If Meghan Edmonds and Jim Edmonds were half as interesting when they were on reality TV as they’ve been since their Real Housewives of Orange County exit, they’d probably still be on the show. These two are just the messiest exes.
From the sexting scandal to the allegations that he had an affair with their nanny, the headlines just don’t stop with this former couple. They argue about child custody and their past threesomes in public. There is just way more juicy information to talk about these days than when they were on the show.
Jim revisited his time on Real Housewives of Orange County during an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Highway. According to Us Weekly, Jim said, “I do care what people think but I am starting to realize that the people who are commenting are Housewives fans and then I was portrayed a little different and that’s fine because that’s not me, that’s not my reality, that was not even my show, I just happen to be on it.”
But, he was barely on it. We even saw Meghan conceive their daughter, via IVF, with her mother in the room, not her actual husband. Nevertheless, his few surly appearances didn’t leave the best impression on the fans.

And, low and behold, Jim is blaming the editing. Jim shared, “Their idea, what I was told by Terry Dubrow right away, they’re gonna make you look bad because if your wife doesn’t perform they’ve got something to fall back on … which is you two arguing. So I kind of accepted that.”
So, I guess that’s his way of saying Meghan “didn’t perform.” I can’t argue with that one though. Other than leading the charge against Brooks Ayers for faking cancer, her storylines fell flat. Her quest to look for her relatives in Ireland, by randomly approaching people on the street, instead of undergoing genetic testing to track people down was just so inane and extremely boring.

Jim continued, “It was really funny because what they did, they spliced stuff so bad.” Of course, they did.
Jim went on to explain, “They would show me, I was waiting for [Meghan] to come downstairs, I’m sitting on the couch on my phone I’m just flipping through it and she comes downstairs and I put it down and she asks me something like a hot topic and they slice it back to me on my phone, which I was on my phone thirty minutes prior to her coming down the stairs. … They make you look like you don’t care and all that.” Again, he wasn’t even there when their daughter was conceived.

Even with his gripes with his portrayal, he did say it was a “great experience” where he made “some good friends” and even some “really fun enemies,” naming Vicki Gunvalson and Kelly Dodd.
