Teddi Mellencamp Says She’s Sharing Fun as Coping Mechanism Amid Health Issue​on March 16, 2025 at 8:42 pm

Teddi Mellencamp‘s sending out a gentle reminder to her myriad of fans … telling them she’s going out and having fun as a coping mechanism — but, everyone deals with difficulties in their own way.

The reality television star shared several clips to her Instagram story late Saturday night and early Sunday morning … and, she kicks off the vids by saying she’s going out and having fun as a coping mechanism.

Teddi says it helps keep her mind off her recent health struggles … but, she adds that not everyone needs to do the same as her in order to come to terms with the difficult parts of their lives.

Take a listen for yourself … but, basically, Teddi says everyone has to find their own “new normal” — and do whatever makes them happy. She gets really emotional while speaking to the camera too, sniffling back tears in the clip.

As you know … Teddi went to the hospital last month after weeks of debilitating headaches — and, a doctor informed her that she had multiple tumors on her brain.

Teddi revealed she had four tumors removed via surgery … and, she’s now going through a series of therapies — including radiation — to manage the rest.

She talked all about the wild lead-up to the diagnosis on “Two Ts in a Pod” … the podcast she hosts with Tamra Judge.

BTW … in another video just posted by Teddi, she discusses her insecurities about going with her natural hair now that her head is shaved versus wearing a wig in public.
