be a surprise if Bravo cameras are present to get footage for a future episode of "The Real Housewives of Miami" ... which, of course, is the show Larsa appears on.

The two are pretty much inseparable at this point -- they've been going to romantic dinners, concerts and fancy boat trips together ever since they decided to go official.

HAUNTED IN HOLLYWOOD
TMZ.com

Mauricio Umansky -- the real estate tycoon who's married to Kyle Richards -- has a spooky story about selling the house Michael Jackson died in ... and if you don't believe in spirits, then explain what you're about to hear!

The 'RHOBH' husband and The Agency CEO joins us on "TMZ Live" Monday with a story that's in his new book, 'The Dealmaker' ... a story about selling the Holmby Hills estate where MJ died back in 2009.

For starters ... how is it that Mauricio locked up the house tight as a drum and, when he came back, the window in the room where Michael passed was open and music was playing? And if you don't believe that, listen to how it happened a second time.

That's all well and good, but he tells a story about what appeared to be a broken chandelier that gave the buyer cold feet. MU threw a Hail Mary to Michael, and his prayer was answered ... scoring an $18.1M sale back in 2012.

Mauricio is dishing out all the deets in "The Dealmaker: How to Succeed in Business & Life through Dedication, Determination & Disruption."
