Teddi Mellencamp Reveals How She Celebrated Mother’s Day With Her Kids

Teddi Mellencamp had a great Mother’s Day being “spoiled” by her kids.

Mellencamp, 41, posted a series of photos on her Instagram Story on Sunday, May 11, showcasing a fulfilling day. Despite battling stage 4 cancer, the reality star manages to divide quality time with her daughters Slate, 12, and Dove, 5, as well as her son Cruz, 10, from her estranged husband Edwin Arroyave.

“The kiddos spoiled me,” Mellencamp captioned one photo. “Feeling so happy and blessed.”

Last April, Mellencamp proudly displayed the scars from her brain surgery while attending the Unforgettable Evening dedicated to Benefiting the Women’s Cancer Research Fund at the Beverly Hilton. The surgery aimed to extract two tumors that had spread from her Melanoma diagnosis.

Teddi Mellencamp is celebrating “exciting news” amid her battle with cancer. “Honestly, the crying is already done, but I just finished with all of my scans and my tumors have significantly shrunk, which doctors believe means that this all will work and that I will be back to myself and feeling good,” Mellencamp, 43, said […]

Moments leading up to the event on April 28, Mellencamp went on Instagram to discuss her scars openly, revealing her initial emotional reaction upon seeing them. She expressed, “It’s been 76 days since I went to the ER with unbearable headaches and quickly found out I had multiple stage 4 tumors, the size of plums, in my brain and lungs.” She further detailed, “Melanoma had metastasized there and had been present for ‘6 months to a year’ without our knowledge.”

Mellencamp continued: “When I first looked at this picture, at the scars on my head and my arm, I cried. Then, I felt a warmness rush through my body and felt so much peace. Peace from the incredible support system I have in my family and friends. Peace from the outpouring of love from y’all on here. Peace in knowing my story could help somebody save their life.”

The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star revealed her diagnosis of stage 2 melanoma in October 2022. “Melanoma awareness update. Despite my anxiety, I listened to the doctors and went in for my 3-month skin check last week since my previous melanoma,” Mellencamp wrote via Instagram at the time, alongside a photo of a scar on her right shoulder.

“They said I had another abnormal spot near my last one so they did a biopsy,” she continued. “I got the call this morning: Stage 2 melanoma. Now, next Wednesday I go to an oncologist to have it cut out and come up with a game plan on next steps.”

Teddi Mellencamp and estranged husband Edwin Arroyave split nearly two weeks before The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum filed for divorce on November 1. In court documents filed on November 1 and obtained by Us Weekly, Mellencamp, 43, listed their date of separation as October 20. She cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for […]

“I so badly wanted to blow this off. ‘What could happen in 3 months?’ I thought. Apparently a lot,” she added. “This has been such a wakeup call for me, and I hope to all of you, to love and protect the skin you’re in.”

Mellencamp tied the knot with Arroyave in 2011 and the pair welcomed their first child, daughter Slate, less than a year later. She filed for divorce from Arroyave in November 2024.
