Exposure: Meghan King Accuses Jim Edmonds of Emotional Abuse Amidst Family Feud
RHOC Star Meghan King Sparks Controversy with Former Husband Jim Edmonds and His Wife Kortnie
The drama just keeps getting juicier! Real Housewives of Orange County alum Meghan King, 40, is at the center of a shocking dispute with her ex-husband Jim Edmonds' current wife Kortnie. The incident has left everyone talking, and we've got all the juicy deets!
According to reports, on May 1, Meghan stopped by Jim's Missouri home to drop off a communion dress for their eight-year-old daughter Aspen. However, things took a turn when Kortnie answered the door, informing Meghan that their daughter was at a baseball game with her father. But instead of calmly leaving, Meghan allegedly made her way into the entryway of the home without permission.
The situation quickly escalated, and Kortnie called 911, claiming Meghan was causing a disturbance. Body cam footage obtained by Us Weekly shows Meghan describing Jim as "emotionally abusive" and accusing him of leveraging his name to "push" her around during the police visit.
The video, which initially doesn't contain any audio, begins with Meghan surrounded by cops near her ex's home. She's then seen seemingly returning to her car before a police officer warns her, "I am going to place you in cuffs if you don’t stop." Meghan allegedly shouts at the cop, "There is not a restraining order."
The officer explains that he needs to confirm there was indeed no restraining order in place, and tells Meghan, "Ma’am, I’m going to place you in cuffs if you don’t stop, we are going to detain you. You have to calm down and talk to us." Meghan then gets emotional as she proceeds to describe how she had previously obtained protective orders against her former spouse.
In a stunning claim, Meghan tells police that Jim used his name and money to control her and push her around. She also denies any wrongdoing, saying she was simply trying to drop off Aspen's dress. The footage is a must-see, folks!
But here's the twist: Meghan claims she would soon be getting sole custody of their three children together, while Jim would be relocating to Nashville with his current wife Kortnie.
The incident has left everyone wondering what really went down that day. According to the police report obtained by The Scholarly Note, Kortnie claimed Meghan arrived at the home around 5 pm and "rang the doorbell multiple times." When she answered the door, Kortnie informed Meghan that Aspen wasn't home, but instead of leaving, Meghan allegedly became upset.
Kortnie claims Meghan refused to hand over the dress and even asked to speak with their daughter. She then told Meghan to leave the dress and leave immediately. The report states that Meghan became "upset" before eventually leaving the dress on the porch and walking away.
But here's where things get really interesting: Kortnie later called the police department to state she wanted to press charges for harassment. And guess what? Charges were indeed filed, but they were later refused in August due to a lack of evidence.
However, it seems Meghan wasn't too happy about this development and decided to take matters into her own hands. According to sources close to the situation, Meghan agreed to a consent order with Kortnie, which dismissed the case and required both parties to stay 150 feet away from each other at activities for their children.
The drama between these two women just won't quit! But what really happened on May 1? Was Meghan justified in her actions, or did she overstep boundaries?
As we reported earlier, Jim Edmonds has been married three times and has a total of seven kids with his four ex-wives. His first marriage was to LeAnn Horton, with whom he had two daughters before she passed away from colon cancer in 2015.
His second marriage was to Allison Jayne Raski, with whom he had two children, son Landon and daughter Hutton. And let's not forget his third marriage to Meghan King, with whom he welcomed three kids together before splitting in 2019.
And now, Jim is married to Kortnie O'Connor, who is a former Playboy Bunny and one-time friend of Meghan's! Talk about a tangled web of relationships!
We can't help but wonder what the future holds for these two women. Will they ever be able to put their differences aside, or will this drama continue to play out in public? One thing's for sure: we'll be watching with bated breath!
UPDATE: Meghan King's representative has released a statement claiming that the incident was "mischaracterized" and that she "never stepped inside" Jim's home. The rep also claims that Meghan was treated unfairly by the police.
But Kortnie's team is standing firm, saying they will let the facts speak for themselves. And as we all know, in the world of reality TV, the truth is often hard to come by!
Stay tuned for more updates on this juicy drama!
