Last September, Meghan King reported to the police that her former spouse, Jim Edmonds, allegedly shared her phone number with escorts, enabling them to harass her years ago—an accusation Edmonds has strongly refuted.

Edmonds, a former professional baseball player, was married to King from 2014 to 2021, and they are parents to three children: nine-year-old daughter Aspen, and seven-year-old twin sons Hart and Hayes.

King, aged 41, made her allegations against 55-year-old Edmonds while addressing a different situation with the Kirkwood Police Department in the St. Louis area in September 2025.

She informed the police that an anonymous individual was calling her with ‘crazed overt threats’ directed at her and her children. A police officer listened to two such disturbing voicemails left by the suspect, as noted in a police report accessed by TMZ.

King, who temporarily lost custody of her children the previous year but later settled for them to reside full-time with Edmonds, claimed during her September police report that her ex-husband was ‘losing his mind’ over their custody disagreements.

When asked if she believed the recent threatening calls were connected to Edmonds, King expressed uncertainty but alleged that, years prior, he had provided her number to escorts, instructing them to harass her, as outlined in the police documentation.

Edmonds’ representative Steve Honig staunchly repudiated the claims, saying: ‘This is the first anyone is hearing of this, and it’s absurd. Jim is spending his time in Tennessee raising his kids and doesn’t have time for such nonsense.’ 

A police report from last September says Meghan King accused her ex-husband Jim Edmonds of having leaked her phone number to escorts years ago, an allegation he ifrmly denied

He declined to provide any further comment to the Daily Mail, which has also reached out to King’s representative and the Kirkwood Police Department for comment.

According to the police report, King went to the station in person in Kirkwood this past September to report the new round of threatening calls she allegedly got.

She told the authorities that the calls had intensified over the preceding two days, but that she had been receiving them for two months.

King characterized the threats as having become increasingly incoherent, saying that although she initially interacted with the caller, she eventually ceased doing so and blocked the number – only for the caller to then contact her via new numbers.

An officer listened to two voicemails from someone who sounded female threatening to hurt, grab or kill King and her children and saying King would ‘go to jail.’

In the words of the police report: ‘The suspect speaks calmly at times and quickly at others, using frequently-repeated phrases or details in a rambling and erratic manner.’

The report noted that King had at times been rung up by unknown callers, as a former reality star famous from The Real Housewives of Orange County. 

King was asked if she felt Edmonds had any link to the new threatening calls, and she replied that she did not know, but she did make note of their custody battle and then leveled the allegation about his supposedly giving her number to escorts years prior, according to the police report.

Edmonds, a retired baseball player, was married to King from 2014 until 2021 and they share three children – daughter Aspen, nine, and twin sons Hart and Hayes, seven 

King temporarily lost custody of her children late last year and has since reached an agreement for them to live full-time with Edmonds; she is pictured with them this past December 

She told the officer that ‘after an overwhelming wave of phone calls and texts, she received a text from a number not known to her, which included a photo of the text sent by [Edmonds] containing instructions to harass her,’ per the police report.

In response to the new round of threats from the female-sounding caller, an investigation was launched and ‘a department-wide email was sent requesting a close patrol of [King’s] residence,’ according to the police report.

Multiple sources reported this past November that King had temporarily lost custody of her children a couple of months earlier, following a Child Protective Services (CPS) investigation instigated by a call from a school employee, via Us Weekly.

An insider then claimed that a school nurse called CPS after being asked by King to provide her seven-year-old son Hayes with Ritalin, according to Page Six.

Ritalin is a prescription medication used to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), with which Hayes has reportedly never been diagnosed.

The source alleged that King had given Ritalin to Hayes on multiple occasions, in spite of his purportedly not having a prescription for the drug. 

In December it emerged King and Edmonds had arrived at an arrangement for the children to live with him and his current wife Kortnie full-time in Tennessee, and to stay with their mother for a few weeks every summer.
