Kim Zolciak: I Don't Cover My Eyes Anymore

It's time for Kim Zolciak to come out of hiding.

"I used to cover my eyes sometimes [during my Housewives scenes]. I'd be like, 'Oh, god,'" the Real Housewives of Atlanta star confesses to People. Images of a doomed tour bus, screaming matches, and hair pulling coming to mind?

Chilling thoughts, but thank baby K.J. for turning that around and giving his mama a brand new outlook. "Having a new baby changes you," Kim says about taking maternity leave from the usual drama. "I absolutely have no regrets, but this season is a lot easier for me to watch."

Labor pains and all? "Last year I was caught up in drama and trying to do that bus tour. And it's hard to watch. You live it, and then six months later, you watch it on TV. So this season, there aren't any moments where I'm in a position where I'm going to cover my eyes."

And now Kim has her sights set on one thing -- lazy Sundays with hubby Kroy Biermann, after the New York Giants bounced his Atlanta Falcons from the NFL playoffs. "Love having @biermann71 home!!!!! Going to be a great relaxing next few months!! #familytime #marriedlife," she blissfully tweeted. Well, at least one Falcons fan is happy.
