Meghan King Temporarily Loses Physical Custody to Jim Edmonds After CPS Report

The change followed allegations she gave a son unprescribed Ritalin, according to multiple reports.

Overview

  • A court granted Jim Edmonds sole physical custody and limited Meghan King to supervised visitation, with the arrangement described as temporary.
  • The inquiry began after a school employee contacted Child Protective Services, and a court-appointed guardian ad litem sought a temporary restraining order, per reports.
  • Multiple outlets report King allegedly gave her son Hayes Ritalin without a prescription and asked a school nurse to administer it; the claims have not been adjudicated.
  • Sources say the custody shift occurred in late October, and a hearing in early December — reported by some as Dec. 9 — will determine whether the order becomes permanent.
  • A separate May incident at Edmonds’ home led to a police report naming his wife Kortnie as the victim and King as the subject; the municipal prosecutor declined charges in August.
