#RHOC’s Meghan Edmonds Opens Up About Being a Stepmother

Meghan Edmonds is trying to save face after her cringe inducing, crying comments about not being her stepchildren’s real mother on this week’s episode of the Real Housewives of Orange County. She took to her Bravo blog to “clarify something…that might have been lost in translation.”

Everything this girl says gets lost in translation. Let’s begin with her intro. Meghan wrote,

“As I write this I am sitting on a plane to visit Idaho for the first time. A highly anticipated vacation for my husband and me especially after yesterday when we watched LeAnn’s family lay her to rest. It was a beautiful ceremony that celebrated her life in the way she would have wanted, but it was terrible to watch my stepdaughters hurt so deeply.”

How cavalier. Next, Meghan switches gears to happier memories, sort of.

“So what a fun episode to watch with a whole lot of laughter! (Except for that time I cried!) I loved seeing us have all kinds of fun together with no husband drama or girlfriend drama!”

Yay! All kinds of fun. This next paragraph is where Meghan makes things worse – and where her message continues to be lost.

“I want to clarify something I said that might have been lost in translation: when I said I wish I was my step kids’ mom I didn’t mean I wish their moms didn’t exist. I think having a relationship with your mother is one of the most beautiful gifts a child can have and I would NEVER want to replace my step kids’ moms or step on their toes. Regardless of my relationship or my feelings toward the mother, this is about the kids.”

Words escape me. There are many great step-parents out there, it really does take a village, but boundaries continue to get crossed by Meghan. Keep reading.

“And it would be awful to see my step kids not have their mother involved in their lives. I was simply trying to stress how much I love my step kids; it’s hard to share the time we have with them, and it’s hard not to be able to make decisions for them like healthcare or school since I feel so strongly involved in their lives.”

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t their father, Jimmy, have a say so with school and healthcare? In closing, Meghan explains her thoughts on “moms” and how to treat them.

“Having said that, both moms to my step kids are amazing mothers and even though we might disagree I would never in a million years try to take away their relationship with their mom.” Meghan added, “And maybe most of all, I would never speak negatively about their moms to the kids because it’s not about me or mom, it’s about the kids and that hurts them because mom is perfect in their eyes and I intend to keep it that way.”
