This morning, the White House announced The President and the First Lady are attending a small, family wedding at the home of Valerie and Jack Owens today. Valerie Owens is Biden’s sister. You might recall her being onstage for many campaign rallies for Biden. Valerie and her sister in-law both were quick to defend President Biden from disrupters. Biden’s nephew, Cuffe Owens, married Meghan O’Toole King. Owens, 42, is a Los Angeles based attorney. Meghan King is 37.

I don’t really keep up with Meghan King much, but I got several emails today from people who feel like they just started dating! However, it looks like they were just trying to stay under the Radar. King, has three children with her second husband Jim Edmonds, Aspen King Edmonds,4, and twins Hayes Edmonds and Hart Edmonds. Her divorce from Edmonds was particularly contentious. Edmonds was accused of evicting her and their children from their home. Also, Edmonds admitted to having an affair with the nanny. This is Meghan King’s third marriage.
The bride and groom only went public with their relationship two weeks ago. I just went to look at Meghan’s Instagram and she is all over the place all over the country. The kids seem to come and go out of the pictures. Maybe I am just uniformed. But this seems weird.
I’m…yeah. I got no words.
Wow! Did not see that coming! I’m trying not to judge but I’m concerned for her kids. Just because I would be for anyone who got married that quickly.
This reminds me an awful lot of Christina Haack from “Flip or Flop.” She had two children with Tarek, married Ant Anstead and had a son with him; the child is now 2 and she divorced Ant in June of this year 2021. Now she is engaged to Joshua Hall.
I was shocked when I saw this today. Then I immediately thought of Vicki with some conspiracy theory lol
I think they’ve been together three weeks…. when ya know ya know! (Yeah right!)
Anybody want to bet on how soon the pregnancy announcement is? I haven’t heard anything, I’m just guessing….
I almost mentioned that. But she’s a bit long in the tooth for a natural pregnancy. Though my mama had me at 39 or 40. I was an accident. LOL.
Also she already has THREE KIDS UNDER FOUR. That would give her FOUR UNDER FIVE. And sweet little Hart has tons of medical issues. I don’t see how she is doing all of this traveling with three babies. I guess she leaves them with Jim? She has been kind of erratic ever since Jim cheated on her.
She just turned 37, which isn’t old. One study, published in Obstetrics & Gynecology in 2004 and headed by David Dunson (now of Duke University), examined the chances of pregnancy among 770 European women. It found that with sex at least twice a week, 82 percent of 35-to-39-year-old women conceive within a year, compared with 86 percent of 27-to-34-year-olds.
Meghan did IVF on camera when she was on RHOC and Jim allegedly happened to have some frozen sperm laying around. Thus the twins on the last pregnancy. Jim wanted a boy.
She did IVF cause of Jim’s vasectomy
That’s right, thanks. I was wondering why he had frozen sperm. I can’t remember anything these days. So maybe she is knocked up with better sperm. Having a “Biden” offspring would be a nice cushion for the future.
Have they even been together a full cycle? I don’t think you can even take a pregnancy test that fast and they had to pull together a wedding. I really don’t care what consenting adults do, but I hate when people introduce their kids to randos. I’ve had relationships that lasted years and my son literally couldn’t tell you if the dude was black, white or Asian, because he doesn’t get a whiff of a man I don’t know is going to be around FOREVER. It’s really not that hard when you have shared custody, you have all that time when they are with dad that you can enjoy with your man. Then when you have your child it’s all about them, after all you do owe it to them to give them some security. Romance is a pale shadow of the love I have for my son.
I didn’t have the luxury of sending mine to their dad’s when they were little as he was an uninvolved, unconcerned POS. When I did date, I had a 18 month rule. You’re absolutely right; The kids ALWAYS come first and it’s not that difficult to keep the kids away and separate. We find a way. I also have a shitty picker and gave up after awhile, especially having daughters…
Does seem like she has a bad picker, too. I mean, Jim was no prize. Third marriage? I don’t understand the need for the marriage so quickly -especially with kids.
