Jim Edmonds has responded to recent allegations made by his estranged wife of five years Meghan King Edmonds.

The former reality star of Real Housewives of Orange County fame and former MLB player has been going through a tough divorce. The soon-to-be ex-couple have three children together- a daughter and twin sons.

In a new iHeart Radio Podcast, Meghan accused Jim of having an “affair” with a friend of hers, the woman who she claims to have had a threesome with soon after their marriage.

In the 56 minutes Intimate Knowledge podcast, released on January 6, 2020, Meghan King Edmonds said that she's going through "a tumultuous time in my personal life." She also added, “I found out yesterday that my ex is allegedly having an affair, seeing somebody."

She further revealed the early days of their short-lived marriage,

“I knew that Jim had this bad boy kind of past and we were newlyweds and trying to have fun. He wanted to have a threesome. And I thought about it, I thought, OK, maybe, sure so we decided to have a threesome, a consensual adult decision, with a friend of mine. I felt very comfortable with her."

Meghan then explained that she became skeptical of the said woman and her relationship with Jim. According to her, later on, when their son Hart, who has “irreversible brain damage”, underwent treatment therapy, Jim went to Cabo,

“So I find out he went to Cabo for a birthday party, while I'm just doing the thing with our son, from my understanding he takes this girl with him. The threesome girl."

According to E! News Jim responded,

“I am tired of the lies for publicity. I filed for divorce over 90 days ago. Meghan has filed as well. The marriage is and has been over.

I was invited to a surprise birthday party this weekend for one of my best friends and decided to bring a date. There is no affair going on here. It has been a plus one for the weekend. The woman I am in Cabo with is not her friend. They have not spoken in over three years.”

He went on to add,

“It’s far as threesomes go, there were a more than few initiated by Meghan and only Meghan. Recently, I have learned that she carried on with a few of these women without me being present. Would that not being considered cheating? How can she have a podcast talking about intimacy and relationships when she has neither? 

It makes me sick that she is using our child as a crutch for the whole world to see. He is responding well and thriving more every day." 

Jim Edmonds also has two daughters with his first wife Lee Ann Horton, who passed away in 2015. From his second marriage to Allison Jayne Raski, he has two children- a son and a daughter.
