...but while she was married to her now ex-DH, Keith Sweat, whom she divorced in 2003.

What does being married to Keith have to do with the License? She had to pass the test for the thing and I highly doubt the much whining keith Sweat earned it for her.

Too funny, I remember everyone always saying he was either whining or begging in all of his songs.

so let me see if I have this right.

If you marry a man who happens to earn a good living, that automatically makes you a gold digger and you are no different from the little wh*** who gets all of her money on her back with other women's husbands?

Saw this on Bravo board. Kim once worked at a nursing home. (duh, not sure what capacity). Heck my daughter did in high school as a volunteer.

Kim gets $250,000 a year in alimony from ex. She gets $30,000 a month child support from Daniel Toce, Jr. of Conneticut. I'd say Kim is doing alright.

Lisa lost her home to foreclosure August 4th.

30,000 a month in child support? OMG

I tought Lisa was the one who was married to the guy who did the cooking, put out the rose petals and drew the bath for the 2 of them, correct? I thought he's some pro ballplayer, so why can't they pay their mortgage?

30k I guess that's just keeping them in the lifestyle the kids had grown accustomed to while the Kim and her hubby were together.

OK, Since someone posted that Lisa had been married to Keith Sweat, I looked him up. He has full custody of all 4 of his kids - 2 with Lisa and 2 from another relationship.
It is very seldom, even in this day and age, that kids go to their fathers and not their mothers. What's up with Lisa? I've only watched this season of RHOA - 2 or 3 episodes - so I know nothing of the history.

Ed was cut by the Raiders. He is hoping according to Lisa to get picked up this season. If you want to see a pic of Big Poppa's house that has a Salon, Movie theatre outdoor living room and a Morroccan room. The master Bedroom has 2 tvs built into the bed, one for him and one for the Mrs.

There is no way that man is leaving that house and woman for that Skank Kim. The wife is named Kim Also. A picture of Mr Poppa, which looks just like the one TMZ posted is on there also. Jezebel.

I'm with you on this one.....Maybe I missed something somewhere but I too don't understand why being married to an influential/wealthy person makes you a flatbacker. It is no different then someone from a less wealthy position asking friends to keep their eyes and ears open for a job/find contacts etc...Unless I am mistaken that's called "networking". Skim(you gotta love that name) is using for lack of a better word a married man to continue her lifestyle and doesn't really have any sort of job per se. Except of course, her entertaining Big Poppa and her dabbling in "wigs" and that gosh -awful singing career that thankfully ended.
