The latest development has Kroy filing for divorce from the Real Housewives of Atlanta star, 46, for the third time since his initial filing in May 2023.
This time he's filed in Cobb County and there's a very good reason for the new filing, per TMZ.
Kim has moved from Fulton County – where the former NFL player originally filed – to Cobb County.

Earlier this week, TMZ reported that Zolciak filed a case in family court saying she believes her ex is battling the effects of the disease and has asked the court to appoint healthcare workers to examine her spouse.
CTE is a degenerative brain disease that is caused by repeated hits to the head. Over time, these hits result in the accumulation of tau protein around the brain, which can lead to confusion, depression and eventually dementia.
There have been several retired football players who have come forward with brain diseases, many of whom attribute their condition to the game.
In the documents, Zolciak alleged Biermann frequently gets into expletive-laden outbursts about her with their four minor children present.
She also alleges he has used physical violence against her.
Zolciak has also accused her estranged husband of 'extreme sexual promiscuity.'
Zolciak also claims her spouse has attempted to prevent their children from contacting her. She alleges he has assumed control of their cell phones.
She included stats from a Boston University study examining the frequency of CTE in former NFL players. Over 90% of participants had the ailment.

In 2023, Biermann also asked that Zolciak undergo a psychological evaluation, accusing her of having a gambling problem.
This latest report is not the first time CTE has been brought up in connection with Biermann.
During a May 2023 phone call with police, Zolciak appeared to imply he had the disease.
Zolciak alleged Biermann locked her out of the home while she was attempting to get her medication during the call, which was obtained by Us Weekly.
'He’s diabolical, he just wants to create havoc,' she said. 'I mean you would think I cheated on the guy, the way he f***king behaves. It’s, like, super strange, erratic behavior and I never know who I’m going to get.'
Though Zolciak did not outwardly state he has CTE, she seemed to suggest it by saying the NFL needs to be 'held accountable for these shenanigans.'

'I don’t know if that’s what he’s dealing with, but you know,' Spivey added.
