Zolciak And Hanks’ Chemistry Started In October
Zolciak and Hanks’ on-screen chemistry is not a new phenomenon. The pair sparked romance rumors back in October during the filming of “The Surreal Life” in Colombia.

Zolciak And Biermann’s Marriage In Limbo Amidst Chet Hanks Rumors
Amid the sparks flying between Zolciak and Hanks, the reality TV star had previously claimed that her marriage to Biermann was still a work in progress.
Despite the retired NFL linebacker filing for divorce, Zolciak insists they are “living as husband and wife” and actively trying to mend their relationship.
Court documents obtained by The Blast support her claims, indicating that the couple engaged in sexual relations after the divorce petition was filed. Zolciak’s legal team formally requested the dismissal of the divorce case, arguing that:
“The very fact of cohabitation or reconciliation shows that some possibility remains that the marriage is viable…the parties are required to affirm once again that the marriage is indeed irretrievably broken by the bringing of a new complaint.”

The mother-of-six experienced a glimmer of hope amidst her tumultuous divorce from Biermann. The Blast shared that the TV personality landed a role in Hulu’s series, “Got to Get Out,” potentially earning her a million-dollar payday.
The news came as a welcome reprieve from the ongoing legal battle with Biermann, who cited Zolciak’s spending habits as grounds for divorce.

Fans of the duo will recall that the two women shared the screen for three seasons during Zolciak’s tenure on the show from 2008 to 2012, while Bailey’s involvement spanned from 2010 to 2021.

Zolciak and Bailey joined the cast of Hulu’s “Got to Get Out,” alongside other celebrities like Spencer Pratt. The diverse cast included other celebrities and civilians, all ready to embark on an intense 10-day adventure in Toronto.
“Got to Get Out” offers a unique twist on reality TV, blending elements of competition and strategy. Contestants live together in a mansion, working collaboratively to raise the prize money, which grows by $1 every second. The ultimate goal is to reach $1 million.
However, the show spices things up by introducing a tantalizing dilemma: players must decide whether to split the prize money as a team or betray their comrades and make a daring escape with the cash.
Each day, the mansion gates open at various times, and a getaway car arrives, offering contestants a chance to bolt with the loot. But it is not that simple—other players can thwart the escape by pressing a red button that slams the gates shut.
As Kim Zolciak makes waves on multiple fronts, only time will tell how the sparks flying on-screen with Chet Hanks, will play out.
