Retired baseball player Jim Edmonds, the husband of Real Housewives of Orange County star Meghan King Edmonds, is speaking out in response to allegations of cheating.

Explicit text messages between Jim and another woman were leaked online on Thursday (June 13), showing that he allegedly sent lewd photos to the woman. AllAboutTheTEA.com claimed that Jim had an affair with the woman while married to his second wife and that they reconnected in 2018 while Meghan was pregnant with their twins. The website claims that Jim even sent an explicit video to the woman on the day that Meghan gave birth to the twins.

In a statement given to Us Weekly, Jim apologizes for his “poor decision.”

“Regrettably, I had a lapse in judgment. I engaged in an inappropriate conversation with this person,” Jim said. “At no time was there any type of relationship or physical contact. Absolutely none. This is someone trying to profit from my name. I am aware she has done this to others in the past.”

“Clearly, I made a very poor decision to expose myself and my family to this type of person. For this, I am truly sorry and sought forgiveness from my wife,” he continued. “I’m outraged over the intent to ruin my family and intend to take legal action. We were never having any problems in our marriage. My attorney is in possession of documents wherein this person has admitted fabricating large portions of her ‘story.’”

Jim ended the statement by reiterating that he “never had any sort of a physical relationship outside of my marriage with her or anyone else.”
