Who Knew Kim Zolciak?s Ex-Husband Was a Convicted Child Molester?

So the plot thickens…

Kim Zolciak…. mother of two girls and one newborn baby boy, was apparently once married to a guy who had a long sordid criminal past.

Shocker right?

But wait! That’s not all…

While many are more shocked that the Real “Housewife” of Atlanta was ever married in the first place, word on the curb is that Kim’s ex-hubby, Dan?iel Dominic Toce, the father of her two daughters youngest daughter, is a convicted child molester….

WTF?!? 😯 *Faints*

Details…

Kim married Daniel Toce, Jr. May 5, 2001 and the pair was divorced by February 2003 and it wasn’t soon after their split that Toce began his life of crime.

Toce, Jr., 38, is the son of billionaire, which affords Kim the lifestyle she and her daughters have become accustomed, BUT while it’s rumored Kim gets mad dough from the Toce family, her ex causes them both a ton of embarrassment.

Not only does Toce, Jr. have a laundry list of arrests and convictions dat?ing back to 2004, and ranging from breach of peace to felony robbery and larceny, but he now sits in a Connecticut prison convicted of molesting a 15 year old!

?Kim can?t believe the father of her girls is a child molester!? a source close to the reality star confided.

?When she got the news, she was sick to her stomach. Kim can?t stop thinking about the shocking crime that Daniel committed on that inno?cent girl.?

In 2010, Toce pleaded guilty to a single count of felony sex abuse against a mi?nor, he was sentenced to 10 years behind bars and is now serving 2 1/2 years at the MacDougall-Walker Correctional In?stitution in Suffield. His remaining sentence will be suspended.

After his release, Toce will be on 10 years probation and will be required to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

Kim reportedly plans to cut all ties between Toce and her two daughters, Brielle, 14, and Ariana, 10.

?Kim is consulting her legal team to see if she can permanently terminate Daniel?s parental rights or at least severely restrict them,? the source divulged.

?She doesn?t want him anywhere near her two girls when he gets out of prison.?

Well at least Kim doesn’t have to worry about that scumbag til 2012. Let’s pray she gets her way and keeps him away from ALL of her kids.

On a lighter note… Kim and Cynthia were spotted filming last week at a local bar & grill.? Kimmie rocked a long sundress while Cynthia showed off her long lean legs in a pair of Levi jeggins.

Are you shocked about Kim’s ex-husband?

Do you think they’ll add this lil tidbit of Kimmie’s history to the storyline somehow?