To each his or her own I suppose. I do hope for the kids and her sake this turns out to be okay.
Don’t know about that since her 3 children were all from artificial insemination. She has/had some major infertility issues.
That was because Jim had a vasectomy and had frozen some sperm. I’m pretty certain that whenever they do artificial insemination with frozen they have the woman do a cycle of hormones to increase the chances of fertilization.
A wrinkled blue suit with a black tie for a wedding? Nah, nothing could possibly be wrong with this union.
That was the first thing I noticed. Did he come straight from a funeral or is it just a guess as to how the marriage is going to go?
He seems a bit odd himself. On the other hand, I do have a think for attorneys with pony tails.
If this ain’t the truth! Very, very weird. 🤔🤔🤔
They make a beautiful couple. I’m sure Jim is mad because this is a major upgrade. I hope it works out for them.
Agree. I am sitting here envisioning Jim Edmunds w. smoke coming out of his ears that his ex married into the Biden democrat clan. He has said some very “trumpy” things. I am all for it. F*ck Jim Edmonds & his wandering dick.
As far as them “just” meeting a few weeks ago,I doubt that very much. The way Megan was jetting around for months, I am sure she was w. him & it was decided that they would not draw attention to their relationship during the contentious election & aftermath w. the “Big Lie”. All people connected to either side of the visceral politics at that time were targets and fodder for rumors, accusations, and false stories to inflame media and direct attention elsewhere during those times. They were probably counseled to be discreet in order to not become victimized.
Aspen was the flower girl. All of her kids were there. He apparently had kids too. Also, there is this:
“We connected on a dating app, texted for a day or two, then spent five straight hours on the phone the first time we spoke,” King tells Brides of her whirlwind romance with her husband. “By the time that call ended, Cuffe was booked and packed for a flight to St. Louis that took off in about eight hours. Within a week, we were back on the East Coast, meeting his family, and starting to plan our future together. We didn’t leave each other’s side for weeks.” And this:
“Our wedding was about two things for us,” King told Brides magazine. “Our love for and commitment to each other, and our family — each of our families, and the new very large and very tight family that we were bonding together by getting married. That’s it.”
Not only did the couple marry at his childhood home but they will now share an anniversary with his parents, the couple told the bridal magazine.
Marry in haste….
I think Fly Boy & I knew each other a full 10 days or so before we eloped, & we met online because a 5 year-old great-granddaughter told me, “Grandma, you need to find a husband.” We just knew, too. No regrets.
I wish Meghan & her husband just as much happiness as we have experienced.
Wow that’s amazing!
I love it when you comment you have such a rich, fascinating life!
As for Meghan I hope third time’s the charm and she’s found Mr Right. I’ve been following her since she was in that show Resale Royalty many years ago.
I knew within the first 2 weeks of dating my husband that I’d marry him. Twenty plus years later we’re still married and driving each other nuts lol!
MizG,
Just curious why the need to get married? Why not just live in sin and save all the financial entanglements?
Signed,
The Spinster. 🙂
Especially why even try a third time at marriage?
Statistically, third marriages have a 73% chance of divorce.
I will let you know if she puts her house in Kirkwood Mo for sale.
Thanks Sunny.
He seems to be everything a girl like her would like. Good Job, famous political family and most of all more opportunity to be in the limelight?
