Meghan King Agrees Children Will Live With Jim Edmonds in Tennessee With Summer Visits Only

The privately negotiated plan followed a school report that prompted a CPS investigation and led both sides to cancel a December court hearing.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report the agreement places the three children full-time with Edmonds and his wife in Tennessee, with King’s in-person time limited to a few weeks each summer.
  • Edmonds’ representative confirmed the scheduled custody hearing was called off after the parties reached a deal described as in the children’s best interests.
  • The arrangement comes after a late-October, school-initiated CPS probe in which sources alleged King gave one son unprescribed Ritalin; those claims have been reported but not adjudicated.
  • Following the investigation, King was granted supervised visitation while Edmonds received physical custody, and the children spent the Thanksgiving holiday with their father and stepmother.
  • A guardian ad litem pursued emergency measures during the temporary phase, and a separate May restraining-order case tied to a police call involving Edmonds’ wife was later dismissed after a private agreement.
