On the Saturday before Thanksgiving, Teddi took to Instagram on Sunday to share a defiant message amid the scandal surrounding her alleged affair with her horse trainer, stating that she has found peace with her past wrongdoings.
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who announced her divorce from Edwin Arroyave after 13 years of marriage earlier this month, opened up about her personal journey.
“The only person who can change your life is you,” Mellencamp, 43, wrote alongside a video of her working out.
‘We have two options: pretend to be a victim or stand up and fight for ourselves. “We all deserve peace and happiness,” he continued.
‘I have cried and lamented. I have taken responsibility and apologized for the things I have done wrong. “I have now given myself permission to grow and prosper.”
And he concluded: ‘Every story has three sides. How can I stand up and defend the people who matter? This is called being an adult. This is what it means to say it with all your chest.’
On Wednesday, Arroyave, founder and CEO of Skyline Security, 47, revealed how he avoids “ingratitude and bitterness” by valuing the blessings in his life.
‘If you have trouble finding faith, increase your gratitude. If you have trouble finding gratitude, increase your forgiveness,’ he reminded his more than 65,000 Instagram followers.

He continued: “Because they are inseparable, forgiveness and gratitude will always complement each other: forgiveness unlocks gratitude and allows gratitude to unleash love.”
Arroyave concluded his post by writing that “love always vibrates at the highest frequency.”
A day later, he returned to social media to share a Bible verse, Psalm 71:5, that talks about having unwavering faith and trusting God in difficult times.
In the same hour, Arroyave uploaded a shirtless selfie at the gym after a hot yoga class, then a sweet selfie dropping off his daughter, Dove, four, at school.
Last week, her ex publicly addressed headlines about her alleged infidelity with her married horse trainer, Simon Schroeder.
“What I can say, I’m trying really hard… there are multiple sides to every story,” the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum said on her podcast Two Ts in a Pod with Tamra Judge.
‘I have cried and lamented. I have taken responsibility and apologized for the things I have done wrong. “I have now given myself permission to grow and prosper,” he wrote.
And he concluded: ‘Every story has three sides. How can I stand up and defend the people who matter? This is called being an adult. This is what it means to say it with a full chest’
“I’m sure everyone has seen everything on the World Wide Web,” she added.
Mellencamp was measured in her words when speaking about the sensitive topic, which comes two weeks after she filed for divorce from Arroyave, 47.
“I’m not going to confirm or deny anything,” the accountability coach said, cryptically adding that “there are a lot of people involved” in her current situation.
Mellencamp and Arroyave are parents to three children: daughter Slate, 12, son Cruz, 10, and daughter Dove, and she is stepmother to his daughter from a previous relationship, Isabella, 15.
‘Once again, I say the same statement I said before: the children, they are the priority; At the moment, that’s all I’m going to discuss about this,” Teddi said. ‘There are young children involved, family members, you don’t want to throw other people under the bus.
“When it comes to kids and the lives of other people who didn’t sign up for this or signed up for this, I have to take a moment.”
Mellencamp, whose father is singer-songwriter John Cougar Mellencamp, 73, said he felt like he needed to say something about the affair theme to keep things “moving forward” on the podcast.
The blonde beauty said that while she’s not “ready to process, talk about, or engage the kids in” certain issues centered around the separation, she’s “still here,” “showing up for work” and “doing the best she can.” . (she) can.’
Mellencamp and Schröeder allegedly cheated on him for months in the middle of their respective marriages, and for a period of time his wife Karli Postel had been expecting – and gave birth to – their second child, a source told Dailymail.com on Wednesday.
“Karli thought it was suspicious that her husband was in Florida when she was giving birth” in California, the source said.
Postel eventually “found text messages on Simon’s phone exposing the affair,” the source said, and “confronted Simon and Teddi about it and they confessed,” and Teddi promised him it “wouldn’t happen again.”
Postel initially “didn’t tell” Arroyave about his wife’s extramarital affair and “was willing to give Simon another chance and stayed with him,” the source said.
Things reached a boiling point in October when Postel “found evidence” that the affair was ongoing and had become “emotional.”
‘Simon had a history of cheating and Karli was tired of being connected to him. Edwin didn’t find out about the affair until the end of last month, when Karli told him.
On November 2, she posted a statement on Instagram revealing that she and Arroyave had separated after 13 years of marriage.

The timing of Mellencamp’s filing for divorce earlier this month was a tactical move to preempt the split and control the narrative, according to the source.
“She filed for divorce from Edwin so he wouldn’t have the opportunity to sue for adultery,” the source said. “It has been said that the marriage ended because Edwin cheated on Teddi, but in reality it was the other way around.”
Mellencamp said she and Arroyave had separated after a 13-year marriage a day after she filed divorce papers, listing Oct. 20 as the date of separation and irreconcilable differences as the cause.
She said via a Nov. 2 Instagram statement: “After much care and consideration, I made the difficult decision to file for divorce. “My priority is my children and ensuring that every possible care is taken with their privacy and well-being throughout this new chapter.”
The star added that she did not want to make “a public statement” on the issue, but “felt that being open, honest and vulnerable is the best path forward” to “protect (her) family from undue speculation and rumors.”
