Jim\u2019s third wife, Kortnie Edmonds (whom he married in 2022), called police on May 1 to complain that King had trespassed on their property after she previously made arrangements to drop off her step-daughter\u2019s dress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, \u201cMeghan refused to hand Kortnie the dress and \u2018pulled away and asked to speak to\u2019 [her daughter],\u201d according to a police report obtained by Page Six.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Kortnie told King, 40, that the former MLB star and Aspen were out attending a baseball game, King allegedly yelled for her daughter from inside the house and stood a few feet away from the doorway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
