Drawing the line. Kim Zolciak said she is “not open to any plastic surgery” for her daughters Brielle and Ariana Biermann “at this time.”
“I tell them… ‘When you’re done having kids and all that good stuff, worry about that stuff later on down the road, if that’s what you want to do,” Zolciak, 40, recently told Entertainment Tonight. “But you guys are beautiful and so young.”
The family matriarch and Brielle, 21, have both been transparent about getting lip injections in the past, something Zolciak doesn’t consider to be plastic surgery.
“We’re very open with the things that I’ve done. Brielle’s only done her lips,” the Real Housewives of Atlanta star told Us Weekly days before the premiere of the family’s reality show, Don’t Be Tardy. “All these people [who] think she’s had all this plastic surgery crack me up. She’s 21 years old. Get a life. She did her lips and that’s it.”
The “Love Me First” singer also said she’s not phased by trolls who think her lips look too big. “I don’t know why they think my lips look so crazy. I don’t really give two s–ts because half of them are calling the same doctor that did them and wants my lips, so it’s bizarre. I’m comfortable and happy with who I am.”
While the Florida native said Brielle is equally good at letting comments from haters roll off her back, Ariana, 17, can be a bit more sensitive. “I monitor a lot of Ariana’s social media,” revealed Zolciak. “She has a much different personality than Brielle. So I’ve always had to kind of monitor Ariana’s social media, delete comments, delete comments off of my page, because she’s a lot more sensitive.”
In the season 7 premiere of Don’t Be Tardy, which airs February 17, fans will see Ariana getting upset while trying on a prom dress, a moment that Zolciak said inspired her daughter to focus more “on her health and working out.”
No matter what, the Bravo star says her ultimate goal is to build her daughters’ confidence: “They’re so beautiful on the inside and I definitely focus on that.”
Along with Brielle and Ariana, Zolciak is the mother of Kroy Jr., 7, Kash, 6, and 5-year-old twins Kaia and Kane, with husband Kroy Biermann.
Don’t Be Tardy airs on Bravo Sundays at 9 p.m. ET.
