Teddi Mellencamp, former star of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” recently opened up about her new relationship during an episode of her podcast, “Two Ts In a Pod,” cohosted by “Real Housewives of Orange County” star Tamra Judge.
The 43-year-old reality star, who is currently battling cancer, confirmed that she is dating someone and described him as kind, caring, and private. She revealed that he is not married, does not have children, and values his privacy. Mellencamp explained that she chose not to disclose his name out of respect for his wishes to keep a low profile.
In the midst of her ongoing cancer battle, Mellencamp found love again following her split from husband Edwin Arroyave after 13 years of marriage. The couple shares three children together: daughters Slate, 12, and Dove, 5, as well as son Cruz, 10. Despite their divorce, Mellencamp and Arroyave have maintained a close relationship as they co-parent their children.
The new romance comes at a challenging time for Mellencamp, who revealed in February that her melanoma had progressed to stage 4 and spread to her lungs and brain. Despite her health struggles, she remains positive and continues to share updates with her fans on social media.
In a recent Instagram post, Mellencamp shared her journey of regrowing her hair after undergoing cancer treatment. She addressed questions from fans about why she doesn’t shave her entire head, explaining that she lost patches of hair during radiation and the regrowth process is ongoing. Despite the challenges, she remains grateful for her progress and the support she receives from her followers.
Mellencamp’s openness about her personal life and health struggles has resonated with her fans, who admire her strength and resilience in the face of adversity. As she navigates her new relationship and continues her cancer treatment, Mellencamp remains a source of inspiration for many.