We wanted to make that commitment for several reasons. Foremost because it was a real one between us. (We actually wanted a real wedding later, but everyone in the family was so busy with things like trampoline birthday parties they could not figure a way to attend so we said the heck with them & just went down to the courthouse immediately & didn’t tell anyone for 2 months.) We also realized, especially since we’d already both been widowed once, that the same thing was going to happen to one of again in a few years, & a legal marriage would make financial things much simpler. There has always been absolute trust between us. We also knew various hospitalizations were in our future (I needed knee replacement 2 months after we married), & we could be kept apart even pre-Covid without being married. Commuting across several counties was inconvenient, & why would I give up my home without such a commitment? Fly Boy’s health insurance is better than mine had been (100% vs. 80% + deductible). I $aved several thousand dollars on my knee replacement alone, & have had 3 surgeries since then, along with a broken elbow & later a broken wrist. Also, at 75 I didn’t want to hear family griping about my “boyfriend.” Marriage to me gives him better standing with my snarky family, & me with his (who also tried to talk us into just living together). He let my toy poodle sleep in his bed from Night #1. Fly Boy had a handyman & 2 cleaning ladies, plus a swimming pool & hot tub. That we both like the same Rock & Roll music is just a bonus. Almost all of these reasons were not real considerations at the time, just retrospective justifications. He just knocked my socks off & I wanted to be with him in every sense of the word, & fortunately he felt the same. That’s as true yoday as it was then, though even more so. We like it like this.
Thanks so much for all of this, MizG! This is a lot of food for thought. You know, if the opportunity ever presented itself. 🙂
I’ve found over the years that most of the opportunities I’ve had never really presented themselves. Rather, I’ve either had to seek them out or create them myself–
meh. That would require showering, putting on clothes and going out INTO THE WORLD. I’ll pass.
Three’s the charm. I love how you two are friends and lovers. It seems that as we get older, we have learned what we like and how to cut through and cut out the bullshit.
My mom and her boyfriend WOULD have married, but he had a child with wife #2 who was the age of Mom’s grandsons. He had more money than Mom, but wife #2 would have been able to get part if Mom’s money if they married.
Both families considered them married in every way that counted.
Culles. Cool name. Never heard of it before. I think he’s quirkycute. Never been a fan of Meagan. Major upgrade from creepy Jim’s perpetually constipated facial expression. Ugh. JS.
*Cuffe
I didn’t know Megan had been married twice before, who was the other one?
I didn’t know either and was super curious bc she seems young to be on her third in my world. I googled it. She evidently married a young sweetheart from hi school or college which didn’t last long or produce children. So, it was before Jim. I guess she likes being married?
What is with Megan’s hand? is she wearing a glove? My eyes instantly went there. Her hand looks odd.
It’s a lace glove. Could be vintage. Maybe the “something old” tradition.
Detective MKE hanging with the Bidens now. Quite the journey lol.
its all a bit perplexing though because she lives here in st.louis (the kids all go to a private school here) and he is an LA based attorney…how the heck is that going to work with having a marriage where they both have to live in different places but the children are enrolled in school here?
I’m not sure how 3 year olds are in school. And she recently posted that Aspen who is 4 and a halfish, was attending a brand new school. So apparently they are in LA. Hart’s doctor is also out there I believe. I remember her flying back and forth for treatments for him.
The kids go to the nursery school that is attached to aspens preschool …which is also attached to where Jim’s older kids go to school so they are definitely here (st Louis)
Aspen attends Visitation Academy in StL. They are known for their red uniform and she had a school pic up this month. It’s a very pricey private Catholic all-girls school.
The boys attend Rohan Woods private school in St Louis. She posts proudly the schools so it’s no secret. Also very exclusive and expensive.
Jim’s other kids live in StL as well but they attend different schools.
Seeing that Cuffe is an entertainment lawyer, I don’t see them moving to StL.
She did try to get sole custody early on in the divorce. She has also been open about wanting to return on Housewives.
Test
Sorry for the test! I changed jobs 4 years ago and only just returned to the land of the living, I couldn’t remember my login. Anyway:so happy to see you gain Tamara and yes, I didn’t know Megan had been married before either!
God, I hope (for Meghan’s sake) that I don’t have to eat my words. But (almost) ANYONE has got to be better than Jim Edmonds. Except Brooks Ayers.
No doubt this is quick and surprising, but I hope it brings everyone involved joy forever. Here’s to love!
I hope she keeps her kids away from cousin Hunter.
