But King used the traumatic time as a learning experience and managed to reshape her life as a single mom — and a first-time homeowner!

“I learned to single parent three preschoolers during Covid and managed to save enough money to leave my former family home and proudly provide a much smaller, much cozier PERFECT home for my kids,” she wrote, adding that the purchase was “tumultuous” and she couldn’t share it publicly at the time because of “divorce circumstances.”

“I couldn’t celebrate or announce this monumental victory …anyone going through a divorce with kids knows the internal tug of wanting to share special news with kids weighed against the consequences that come when they share that news with their other half of their family… it’s very real and very sad,” she explains.

“In my first year of home ownership I continued putting myself back together and learned how to balance single motherhood with self-care. And at roughly the one year anniversary of buying my house I got married.

Kingfinalized her divorcefrom Edmonds, 51, earlier this year. The exes, who tied the knot in October 2014, share daughter Aspen, 4½, and twin sons Hart and Hayes, 3.

They announced their separation in October 2019, following rumors that the retired MLB prohad an affair with their former nanny. The split came after headmitted to sending sexual text messagesand “lewd photos” to another woman that June.

The couple teased a glimpse of their home last month, when sheposted a family photo of their first Halloweentogether with her kids.

“So much can change in one year, in two years. You are strong, you are worthy, and you can do what I did. It will hurt and you will cry, but you will prevail. You have no other choice to make the decision every single day to find happiness. I believe in you,” said King.
