Joe Biden’s nephew Cuffe Biden Owens and wild child ex-Real Housewives of OC star Meghan King split

The marriage between Joe Biden‘s nephew Cuffe Biden Owens and Meghan King appears to be over, just two months after the pair got hitched. 

King, 37, who had been married twice before and is a former Real Housewives of Orange County star, is said to have been telling friends that the couple have broken up just weeks after asking her followers online for ‘marriage tips’.

The split seems to have come as quickly as the pair met, got engaged and then married with King even appealing to her followers on social media, asking for tips on how to keep the romance in a marriage alive.

Although the exact date the couple began dating is not known, they only decided to go ‘official’ on Instagram in September just weeks before tying the knot on October 11. 

The couple got married at Owens’ childhood home in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania with he president and First lady Dr. Jill Biden were both guests at the nuptials.    

The ceremony came weeks after King first made the relationship public in an Instagram post shared on September 25, which featured a picture of the couple embracing while enjoying drinks at a bar. 

‘Trying my best to avoid any cheesy introductions like “my main squeeze”… so just meet my man,’ she wrote to her legions of fans.  

But just two weeks ago, there were signs of trouble in paradise with King posting a photo of herself spread out on a hotel bed telling followers that it felt as though she had been ‘married for a million years’ and asking fans to share advice to help keep the marriage alive. 

‘We feel like we’ve been married for a million years (thanks to marrying later in life and with a lot of history and, well, kids) so a two month anniversary staycation was called for. Tomorrow real life commences but a few hours in a hotel will do a new marriage good. Please, give us more good marriage tips!’ she begged.  

Some on social media had begun to suspect that all was not well in the lives of the newlyweds with Owens rarely appearing in any of King’s photos. 

The last photo on Instagram in which Owens appears was on November 24, just six weeks after their wedding.

Owens is the son of Biden’s sister, Valerie Owens, who has played a pivotal role in her brother’s political career including as adviser to his triumphant 2020 presidential run. 

King also removed his last name from her social media pages. 

‘Not trying to be rude or offensive here! Just genuinely curious…..where is your husband?’ asked one. Another chimed in: ‘Where is your husband? Never see him.’

Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, King’s former husband, ex professional baseball player, Jim Edmonds, revealed how she called him out of the blue the day before her wedding to the President’s nephew.

He said, ‘She called me to tell me she was getting married. It was the first I heard anything about it. I thought it was a joke – they’d been dating for about four weeks!

‘Then I wondered, ”Is she pregnant?” But is it even possible to know that just four weeks after the first date?’

‘We connected on a dating app, texted for a day or two, then spent five straight hours on the phone the first time we spoke,’ King told Brides.com of her whirlwind love affair.     

‘By the time that call ended, Cuffe was booked and packed for a flight to St. Louis that took off in about eight hours. Within a week, we were back on the East Coast, meeting his family, and starting to plan our future together. We didn’t leave each other’s side for weeks.’ 

King had previously been married to a classmate, Brad McDill, but they separated in October 2011. She married MLB superstar Jim Edmonds in 2014 and divorced after five years over  allegations that Edmonds was unfaithful. 

The couple finalized their divorce in May following years of back and forth bitterness due to his infidelities, which included when he allegedly sent photos of his penis to a woman the day Meghan gave birth to their twins. King also accused him of cheating one of their nannies, Carly Wilson.

During their wild seven-year marriage, the couple engaged in threesomes with Playboy bunny Kortnie O’Connor – who Edmonds is now dating. 

King said she felt betrayed by O’Connor and her ex-husband’s relationship as she counted the nude model as a friend. She has also spoken about her regret about the threesomes – while Edmonds insists King wanted even more.   

Meghan King, was born in St Louis in September 1984 to her parents Julie and Kevin King, Meghan worked as a sales executive starred on season 10 of the Bravo reality program Real Housewives of Orange County before hanging up her reality hat in season 12.  

She studied marketing at the University of Mississippi before taking a job as a sales rep for a pathology software firm and earned the position of Brand Ambassador and Director of Sales for Sweat Cosmetics.

She has also started up her own business and created her own personal line of candles and currently co-hosts the the ‘Intimate Knowledge’ podcast.

The reality start tied the knot with her University of Mississippi classmate Brad McDill at the age of 22.

‘I was too young. I didn’t even know myself,’ King told Page Six of her first failed marriage which lasted from 2007 to 2011. ‘I wanted to be like my parents’ perfect marriage. I just thought I was going to have the same love story, because why not?’

After marrying ex-MLB player Jim Edmonds in 2014 the couple appeared on TLC’s Say Yes to the Dress. She was thrust fully in to the spotlight in 2015 appearing on RHOC.  

Megan then gave birth to their first child, Aspen King, who was born on Thanksgiving in 2016. In 2018, she and Jim welcomed twin boys named Hart and Hayes. 

Later that year, she revealed she and Jim’s marriage was in trouble saying the pair had ‘become complacent in our lives and have taken each other for granted’ in a lengthy blog post.

‘Our marriage needs it. We’ve had three babies in under two years. … We need shining and buffing. We need US back … and the sad part is that we never even realized ‘we’ were missing.’

But it was later revealed that Jim had allegedly been corresponding with a woman including pictured and video of him masturbating while his wife was pregnant with twins.  

‘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,’ Jim wrote in a flat denial of the story. 

‘Clearly, I made a very poor decision to expose myself and my family to this type of person,’ he continued. ‘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.’

But the damage was done and the relationship fel lapart. Meghan opened up about her husband’s infidelity in June 2019. 

She wrote that Jim had explained he had not been physical with the woman he had been in contact with but that he had ‘paid her off to protect me so I’d never find out.’ 

‘Physical or not, he still had an affair and he admits this to me,’ Meghan rationalized.  

‘I only blame my husband for his actions: he made the choice to betray my trust and jeopardize our marriage. His recklessness also allowed this woman to profit from my heartbreak.’
