RHOC’s Jim Edmonds poses with new girlfriend as ex Meghan spends sad Mother’s Day alone with their three kids

REAL Housewives of Orange County star Meghan King Edmonds had a Mother's Day she wasn't quite expecting.

The 35-year-old reality television star shared her heartache at spending the special day by herself.

Meghan - who split from husband Jim last year - explained that she's been struggling as a single mother of three.

"I wasn’t looking forward to this Mother’s Day. Quarantined with 3 screaming toddlers for 9 weeks while trying to work hasn’t exactly been a prime environment for me to feel like I’m earning any mother-of-the-year awards," she wrote.

"Being prisoners in our home has killed our spirits and crushed our souls."

"Then add this: it’s my first Mother’s Day I’m spending without a partner, something I NEVER envisioned," the Intimate Knowledge podcast co-host continued.

She appeared to be reflecting on their split, and the loss of their commitment to each other.

"'Families are created out of unconditional love' I thought. 'Two parents weather life’s storms but always remain together to celebrate the subsequent rainbows' I thought.

"But that is not my story and that makes me feel deeply regretful - like I failed my children by not giving them a nuclear family."

Meghan shared three children - 1-year-old twin boys Hart and Hayes, and 3-year-old daughter Aspen, with her ex.

This was the first Mother's Day since their split.

Jim has moved on with new girlfriend Kortnie O'Connor and he flaunted pictures of the couple together over Instagram regardless of the special day.

Kortnie - the woman Jim and Meghan had a threesome with - made her relationship with Jim official this year and has been posting pictures from the mansion the married couple previously shared, after he moved her in.

The Real Housewives star previously shaded her ex for moving on so quickly and made the shocking revelation.

“Why does Jim have to go back to this low-hanging fruit?

"Can’t she go find somebody else? And just disrespectful on his part,” she said on her Intimate Knowledge podcast at the time.

“It’s just so hurtful. I never told anyone that I had a threesome because it just felt just like something I wasn’t proud of, and now this is the woman [he] is with and spending money on her when he can’t even come to give me the money that I need?” she said.
