King originally claimed on her blog in 2020 that Hart was diagnosed with PVL – which she wrote was ‘often a precursor diagnosis to cerebral palsy’ – before saying he was also diagnosed with ‘hypotonic cerebral palsy.’

‘She didn’t even get the kid’s medical condition right,’ Honig noted.

Since ending their five-year marriage last year, Jim and The Real Housewives of Orange County guest star only communicate through a court-ordered app called Our Family Wizard.

‘It makes me feel safer because it makes me feel like the verbal abuse will be toned down a little bit more,’ Meghan told the Divorced Not Dead podcast on July 13.

‘Unfortunately, and shockingly, that’s not always the case, but it does give me a little bit more solace knowing that I have eyes that can be on it.’

King added: ‘We have [a worse] relationship than we did when we split up. It’s horrible. It’s so detrimental for the kids [and] for us as individuals. It sucks.’

The Missouri-born blonde also said she was more ‘mature’ than the restaurateur and ‘maybe perhaps he was damaged.’

‘If Meghan wants to improve her ability to co-parent with Jim, it might be a good idea for her to stop constantly disparaging him,’ Honig blasted.

Meghan and Jim are also parents of Hart’s twin brother Hayes and five-year-old daughter Aspen, who burst into tears after she told them she was replacing their beloved SUV with a new one on Wednesday.

‘This is the last ride in this car forever,’ King – who boasts 1.4M social media followers – announced.

‘Mom!’ Aspen exclaimed. ‘Are you going to get this car again?’
