'Glad it's over!' Kim Zolciak's heart surgery has been a success, and she shared the good news along with an Instagram post on Tuesday

The star - who was forced to pull out of her appearance on Dancing With The Stars due to the stroke - added: 'Quite the whirlwind this last month has been...but such a blessing too.'

Kim then went on to add a litany of hashtags, sharing her gratitude at those who have helped to care for her over the past month.

'#MyFamilyHasBeenAmazing #TheFalconsHaveBeenSoSupportive #GodIsIncredible #Blessed #Grateful #ThankYouToMyDoctorsAndNurses #AmazingTeam,' she wrote.

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kim had previously revealed that she was due to undergo heart surgery after suffering a mini stroke, to fix a hole in her heart.

Heatlh woes: Kim, 37, was forced to leave Dancing With The Stars last month when she suffered a mini stroke after flying home to Atlanta after a performance

In September, her stint on the popular celebrity dancing programme was cut short after being deemed 'medically unfit' to compete following the stroke.

And, earlier this month, the star was forced to hit back at claims that her penchant for a tight corset waist-trainer was responsible for her health woes.

The star donned her waist-trainer for another selfie as she hit back at criticism saying 'By no means did my waist trainer cause my blood clot or my TIA.'

Kim started her long picture caption by saying: 'Good morning!!!! You guys know I love my @nowaistclique waist trainer, I have heard all sorts of ppl commenting on "what might have caused my mini stroke"

Honing her figure: Kim recently hit back at commentators on social media who said her waist trainers caused her mini stroke

She continued: 'let me be real clear, I am a very healthy woman who takes great care of myself, however I was born with PFO (a hole in my heart) which enabled a clot to cross over and stop oxygen to my brain for a very short time in turn causing me to have a TIA, I will be having heart surgery to repair it.

'By no means did my waist trainer cause my blood clot or my TIA. I would never use anything nor promote anything that I personally didn't love or something that was dangerous. I LOVE LIFE WAY TOO MUCH! and I have a whole lotta living to do #KeepItTight #Hourglass #CommentRudeIBlockYou #HeartAwareness #THANKYOUFORALLYOURPRAYERS'

Taking direction: The top-heavy star shared a silly clip on Wednesday during a filming session for Entertainment Tonight inside her home

Kim was axed from season 21 of the dancing competition series because although she was able to dance - she was not allowed to fly back to LA from her home in Atlanta to perform.

'I was able to dance, I just couldn't fly,' Kim said to Good Morning America of the frustrating situation. 'I feel like they could've done something via satellite. They've made exceptions in the past.'

Kim will be back however with partner Tony Dovolani to dance for one last performance on the Dancing with the Stars finale.

New venture: The mother-of-six is keeping herself busy after realizing her dream of doing motivational speaking which will begin in December

Back on cameras: Kim appeared on GMA last week to talk about the situation where she revealed it was because she was unable to fly back to LA from Atlanta that she was axed from the show

Meanwhile, the mother-of-six is keeping herself busy after realizing her dream of doing motivational speaking.

'I'm so flipping EXCITED!!!!! ...I'm finally doing it!' she gushed on Instagram on Tuesday as she shared the news with her 1.6M followers.

According to the promo she posted, the new venture which begins in December will be called the 'Ask Believe Receive Tour,' and will consist of 'tips, tools, and dedication for manifesting the life you have always dreamed of.'
