Kim Zolciak Nursing Degree

No doubt Kim Zolciak has just done it all! But even having a nursing degree?

The "Real Housewife of Atlanta" claimed in Bravo's reality television series in 2010 that she is also a Licensed Practicing Nurse (LPN).

No one believed her words, especially Phaedra and Dwight, who went in on her after Phaedra discovered that Zolciak called her little one an "alien baby."

Besides, we all thought Phaedra had an absolutely valid point when she stated that just because Kim stripped out of a naughty nurse outfit doesn't mean she's a real nurse. But surprisingly Kim was not lying about her career path...

Also, during her pregnancy Kim was caught smoking cigarettes at an Atlanta Falcons Game, an incident which caused a stir on the web. Kim should had known better than anyone that smoking is strictly forbidden when you are expecting a baby. There is actually proof that Kim is a real nurse according to these documents:

Kim aka Kimberleigh M. Zolciak held a LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) license #27545 in the State of Connecticut from July 29, 1999 to June 31, 2001:

and in the State of Georgia Kim held an LPN license #059799 from October 28, 1999 through March 31, 2003:

Fact: From 1999-2003, one Kimberleigh Marie Zolciak was, in fact, licensed as a nurse in Connecticut and Georgia. In the general nursing hierarchy, LPNs are lowest on the totem pole (ie., require the least amount of schooling, and have the most limited procedural privileges), but, Kim was undoubtedly trained, and had to pass certain state and national boards to obtain her license.

It has to be mentioned that Mikala Lifa from Yahoo Shine! tracked down Zolciak's licenses in both Connecticut and Georgia.





Given Kim Zolciak's smoking habit (even during pregnancy) and personality in general, are you still surprised she has a nursing degree?
