No judgement from me on TV viewing habits. I'm all for mindless entertainment once in a while.
Her blog post really resonated with me. My WH cheated on me in the exact same way, only we aren't public figures. My WH also insisted there was no physical touching, therefore it wasn't so bad, but he did admit it was still cheating. Technology has made it easier than ever to cheat. I have a love/hate relationship with smart phones.

I don’t watch those shows myself, but that post was heartbreaking. I hate that anyone goes through this. I don’t watch the Kardashians either - but my heart broke for Khloe too. This shit sucks. It’s been 3 years for me and I can still remember that pain like it was yesterday.
I really wish there were more honest depictions of it in the media instead of glamorizing it. It’s really, really terrible.

It is so amazing to me how ego driven some of the sports figures are. I have forgotten how many women Wilt Chamberlain said he slept with but I think it might be 10,000. Whatever is said to these men in their formative years, about how wonderful they are, is the beginning of narcissisism. I think Meghan Edmonds was right on the money when she said all that glitter means absolutely nothing. There is nothing that can replace a loving, trusting relationship. No matter how hard they try that is going to be in the middle of their marriage for the rest of their lives. By the way, it is my understanding that his second wife died. I don’t believe Meghan was a part of his life then but I might be wrong.
I happened to see her one day on Instagram and thought she and her children were charming. I have never seen him so I know nothing about him other than he is a cheater. That’s all I need to know.

Read a little about the making of Tiger Woods. From what I've read, he is an all around horrible person, not just because he's a cheater.

His first wife that he had two (now adult) daughters with (and according to the show, a good relationship with) died.
His second wife he has two tween-age kids with, and Meghan made some comment on the show about her not being a "happy person," but the other OC ladies also thought Meghan was trying to act like her step children were too much her own children, to the point where she made some odd comment about how she wished she had given birth to her stepchildren because that's how much she loved them. The other divorced OC members that were moms basically said (iirc) they would want their children's stepmoms to love and take care of them, but if an ex's new wife said that she wished she had given birth to their children, that wouldn't be cool.
The is she/isn't she an OW is because his divorce from his second wife was finalized in 2014, and he and Meghan got married in 2014, and had made some comments that made it sound like they had been involved with each other at least two years prior.

“Regrettably, I had a lapse in judgment. I engaged in an inappropriate conversation with this person, at no time was there any type of relationship or physical contact. Absolutely none.
This is someone trying to profit from my name. I am aware she has done this to others in the past. Clearly, I made a very poor decision to expose myself and my family to this type of person. For this, I am truly sorry and sought forgiveness from my wife.
I’m outraged over the intent to ruin my family and intend to take legal action. We were never having any problems in our marriage. My attorney is in possession of documents wherein this person has admitted fabricating large portions of her ‘story. -Jim Edmonds' statement”
Wow. Just... wow.
Lapse in judgement sounds so much better than, "I chose to cheat on my wife." And I couldn't help but wonder if he realized the pun he was making when he used the word expose??? Except he wasn't exposing his family to this person, he was exposing his dick!!
He's outraged over the OW's attempt to ruin his family? Hm... guess it never occured to him that if he hadn't cheated, then some strange woman wouldn't have been able to blackmail him.
I *love* how he was so kind to Meghan to throw in that they were never having marital problems though... while conveniently still not really accepting full responsibility for there being problems with him, hence his regrettable "lapse in judgment."
