Reality star Teddi Mellencamp reveals doctors removed four brain tumours—her fight is not over

Teddi Mellencamp has revealed that doctors removed four tumours from her brain in a recent surgery, but the battle is far from over. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 43, shared an emotional update on Instagram, expressing gratitude for her medical team and the unwavering support of her loved ones.

“I am so grateful for the incredible surgeons, doctors, and nurses who made my surgery a success and my recovery process comfortable,” Mellencamp wrote, posting a hospital bed photo. However, the procedure was more complex than expected, as doctors discovered and removed additional tumours.

“In full transparency, more tumours were removed than expected—four in total. This fight is not over, but that round has been won,” she continued, acknowledging the uphill battle ahead.

Mellencamp’s road to surgery began after weeks of suffering from “severe and debilitating headaches.” As the symptoms worsened, doctors conducted further tests, leading to the shocking discovery of multiple tumours. Immediate action was taken, and earlier this month, she underwent a critical procedure to remove them.

Despite the daunting circumstances, Mellencamp remains determined and optimistic. She credits her children, family, and close friends for keeping her spirits high. “The laughter, support, and patience of my kids, my family, and my closest friends is one gift with which words cannot properly express my gratitude,” she shared.

As she recovers, Mellencamp has assured fans she is staying strong, bolstered by an outpouring of love and prayers. While she has not disclosed specific details about her next course of treatment, her statement suggests ongoing medical intervention will be necessary.

“As I move on to the next steps in my treatment, I just wanted to say thank you to everybody for the outpouring of love and prayers. I see them, and they’re definitely helping me stay strong,” she concluded.

With the first stage of her battle behind her, Mellencamp’s journey continues. Fans and supporters worldwide remain hopeful as she faces the next chapter of her fight.
