It's over between Teddi Mellencamp and Edwin Arroyave . The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum announced her split from her husband Nov. 2.
"After a great deal of care and consideration, I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce," Mellencamp wrote on Instagram . "My priority is my children and ensuring that every care is taken with their privacy and wellbeing throughout this new chapter." The 43-year-old—who shares kids Slate , 12, Cruz , 10, and Dove , 4, with Arroyave—continued, "Making a public statement is not something I wanted to do but in an effort to protect my family from undue speculation and rumors, I felt being open, honest and vulnerable was the best path forward.
" Arroyave, 47, has not commented publicly on the breakup. The news comes three months after he and Teddi marked their 13-year wedding anniversary. "13 years ago I said 'I do' to you, @tedwinator," she had written to him in an Instagram tribute in July.
"15 years together and 13 years married. I am proud of us. Who would have thought between you simulating playing the keyboard and me simulating a singer on a country music demo, we’d make a perfect duo.
" She continued, "From Paris to the Riviera Maya, it’s been years of discovery, laughter, tears, growth, and companionship. While not perfect, we’ve put in the work to make our marriage what it is today. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Love you, Papa. Excited to celebrate with you today and the beautiful family we have crea.
