 The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, Teddi Mellencamp, hasn’t been staying on her side lately. She was discovered with stage 4 melanoma and has been openly sharing her journey details with fans. Recently, in her podcast Diamonds in the Rough, she talked about her brutal COVID case to co-star Erika Jayne. 

Teddi shared with her listeners the story of her COVID-19 experience.  “I got COVID, which I’m good now, but then I started feeling extreme, extreme depression,” she said. She wasn’t really feeling well and cried every single day. She felt a sense of isolation, and therefore, she had to reach out to her psychiatrist. Her dad also flew in with his assistant to be with her. She continued to describe it, “I haven’t ever felt like that.” 

Teddi’s psychiatrist eventually adjusted her medication and reminded her that “nobody really knows” the extent of what she is going through. The mother of three also admitted that she has always avoided asking for help. This has led to a sense of helplessness and homelessness for her. Teddi explained that her doctors assured her it’s “normal to feel this way,” but that doesn’t make the feelings any less “scary” for her.

Erika Jayne, her co-host and longtime friend, acknowledged Teddi’s struggles. She said the “seriousness and the gravity” of her situation is only now catching up with her. She tried to reassure Mellencamp that she is not alone in her struggles. Teddi also talked about her 50-50 prognosis and that her cancer has spread to her brain and lungs. The journey is still frightening for Teddi, but she is keeping her spirits strong as the battle continues. Keep coming back to TV Season & Spoilers for all the latest reality TV updates.
