In the first interview since her split from her husband, the former 'Real Housewives' star says the 'facade' the former MLB star presents 'is false and manipulative to the public' and she's 'sick of the abuse.'

AceShowbiz - Meghan King Edmonds has spoken up against her estranged husband Jim Edmonds in her first interview since their split. Responding the former athlete's previous statement in which he denied that he had an affair with their nanny Carly Wilson and said that he was "saddened tremendously" that Meghan was hurting, she sarcastically tells Us Weekly, "I have to say that when he gave the 'nice' interview a few days ago, he was completely speaking for me."

The 35-year-old says that she has not spoken on the phone with Jim since news of their split broke, adding that his statement made it sound like she had agreed to work on their issues, which didn't represent her feelings. "That's not fair to me. He is not my mouthpiece, and I believe the facade he presented is false and manipulative to the public while using and taking advantage of me," she explains.

Meghan, who says that she has kept things "calm, consistent, routine-based and light" at her home in the wake of the drama surrounding their separation, goes on slamming her ex. "I have endured prolific controlling by Jim and it isn't slowing down," so she claims. "Even when I make an unassuming post on Instagram, he hurls insults at me for a battery of made-up indiscretions. I'm sick of the abuse and I won't engage anymore - and I don't have to."

"The Real Housewives of Orange County" alum, who accuses her estranged husband of cheating on her with "much younger women," goes on revealing that she was blindsided when he filed for divorce. "Divorce had been discussed as something that could be possible but I truly thought he could change and work through his demons," she says. "Divorce never really crossed my mind. I had to find a divorce lawyer in a matter of hours. He filed so quickly that it seems to me (and others) it had been ready to go and he just was waiting for an event to happen so he could pull the trigger."

On the allegations that their nanny had an affair with Jim, Meghan denied she leaked the story of the public. "I only ever privately alleged that Carly and my husband had an inappropriate relationship. It was Carly, Jim, and Jim's daughter Hayley who repeated references such 'allegations' in the media and blew up this story," so she says.

After filing for divorce from Meghan in October following a dispute over his alleged affair with their 22-year-old nanny Carly, Jim told Us Weekly, "It saddens me tremendously that my wife is hurt." Regretting how their private life has been exposed on media, he added, "After having a few days to digest the situation, I realize that something that occurred in a split second spiraled out of control with no way to stop it."

"We were both separately surprised to find out that the media had received details of our private situation without our knowledge," so he claimed, adding, "I have way too much love for my wife and kids for this to happen and it's time for us to get back to the private life we used to live ... Meghan is a truly special woman who my kids are so fortunate to have as their mother ... I love my family and will make it right again."
