Teddi Mellencamp recently criticized former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-star Dorit Kemsley for her behavior at Kyle Richards’ daughter, Alexia Umansky’s, wedding last year.
Despite ongoing tensions with Kyle, Dorit managed to receive an invitation to the celebration. Teddi, speaking on her Two T’s in a Pod podcast, elaborated on the event’s setup.
“The venue was breathtaking,” Teddi described. “You entered by ascending a grand staircase, giving the impression of being in a forest rather than Los Angeles.”
She added, “After a pre-cocktail gathering, guests descended the stairs to find their seats. I was seated with Alex Baskin, Erika, and Rinna, though not in a straight line, which made conversation easier.”
She continued, “So you walk up, you’re in the forest. Then you have your pre-cocktail or whatever, and then you walk back down these stairs, and you sit down. So I sit down. I’m next to Alex Baskin, Erika, Rinna — like, a group of people. But we’re like this. There’s four of us – we’re not all four in a row. It’s me and Alex, and then Erika – however, it’s labeled out so… it’s kind of easy to talk.”
Teddi noted the wedding guests were specifically asked not to take photos or videos.
“Right around the time Dorit comes bambi-ing down the stairs late,” Teddi continued. “She doesn’t end up being late because the wedding’s late. So that’s neither here nor there. But she comes there and she speaks so loudly the entire time we’re waiting. I was so embarrassed.”
Teddi made sure to explain that her commentary had nothing to do with her feelings on Dorit.
“There are points where I’ve really loved Dorit and there are times where I’ve really gotten along with Dorit and my heart has really gone out to Dorit like during her robbery or when we’ve had our kids birthday parties together… There have been those times,” she noted. “And I have laughed hard with Dorit after fighting hard with Dorit. So it’s not about that. But.. she had just sat down.”
As for Dorit’s behavior once she took her seat next to Alex, Teddi said she was “so loud.”
“Everyone else is silent,” Teddi shared. “We’re waiting for the wedding to start. Then, when they start walking down the aisles, Dorit pulls out her phone and starts videoing. They just gave us instructions – no pictures, no videos…. There’s no excuse.”
Aside from talking about Dorit, Teddi also recently spoke out on her podcast to address Kyle suing her sister Kim, insisting she knew “the acutal truth.”
“The actual truth is, yes, they did say, ‘You need to get help if you want us to keep paying for you,” Teddi said on the April 15 episode of the show.
“It’s a house that she bought for Kim,” she added. “I think Kyle supports Kim financially.”
While Teddi claimed Kyle “has a good heart” and always ends up “saying yes” in an attempt to help Kim, she insisted this was “from a really long time ago.”
“It’s not even where she lives now. It’s not even the same location. … Kim is no longer in that house,” she elaborated.
