Ariana Biermann Isn’t Impressed By Ex Hudson McLeroy’s Public Apology
Ariana Biermann is not here for her ex-boyfriend’s public apology.
On October 21, the Next Gen NYC star took to Instagram to share some thoughts about his relationship with his co-star, which he said “held more weight than most people will ever know.”
“Ariana, I’m sorry I couldn’t see how much you were hurting because I was so caught up in how happy you made me,” he wrote. “I let what I felt drown out what you were trying to tell me.”
Hudson went on to reference the ongoing drama involving Ariana’s family. In August, her younger brother KJ Biermann, 15, was arrested on charges of child molestation and sexual battery after an alleged incident with a girl at a gym in Georgia. KJ is the son of Ariana’s mother, former The Real Housewives of Atlanta Star Kim Zolciak, and her stepfather, former NFL player Kroy Biermann.
“Even though we’ve recently broken up, I’ve seen the comments about her and her family,” Hudson wrote. “While I can’t speak for her or for her family, I can say this, please shut the f*ck up and leave them alone. She’s dealing with enough without a random @ hiding behind a profile picture of their family dog adding their opinions.”
“So much to say publicly, yet nothing to say privately. Weird,” Ariana commented on the now-deleted post.
Hudson quickly fired back.
“@arianabiermann that’s slick,” he replied. “The craziest comment I’ve ever read. After everything I’ve done for you and your family. I was trying to make a point, but damn. This just makes you look like even more of an ass than before after everything that’s happened. But I get it. I’ll keep the space. I can remove the post if you’d like. Just let me know.”
Ariana has Hudson broke up in October 2025. They reconciled briefly in early 2026 but eventually ended their relationship.
During an appearance on the Next Gen NYC Aftershow in late August, Ariana said that financial pressures played a role in their split.
“When Hudson and I decided to move out [to New York], I literally had, I think like, $200 to my name, genuinely,” she said “Obviously, we know my parents took all my money. I never got a dollar.”
Hudson confirmed that he covered his girlfriend’s expenses early on.
“I don’t let Ariana pay for anything,” said the son of the founder of the popular Zaxby’s chicken chain. “I mean, Ariana tried to pay for everything when we were together, so it was like, her constantly pulling out her card and like, trying to pay the bill before I could.”
Things changed after Next Gen NYC became a hit, Ariana said.
“He was so happy for me,” she shared. “It did get to a point though where it was kind of like, ‘You’re bringing in more money than I’m bringing in right now. I’m not used to that.'”
