The Instagram Post

King, 41, wore a red dress and walked beneath a chandelier while describing carrying “loss in lonely rooms.” She added, “I didn’t break. I bent, adjusted, kept going when disappearing would’ve been easier.”

Her final line: “2025 is over, yet I stand.”

Custody Shift

In December, News Of Los Angeles confirmed the couple’s three children would live with Jim Edmonds full-time after a Child Protective Services investigation.

Key points of the agreement:

  • King sees the kids a few weeks each summer
  • The custody hearing was canceled after the deal was struck
  • Steve Honig, representing Edmonds, said the terms serve “the best interests of the children”

Timeline Leading to Loss of Custody

A source told News Of Los Angeles the investigation began when King allegedly:

  • Gave Ritalin to one son multiple times
  • Asked a school nurse to administer the unprescribed drug
  • Had someone from the school contact CPS

After the report, a court-appointed guardian filed a temporary restraining order against King. She later received supervised visitation while Edmonds obtained sole physical custody.

Earlier Hints

In December, King reposted a meme that read: “It was a tough year, but at least I did not buy a Labubu.”

She added her own comment: “Butttttt a bunch of ‘super-rare’ stuff happened J/s 🤷‍♀️.”
