Jim Edmonds‘ wife, Kortnie O’Connor, shared a family photo with Meghan King‘s three kids, nine-year-old daughter Aspen, and seven-year-old twin sons Hayes and Hart, and was met with questions from her followers.
Over a week after the 41-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County alum temporarily lost custody of the children to Jim, 55, Kortnie took to her Instagram page with a pic and statement of gratitude and responded to people wondering about Jim’s other kids, offering support to Meghan, and asking her to join the Bravo series.
“Grateful for us — the love we chose, the peace we protect, and the family we’re growing together. Happy Thanksgiving y’all!” Kortnie wrote in the caption of her family photo with Jim and the kids.
Then, in a second message, she reacted to followers wondering about Jim’s other children, who include Hayley and Lauren, whom he shared with late ex-wife Lee Ann Horton, and Sutton and Landon, whom he shares with second wife Allison Jayne Raski.
“His older children are with their mother and the others have families too! Children at that! If it’s any of your business at all! Seriously get a life or unfollow,” she stated.
Kortnie also responded to a couple of other commenters.
“Beautiful pic. Also hoping their mother is doing okay,” one person said.
“Maybe you can send your warm wishes directly to her page!” Kortnie replied.
Another wrote, “[Please] join Real Housewives so we can get the tea,” prompting Kortnie to say, “Haha! Would NEVER!!!!”
According to a November 27 report from Page Six, Jim and Meghan’s kids spent Thanksgiving with Jim and Kortnie in Tennessee after Meghan temporarily lost custody of them earlier this month. As the outlet noted, Meghan typically has supervised visitation with the children on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but changes were made to the agreement in regard to the holiday.
As RHOC fans will recall, Meghan lost custody of Aspen, Hayes, and Hart after she allegedly gave Ritalin to Hayes, despite him having never been diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and requested a school nurse do the same.
Jim and Meghan are due in court on December 9 to determine a more permanent custody arrangement.
