Kim Zolciak's estranged husband, Kroy Biermann, filed for divorce once again in a Georgia court Thursday.

Biermann, a former professional football player, stated his 12-year marriage was "irretrievably broken" in documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

The new divorce filing comes nearly one month after the reality stars voluntarily dismissed a first petition for divorce, which was initially filed in May.

Biermann requested to be awarded "exclusive, temporary and permanent use and possession of the marital residence" in Alpharetta. 

"Petitioner (Biermann) shows that Respondent (Zolciak) should be restrained and enjoined from coming about the marital residence after she vacates," documents stated.

Their marriage appeared to be on the mends last month when they were spotted heading to church together near their home in the suburbs of Atlanta.

In addition to their marital woes, Biermann and Zolciak owed the IRS more than $1 million in unpaid taxes from 2013, 2017 and 2018, according to separate documents obtained by Fox News Digital in May.

In February, it was reported the couple's extravagant Georgia mansion was in foreclosure and set to go up for public auction in March, allegedly due to Biermann and Zolciak defaulting on a $1.65 million loan they took out in 2012 against the property. However, the foreclosure auction was later canceled.
