E! News Exclusive: Meet the New Lady Joining The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for Season 8
There's a new face in the 90210!
With filming underway on season eight of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,
E! News has exclusively learned that Teddi Jo Mellencamp, daughter of
music legend John Cougar Mellencamp, is officially in the mix. While
it's still too early to tell whether she'll be a full-time Housewife
with a diamond of her very own to hold in the opening credits or simply
appear as a Friend of the Housewives (a la season seven's Eden Sassoon),
sources tell us that she is currently filming with the rest of the
cast.
While not much is known about Teddi beyond her famous lineage, she describes herself in her Instagram bio as
an "accountability coach and fitmom addicted to sweat and laughter" and
"writer of honest sarcastic reviews for anything health/fitness." She
blogs about fitness as LAWorkoutJunkie.com Married to husband Edwin Arroyave, she has two children and one step-child.
Former Housewife Camille Grammer shared
a photo of herself alongside current cast members Lisa Vanderpump, Lisa
Rinna, Kyle Richards, Erika Girardi and Dorit Kemsley, along with
fellow former HW Adrienne Maloof and an unidentified blonde on Thursday,
July 6, posing with the Las Vegas skyline behind them. That
unidentified blonde? None other than Teddi herself. "Hot night in
Vegas," Camille captioned the photo.
Bravo had no comment on Teddi's involvement.
Teddi's addition to the series comes after Eileen Davidson confirmed she was walking away from the series after three seasons.
"After a lot of careful thought, I've decided because of my crazy schedules at The Young and The Restless, as well as Days of Our Lives,
it's best for me and my family if I step away from being a Housewife
for now," she said in a statement obtained by E! News. "But you never
know, I might be popping in from time to time just to see what the
ladies are up to! Thanks for your love and support guys!!!"
Are you looking forward to getting to know Teddi? Sound off in the comments below.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills returns to Bravo later this year.
(E! and Bravo are both part of the NBCUniversal family.)
