Teddi Mellencamp is living with someone close amid divorce.
The reality star has found solace in a familiar place during a challenging time. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star revealed that she has been staying at Kyle Richards’ home following her recent split from husband Edwin Arroyave.
“So I live at Kyle’s,” Mellencamp, 43, shared on the debut episode of her podcast, Diamonds in the Rough, co-hosted by Erika Jayne.
The episode, which premiered Thursday, sparked a lively exchange between the two.
“Do you really? Holy s—t!” exclaimed Jayne, 53, a current RHOBH cast member alongside Richards, 55.
Mellencamp humorously pointed out that she now occupies Richards’ glam room. When Jayne joked, “Is that where you’re sleeping?” Mellencamp quipped, “That’s my bedroom now, b***h!”
The playful banter continued as Mellencamp praised the space, calling it “cozy” and a “dream.” She even suggested to Jayne, who is also estranged from her husband, that they “start podding from there.”
Richards’ estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky, moved out of their family home earlier this year, leaving the space available. Mellencamp expressed gratitude for Richards’ support, saying, “So thankfully, Kyle has let me do that.”
The reality star explained that she and Arroyave, 47, are practicing a co-parenting method known as “nesting,” which allows their three children — Slate, 12, Cruz, 10, and Dove, 4 — to remain in the family home while the parents rotate staying there.
“So I just zip on over. It’s close. It’s easy,” Mellencamp said of her temporary living arrangement with Richards. “She cooks — sometimes.”
Mellencamp filed for divorce from Arroyave last month after over 13 years of marriage, but her new setup seems to be easing the transition for her family.
“It does work out really well for the kids,” she shared.
