After undergoing brain surgery, #RHOBH alum Teddi Mellencamp revealed Dorit Kemsley hadn’t immediately reached out.
Teddi Mellencamp says she and Dorit Kemsley are in a much better place as Teddi battles cancer.
Weeks after announcing her brain tumor diagnosis, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum expressed gratitude for all the love and support she received from her fellow Bravolebrities, including her longtime foe Vicki Gunvalson. Teddi admitted Vicki’s sweet gift and encouraging message left her “shocked,” but perhaps more shocking was that The Real Housewives of Orange County alum had “reached out” before her good friend Dorit.
“I was like, ‘I haven’t heard from Dorit, but I’ve heard from Vicki Gunvalson,’” Teddi claimed in the March 20 episode of Two Ts in a Pod. “Dorit was one of my best friends, and Vicki hates me with a burning passion.”
Teddi says she and Dorit connected through Erika Jayne
Dorit did not publicly respond to the comments but has since connected with Teddi through Erika Jayne.
“Dorit — since the pod — has reached out,” Teddi recently said to Us Weekly. “Erika kind of told me. She’s like, ‘Dorit does want to reach out to you now. Can she?’ And I’m like, ‘I don’t know how quick I’ll be to forgive, but sure.’”
Teddi didn’t provide details on her exchange with Dorit but expressed optimism for their friendship.
“I definitely told her I was disappointed, and I told her I filmed a pod this morning where I talked sh-t about you,” Teddi recalled with a laugh. “But then her message was so nice that I have to say we’ll probably be fine.”
