Former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” personality Teddi Mellencamp opened up about an unaired moment involving her husband, Edwin Arroyave.
During a September 2024 episode of her podcast, “Two Ts In A Pod,”co-hosted by “Real Housewives of Orange County” star Tamra Judge, Mellencamp, who appeared as a full-time RHOBH star for two seasons, said she and Arroyave had an uncomfortable conversation during her first season on the Bravo series. She said that if the scene had aired, it “would have ended [them]” as a couple.
According to Mellencamp, RHOBH season 8 producers encouraged her and her husband to talk about potentially having more children.
“We start talking about it and Edwin says the quote, ‘Then you’re going to get big again. Are you okay with that?’” said Mellencamp.
Mellencamp said she was upset about her husband’s comment.
“I honestly wanted to die in that moment,” said Mellencamp on her podcast episode.
She said, however, she did not want to show negative emotion while the cameras were rolling. Mellencamp also said she and her husband had a heated moment together after their on-camera date.
“Then we got into the [expletive] car, and I was like ‘I am disgusted that you said that. I’m furious that you said that. You embarrassed me, you hurt me. You know my past issues.’ Like all of these things,” said Mellencamp.
Mellencamp also said she did not confront her husband on camera because she felt the need to protect him and their marriage. She clarified she did not “want to give him a good edit.”
In addition, Mellencamp said she did not want Arroyave’s comment to negatively impact RHOBH viewers.
“Yes that hurt me and I’ll remember that forever, but imagine the amount of other women that’s going to hurt when it plays out,” said Mellencamp.

She said she requested Judge, her former RHOBH co-star Kyle Richards, and two of her other friends to help Arroyave find another romantic partner if she died due to her health issues.
“I like texted Kyle and two of our other best friends and I texted [Judge] too, and I just said, ‘You guys I need you to really be on point with who Edwin marries. And who’s going to raise my kids.’ Because I don’t trust that he can make those decisions on his own. And I really wasn’t freaking kidding,” said Mellencamp on her podcast episode.
She also said she needed Arroyave’s potential future partner to love Bella, Slate, Cruz, and Dove.
“I said ‘They don’t need to be this, they don’t need to be that. But they need to love the [expletive] out of my kids. And I need you guys to make sure that that happens,’” said Mellencamp.
