Tamra Judge is offering her support to former The Real Housewives of Orange County costar Meghan King.
After Us Weekly exclusively revealed that King, 41, lost custody of her three kids with ex-husband Jim Edmonds following an investigation by Child Protective Services, Judge, 58, reacted to the news on social media.
“Thoughts and prayers ❤️,” she wrote in the comments section of a post about the news. “You’re an amazing mom.”
King and Judge were costars on The Real Housewives of Orange County between seasons 10 and 12.
When announcing her departure from the Bravo reality show in January 2018, King expressed gratitude for finding new friends like Judge.
“I have made soul sisters in Shannon Beador and Tamra Judge and that can’t be lost,” she wrote in her blog. “They have touched my heart and I would do anything for them and I know they feel the same way about me — what a gift to have found that on RHOC!”
Although King hasn’t been on Bravo in many years, the former Orange County resident has recently made headlines while residing in Missouri.
Multiple sources told Us that the decision to strip King of physical custody was made in the past couple of months. (She shares 8-year-old daughter Aspen and 7-year-old twins Hart and Hayes with Edmonds, 55.)
The former Bravo star was granted supervised visitation while Edmonds has sole physical custody. Per the source, the decision is temporary and a hearing will be held on whether the custody arrangement will become permanent in December.
King has not publicly commented on the situation.
This isn’t the first time Judge has offered her public support to King.
After Edmonds filed for divorce in October 2019 following five years of marriage, King received encouragement from Judge.
“Big hugs,” the “Two T’s in a Pod” podcast host commented via an Instagram post. “You are a strong woman Megs. Love you.”
As King experiences another difficult time in her life, she is receiving support from other costars.
In a TikTok video posted on Wednesday, November 19, Kelly Dodd called her former costar “an excellent mother.”
“I just pray that she gets her babies back,” Dodd — who starred on multiple seasons of RHOC with King — continued. “Everyone, just pray for Meghan and her family. Those boys and that daughter need their mom. They need their mother, and it’s terrible what is going on right now.”
Although King tries to keep her children off of social media, she recently documented a special celebration this past summer.
While celebrating Hayes and Hart’s 7th birthday, King shared a family photo without Edmonds.
“This is the third time they’ve had their bday party @epiphanylanes! Birthdays 4, 5, and now 7!),” she wrote via Instagram on June 7. “Fun fact: Hayes was born about 45 min before Hart. When Hayes arrived I immediately named him ‘Hart.’ Then Hart arrived and I said, ‘This one is Hart.’ So I switched their names. They love the story about when they used to have the other ones’ name 💞 👥.”
