Former RHOC Star Meghan King Receives Support Amid Custody Battle and Advocates for Human Rights
Former Real Housewives of Orange County star Meghan King recently posted a message on her Instagram Stories expressing her support for human rights. This comes after she lost custody of her three children to her ex-husband, Jim Edmonds. The custody decision was made following an investigation by Child Protective Services, with Edmonds now having sole physical custody of their kids. King retains supervised visitation rights, and a hearing is scheduled for December to determine further custody arrangements.
King and Edmonds were married from 2014 to 2019, with Edmonds filing for divorce in 2019 and finalizing it in 2021. Edmonds is now married to Kortnie O’Connor. The former couple has had a tumultuous relationship, with King alleging emotional abuse by Edmonds. However, Edmonds denied these claims and emphasized his commitment to coparenting their children in a respectful manner.
Former RHOC stars Tamra Judge and Kelly Dodd have shown support for King during this challenging time. Judge commented on an Instagram post, praising King as an amazing mom, while Dodd expressed her hope for King to regain custody of her children. King was a full-time Housewife on RHOC from 2015 to 2017 and announced her departure in 2019, citing the relationships she formed with her co-stars as a valuable part of her experience on the show.
