Ariana Biermann has shared the real story behind her recent black eye.
How to Watch
The Don’t Be Tardy daughter showed off the shiner via TikTok this week, confirming it was the result of a self-inflicted, shoe-related injury.
“I don’t know if I’ve ever felt stupider, OK?” Ariana said in the October 9 video. “The other night, I come home, this is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever done. See this black eye on my face? This is from Saturday. Today’s Wednesday. Here she is. My eye is extremely swollen. Maybe a little hard to tell over the phone — hope it is.”
Ariana Biermann reenacts the mishap that injured her eye
As she began detailing the accident, Ariana got up and provided a quick reenactment. She sat cross-legged on the floor and pulled out a pair of Naked Wolf stretch boots.
“Let me give you a demonstration… It was with this shoe and this massive heel,” she said while showing off the thick platform.
Ariana then put the boot on and revealed just how difficult it was to remove. She lifted her foot to her head and used both hands to tug upwards. After a few seconds of forceful pulling, the boot eventually slipped off… right toward Ariana’s face.
“You cannot make this sh-t up,” she continued. “I wish that I had a really cool story… I don’t. I genuinely hit my f—king face with my f—king shoe.”
Ariana issues a footwear warning: "Be careful..."
Ariana — daughter of The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Kim Zolciak-Biermann — reassured fans that she was doing just fine, but the swelling and bruising were understandably annoying.
“I’m OK,” she continued before putting on a pair of oversized sunglasses. “So I’ve been walking around like this.”
The Georgia native used the incident as a cautionary tale for other women: "Be careful taking off your shoes, ladies. You never know what could happen.”
Ariana moves to NYC with her boyfriend, Hudson McLeroy
Besides the little shoe mishap, Ariana appears to be enjoying her new life chapter. The KAB Cosmetics co-founder left Atlanta earlier this year and moved to New York City along her with boyfriend, Hudson McLeroy. Ariana announced the big news in a July 7 Instagram, which showed her and her beau kissing in Manhattan.
“Taking our love story to a new city,” she captioned the post. “We officially live in New York!!!! thank you god for making this possible and allowing me to live my dream w my best friend.”
Will Brielle Biermann join her sister Ariana in the Big Apple?
Several months later, Brielle Biermann shared her honest thoughts on her little sisters’ Big Apple move and revealed if she had any plans to join her.
“I would like to maybe do a year there or something but I love driving and a mix of city and suburban life,” Brielle wrote in an August Q&A session “I’ve never been a huge ‘I wanna live in New York!!!’ person. I like the beach & grass too much.”
Brielle admitted she was “sad” to be away from her little sister, but knew no amount of distance could break their bond.
“I’m so beyond happy for her and proud of her for doing what she’s always wanted to...getting tf out of here,” she explained. “It doesn’t matter where she is in the world I will always find her.”
