6. Warning

When they were first getting acquainted with each other, the former Real Housewives of Atlanta star was warned not to date the pro athlete because NFL players have a reputation for cheating on their wives and girlfriend, but she was too impressed by him to listen to any of the negativity. “After I met him, he just sent me a text that said, ‘It was really great to meet you. I’ll be in touch.’ Some guys, when you meet them, they try to play it cool for a couple days. But Kroy just sent me that text. And, honestly, people always say you just know when you meet The One. And almost immediately I just knew,” she said.

5. Disapproving Parents

Kroy’s parents do not approve of his marriage to Kim because she has two children from previous relationships. The tension was so bad that Kroy chose to cut them out of his life, so now they don’t have relationships with their grandchildren. “That’s life. You’re going to have problems with your family, we’re human. We all make mistakes, we all go through problems, but at some point you’ve got to put some more love, put some more work back into that relationship on both sides. But if you never do that, it’s over,” he said. “It’s frustrating that the kids can’t see their grandma and grandpa. Kim’s done enough to try to fix that problem.”

4. Million Dollar Wedding

They spent close to $1 million on their lavish wedding in November 2011. Kim wore three different wedding dresses that totaled roughly $92,000 and they had an 11-layered cake that rang in at $14,000. “We spared no expense, you only do this once,” Kim told Life & Style. “This is it for me. It’s very expensive but we’re in a position where we’re able to do that and I’m thankful for that.”

3. Cheating Scandal

In 2013, Kroy’s ex Elizabeth Stewart told In Touch Magazine that he began his relationship with Kim while he was still dating her back in 2010. She even released text messages that they had sent each other discussing the alleged betrayal. A source close to Kim confirmed that he had started dating her when he was still seeing Elizabeth, but Kim brushed the whole thing off, claiming that he wasn’t serious about Elizabeth and was just playing the field.

2. Potential Eviction

In 2014, it was reported that Kim and Kroy – who had taken out a $300,000 loan to renovate their lavish Georgia mansion – were facing eviction because they owed thousands in back taxes. They were served with two tax liens: one from the City of Milton, Georgia, for $1,665.26, and the other from the State of Georgia and Fulton county for $10,572.67. They had 90 days to pay or the home would be seized. The couple obviously ended up paying their back taxes cause they didn’t get evicted.
