Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp has experienced “a constant ache” since her split from Edwin Arroyave.
On the Diamonds in the Rough podcast that Teddi hosts with Erika Jayne, the equestrian explained how she’s been since her separation.
Rollin’ solo:
Teddi explained, Edwin and I“went to this whole couple’s therapy thing and it announced me as an introvert. It was shocking information for everybody, even though I’ve been saying this my entire life.”
“I am naturally an introvert, so I enjoy my alone time [and] I need to recharge.”
“There’s moments that I’m feeling now, where I feel really lonely and I don’t know if those loneliness feelings mean that I’ve made a mistake or this is just something I have to get used to and this is the new change in my life.
“Oh my gosh, I’m so embarrassed I’m getting emotional, but that it is such a confusing part of all of this.”
Moving forward:
“Are you supposed to power through or are you supposed to give it [time],” asked Teddi.
Teddi described a “constant ache” that she’s “trying to fake [her] way through” each day. She told Tamra and their podcast listeners, “I have talked about this in therapy.”
“I’m attracted to another chaotic situation.”
Teddi’s childhood impact:
“I don’t want to give too much away about my parents or anything like that, but clearly my dad [John Mellencamp] was a rock star.”
“He met some girl at the Rainbow Room and it was my mom and they had babies [while] he was married already. Like, everything was a sh*t show.” (Never forget, Teddi’s affair with a twice-married father was exposed in November.)
Teddi continued, “There’s been a lot of ups and downs in my life. My only goal has ever been to give my kids stability. I don’t know if it’s loneliness or I feel scared,” but “I also don’t feel like I’m enough.”
