Teddi Mellencamp has made plenty of followers upset proper now!
Many Bravo watchers have known as the 42-year-old former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star a “hypocrite” over the previous few days. Why is that? During her Two Ts In A Pod podcast episode on Friday, Teddi declared that she wouldn’t discuss one of many greatest tales in Housewives these days – Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky’s marriage troubles. She stated on the present:
“We have one more ‘Housewives’ headline you guys, I’m sure, are expecting me to cover. Clearly, I have a lot of anxiety, I’ve gotten a lot of messages since I’ve been gone. I’ve been on vacation.”

Teddi defined that she and her co-host Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Judge did a Q&A for the podcast, and there have been tons of questions concerning the state of affairs with Kyle and Mauricio. But as we stated, don’t count on her to reply something! Her lips are sealed out of respect for her friendship with the Halloween Kills actress! She advised listeners:
“I just wanted to say that we came up with the decision — myself, Tamra, iHeart, my producers — that everybody has their boundaries, and this is mine. Kyle and Mauricio and their kids are like my family. I love them so much. I understand exactly what my job is here on this podcast and it’s to go down all the rabbit holes. And I think 99 percent of the time, that’s quite easy for me because it’s people I don’t know.”
But this time, Teddi stated she wanted to “bow out” from the dialog surrounding the couple’s drama:
“I hope those of you as humans understand that when it comes to true friendship, this is more than just ‘Housewives’ or scandal or drama. This is one of my best friends.”
Well, this got here as a disappointment to many followers since Teddi little doubt has the tea about what’s occurring with Kyle and Mauricio proper now. But greater than that, they have been upset on the actuality star’s loyalty since she had zero points about discussing different Housewives stars divorces or household drama previously:
“I get Teddi is besties with Kyle and feels compromised but equally it’s a massive HW story that she’d have no problem discussing if it was another cast member – if you’re going to do the job you need to mention it all”
“That is hypocritical. You talk about EVERONE else on your podcast and you talk about personal knowledge as long as it gives you ratings and makes you & your friends look good. You have said some personal messes up stuff about people. But NOW you draw a line in the sand.”
“I get Teddi and Kyle are friends. I do. But Teddi makes her living off gossiping about others. Dissecting every other HW marriage. To do otherwise after proclaiming how seriously she takes her job is a bigger joke than Teddi was as a HW #RHOBH”
“Teddi not addressing the Kyle rumours…… how is this fair? Kyle should be fair game as she is a housewife IMO”
“All Teddi had to do was basically reiterate Kyle’s statement and leave it at that. The way she came out and said she’s not talking about it seems like something is actually happening and Kyle asked her not to talk about it #RHOBH”
However, others did defend Teddi towards the net hate. Many even praised her for being a “true friend” to Kyle whereas she goes by means of a troublesome time in her marriage:
“#RHOBH yall are mad at Teddi because she doesn’t want to talk about Kyle sorry but Teddi has every right to refuse and there’s nothing y’all can do about it.”
“Gotta say I have MAD respect for @TeddiMellencamp for this- she is a true friend through and through”
“Get over teddi not wanting to talk about Kyle y’all had no issues when gizzele didn’t talk about Robyn cheating on their podcast and let it slide so get over it. That’s her best friend I wouldn’t talk about that either if I was in her position.”
“This Teddi outrage is weird. She runs a podcast, not CNN. She’s not obligated to talk about anything.”
Look, we are able to commend Teddi for selecting to stay by her buddy’s aspect and making the powerful name to not discuss concerning the state of affairs. But what are your ideas on the matter, Perezcious readers? Do you assume Teddi is being a “hypocrite,” or do you’ve got respect for her loyalty to Kyle? Sound OFF within the feedback under.
