In October 2019, the same month that the couple split, Jim Edmonds issued his own statement on Instagram about the cheating allegations against him. "It's one thing to be accused of something. It's another thing to be so negligent and so careless, and ruin the lives of innocent young people. I did not sleep with our nanny," Edmonds wrote (via Us Weekly), adding, "We have been treating and raising this young girl like she is our own child. For someone to accuse me of sleeping with her is not only wrong, it's disgusting and irresponsible." The former MLB star then slammed the former "Real Housewives" star in the post, alleging that she knew how to "play the Instagram game" and was putting their family in harm's way by accusing him of cheating.

Less than a year later, Edmonds took to Instagram to praise his now-fiancé, Kortnie O'Connor, while simultaneously taking a dig at King. "I was in such a dark place; one that I didn't think could happen to me. I was going through hell ending a loveless and abusive relationship," he wrote (via Today). "The lies and accusations that followed the breakup only put me deeper into a funk. Along came this beautiful woman by chance, who lit up my world and brought me back to life," he continued, adding O'Connor has made him a better person and father.
