Meghan King, who starred in three seasons of The Real Housewives of Orange County, has lost temporary custody of her three children after allegedly giving her son Ritalin that he wasn’t prescribed, according to People. King, 41, reportedly gave one of her sons Ritalin multiple times and asked the school nurse to administer it to him, even though he didn’t have a prescription, a source told People. After trying to allegedly convince the school nurse to give him the ADHD medication, “somebody from the school called CPS and they opened an investigation,” the source said. King has three children, Aspen, 8, and twins Hart and Hayes, 7, with former professional baseball player Jim Edmonds. Ritalin is an ADHD medication. In the meantime, Edmonds, who split with King in 2019, received temporary full physical custody of their children, with King allowed supervised visitation, Us reported. Representatives for King did not respond immediately to the Daily Beast’s request for comment.
