Ariana Biermann teased an upcoming screaming match on Next Gen NYC while appearing on her castmate Gia Giudice‘s podcast on Monday.

As she also spoke of paying the bills of her parents, Kim Zolciak, 47, and Kroy Biermann, 39, recalled receiving gifts from her mom that she had paid for with her money, and reacted to her recent DUI sentencing, Ariana, 23, expressed interest in reuniting Kim and Kandi Burruss, 49, dished on starting a family, and shared her financial fears.

“We may have been going in on someone together who I do feel like did deserve it a little bit,” Ariana recalled to Gia, 24, of their upcoming Next Gen NYC spat on a recent episode of Casual Chaos.

Although Ariana didn’t detail who their feud was with, she did open up about her decision to speak on her financial drama with Kim and Kroy on the show, noting that she believed people had the wrong idea about her own spending.

“I’m so tired of the narrative of ‘pay your parents’ bills.’ I’m like, I do … [But] I’m definitely nervous [for that to play out on the show],” she explained. “I think people think I was the reason my parents got in this money situation. People think me and my sister [Brielle Biermann] were spending like crazy … I’m like, ‘No, not quite. I was shopping at Shein.’”

According to Ariana, she didn’t pay for any of her Chanel bags. Instead, she’s received them as gifts.

“My mom has got them for me for Christmas with, apparently, my money,” she noted. “So I guess I did buy one, I just was unaware of it.”

Despite the betrayal, Ariana said she wasn’t “angry” at Kim and Kroy.

“This is not something that I’m angry about. This is not something that I hold resentment in my heart about. I’m just not that kind of person. And I don’t want money to ruin relationships,” she explained. “It’s so stupid. You can always make more money.”

“I just don’t want there to be any blowback … I’m not going to let that happen,” she added.

Moving on to her DUI sentence, which included 40 hours of community service and an order to steer clear of drugs and alcohol, Ariana admitted that there was a major misconception about her plea.

“I didn’t do it and I was never gonna take any deal or do anything, and I denied so many of them because I was like, ’No, I didn’t do this,’” she explained. “The headlines coming out and the misconception, I think [what’s] crazy is everybody thinks I’m on probation for the next two years and that I have a DUI. I do not have one. It was dismissed completely.”

Although Ariana denied the reported 24-month probation, she admitted she will be drinking “no more wine.”

“I am literally gonna have a damn sixpack,” she suspected. “My mom and my sister totally got those skinny great jeans. I don’t know what my sperm donor, [that’s] what I call him, I don’t know what the hell he’s got on his side, but I did not.”

After reconnecting with Riley Burruss, 22, on Next Gen NYC after not speaking for “many years,” Ariana said she and her castmate would like to coax their moms into a reconciliation.

“That’s me and Riley’s next step. We’re gonna put them in a room and they’re gonna figure it out,” she declared, noting that they’d “seen each other at parties” and said “hi.”

Looking ahead to her future, Ariana said she’s learned to be smart with her money.

“I have a large rainy day fund in the sense that I will always be okay, and my family will be okay. Not for long, but with what I’ve made in the last year, we’ll be okay for at least a couple of months,” she shared. 

Signaling her boyfriend, Hudson McLeroy, Ariana admitted she “[tries] to tame [him].”

“I don’t like to spend money … I try to keep as much money as I can … I’m scared,” she explained. “It gives me anxiety … I set a goal for myself with money all the time … I have a great relationship with money and will never be in a bad spot with it.”

She also plans to make sure her future children “have a trust fund.”

“When they grow up and stuff, if they want to start businesses, I’ll have the money to fund it for them … but you’re not gonna be sitting there spending $10,000 on rent in New York City,” she clarified.

Although Ariana insisted she wasn’t someone who would hold onto bitterness over money, she admitted during another segment of the podcast that she definitely dealt with her “fair share” of anger after learning Kim and Kroy had stripped her of her earnings.

“There [are] times I’ve thought about it in the sense of, I could never imagine my kid being in the situation I was in, and that’s where I’ve gotten mad in the past,” she explained. “And I’m just like, ‘This is actually crazy when you think about it.’ But then I’m like, ‘It’s my mom and my dad, and nobody would’ve done this if there was another option.’”

“I just wish everything would’ve been handled sooner before it was far too late for anybody to come back from,” she added.

Next Gen NYC season one airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
