Former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Teddi Mellencamp, 43, has revealed she is battling multiple brain tumors after being hospitalized for “excruciating pain.” She shared on Instagram, “The scans showed my brain has several tumors.”
Doctors believe the tumors had been developing for at least six months. On February 12, Mellencamp explained that two tumors will be surgically removed, while the smaller ones will later be treated with radiation therapy.
Her openness has been met with strong support from fans and fellow reality stars. Many praised her for encouraging others to take persistent symptoms seriously and seek medical help when needed.
Mellencamp has previously spoken about health struggles, including stage II melanoma that required several skin cancer surgeries. Her candor has helped raise awareness about the importance of early detection and regular check-ups.
As she prepares for brain surgery and ongoing treatment, Mellencamp expressed gratitude for her doctors and supporters, saying her focus remains on staying strong for her family and maintaining hope during recovery.
