Teddi Mellencamp is a fighter. However, this week, she delivered some more bad news. During her three seasons on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, fans learned that Teddi was never one to back down from a fight, and she would hold everyone around accountable. As of late, she has had to take a step back from the Bravoverse due to her ongoing fight against brain cancer. Now, she just revealed she has four more tumors to contend with. We’re sending her all of our best at this time.
Teddi Mellencamp vows to fight on after four new brain tumors were discovered
Us Weekly broke the news that Teddi is currently “fighting” for her life. But she is fighting “for my family’s life and all the people I love.” Teddi was first diagnosed in February with stage 4 melanoma, and it has metastasized to her lungs and brain. As fans know, she has been fighting skin cancer since 2022. The RHOBH star just three months prior had separated from her husband, Edwin Arroyave, but he has stepped up to support her while she undergoes treatment.
Teddi revealed that she hasn’t been able to tell her three children that “Moms always come back.” She shared, “I have not said that line to them since I’ve been back [from the hospital]. They all know that I’m fighting the hardest I possibly can. But I haven’t said [it] because I don’t want to lie to them. And I don’t know.” Teddi was told about four additional small tumors during an emergency MRI.
The reality TV star told the outlet, “This is definitely the hardest thing, but now it feels less hard.”
Teddi had a treatment plan in place that was set to start June 1, but due to the new tumors, things have changed. Cancer is a b*tch, but Teddi is doing the best she can making sure to provide lots of sarcasm and dark humor to get through.
From everyone here at Reality Tea, we wish you a speedy recovery, Teddi.
