Teddi Mellencamp spoke about her new romance for the first time.

The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum confirmed on Tuesday’s episode of the “Two T’s in a Pod” podcast that she is “dating somebody.”

The Bravolebrity, 43, did not identify her beau but called him a “very kind” and “nice” guy who “takes good care” of her amid her cancer battle.

She claimed her new man did not know who she was when they met.

“He’s not married, he doesn’t have any kids,” she added of the “private person,” whom she was spotted cuddling up to on a walk Tuesday.

The duo were photographed in her Los Angeles neighborhood, with Mellencamp smiling as her mystery man put his arms around her and went in for a cheek kiss.

At one point, the hunk affectionately adjusted the former reality star’s baseball cap.

Mellencamp has spoken candidly about losing her hair since starting chemotherapy in January.

“The day to day decision of wig versus no wig. Crying days I tend to pick the wig,” she told her Instagram followers last month.

While she revealed doctors had given her a 50 percent chance of beating her stage 4 cancer in April, Mellencamp shared an “exciting” update with her followers later that same month.

John Mellencamp’s daughter explained that her tumors have “significantly shrunk.”

Teddi’s health scare comes as she is still navigating her divorce from Edwin Arroyave, whom she wed in 2006.

The former couple have been co-parenting daughter Slate, 12, son Cruz, 10, and daughter Dove, 5, since splitting last year.

While Arroyave, 48, has been at Teddi’s side amid her recent struggles, he has yet to comment on her moving on.

Their marriage reportedly ended over Teddi’s alleged affair with a married horse trainer.

Teddi’s cancer journey began during their time together as she was initially diagnosed with stage 2 melanoma in 2022.

She went under the knife 16 times to combat the skin cancer.

In February, Teddi had four brain tumors removed — only for three more tumors to be discovered, as well as two in her lungs, in March.
