"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak spoke with ESSENCE.com this week to confirm that she and secret boyfriend otherwise known as Big Poppa were going through some problems. While Kim admits that her mystery guy is in the midst of a divorce, she also says that she and Big Poppa are currently taking time off from one another."We're on an off right now. The show has definitely taken a toll on our relationship too so we will see what happens. We're still engaged but the footage, the gossip, the show, the rumors are all the reasons why I didn't have him on the show. It was completely my decision and it had nothing to do with him being married."

Check back on Tuesday for the full interview and to find out what Kim really thinks of her fellow housewives.
