On July 20, Meghan King opened up about her son’s “journey with his Cerebral Palsy.” In the Instagram post, she also discussed the “roadblocks” they face as he’s learning new skills.
The Real Housewives of Orange County alum revealed she’s trying to potty-train, which has been “difficult.” The new training is urgent, she expressed, because his school starts in a month, and being potty-trained is one of the requirements.

According to a representative of Jim Edmonds (her ex-husband and the father of her children), Jim had little appreciation for the recent post.
The rep, Steve Honig, who spoke with TMZ, said Jim wants Meghan to respect their kids’ privacy. He claims she’s placing their son in the spotlight — along with his challenges.
Jim also said Meghan was wrong when she expressed that the child has “Cerebral Palsy.” According to the ex-husband, the child has periventricular leukomalacia. TMZ said the medical condition is “a softening of the white brain tissue near the ventricles.”
The ex also insinuated that Meghan was seeking attention. His rep added, “If Meghan wants to improve her ability to co-parent with Jim, it might be a good idea for her to stop constantly disparaging him.”
Meghan and Jim’s feud has been spotlighted for years, beginning with their contentious divorce. Early on, Meghan publicly accused him of cheating with multiple women.
Recently, the former Housewife had a whirlwind romance with Cuffe Owens, the nephew of President Joe Biden. The marriage lasted two months and reportedly ended with an annulment.
