Teddi Mellencamp, the 43-year-old former star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, made her first public appearance since undergoing emergency brain surgery last month. The outing in Los Angeles on Tuesday marked an emotional milestone for Teddi, who had been grappling with significant health challenges. Spending Time with Close Friends in Los Angeles Teddi was spotted enjoying lunch with her good friend, Kyle Richards, and another companion. The trio were seen leaving a frozen yogurt shop, with Teddi keeping a low profile in a white cardigan with green stripes paired with matching green pants. To protect her privacy, she wore a baseball cap and oversized sunglasses that shielded her face from the public eye. Health Struggles and Tumor Diagnosis Teddi’s health battle has been public since February, when doctors discovered multiple tumors on her brain following weeks of severe headaches. She has openly shared the details of her health journey, including an emotional video from her car announcing her hospital release after 16 days of recovery. In that video, Teddi expressed immense gratitude for the support she’s received, captioning the clip: “16 days and I get to go home.

Following the surgery, he shared how painful it was to see Teddi in such distress, writing on social media that he’d never seen her in so much pain, but that she was grateful for the love and support pouring in from fans. Teddi’s Recovery and Family Focus Despite the ongoing health battle, sources close to Teddi shared that her divorce from Edwin is currently “off the table.” The couple, who share three children together, is now focusing on Teddi’s recovery. They are putting family first as Teddi moves forward with her treatment, with Edwin fully committed to helping her get better. A recent update from a family friend indicated that Teddi is expected to return home soon, where she will continue to recover surrounded by her loved ones.
