'RHOBH' Teddi Mellencamp's Estranged Husband Reportedly Made The Adultery Detour First

The divorce drama between Teddi Mellencamp and Edwin Arroyave continues with new infidelity claims.

The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" alum recently made waves for allegedly cheating on her husband with her horse trainer. However, sources claim Arroyave took the adultery route years ago.

Teddi Mellencamp filed to end her marriage to Edwin Arroyave earlier this month and announced her decision on Instagram. At the time, she claimed she was protecting her family from "undue speculation and rumors."

Insiders claiming to know the Bravolebrity's situation seemingly defended her in new statements. They implied Mellencamp should not be blamed for having an affair because her estranged husband was far from faithful during their marriage.

Both sources claimed Arroyave had cheated on Mellencamp with a woman named "Missy." While one informant described the lady as the entertainer's "best friend," the other noted the pair "maybe interacted four times at most."

The insiders alleged that Arroyave and Missy's extramarital affair occurred between 2015 and 2016, but they differed in its duration. One claimed the relationship lasted "at least a year," while the other noted it was closer to "six months," per Page Six.

According to the sources, Mellencamp found out about the affair in March 2016 during the audition process for "RHOBH." She once claimed her marriage to Arroyave nearly ended that year, a sentiment an insider echoed.

The informant claimed Arroyave was ready to leave Mellencamp when she found out about his affair. However, the TV personality allegedly refused to break up and implored him to work things out.

The second source shared a similar narrative, noting that Arroyave vowed to change and commit to Mellencamp. Despite his infidelity, they claimed the affair "led to a period of self-reflection and a renewed focus on family and faith."

The first source painted a severe picture of Arroyave's infidelities, claiming Mellencamp was unsure of how many times he had cheated. They implied her estranged husband might be a repeat offender, alleging he once told her that he doesn't "remember" the number of his affairs.

However, the second source begged to differ, claiming Arroyave had changed and "has not repeated the behavior since." These claims come weeks after Mellencamp hinted at the drama to come in her divorce announcement.

She shared a lengthy message on Instagram, claiming she had publicized the end of her marriage to "protect [her] family from undue speculation and rumors." Contrary to her words, sources claimed she filed for divorce because of her affair.

Mellencamp's affair broke via claims from insiders who alleged she had an affair with her married horse trainer, Simon Schroeder. The Blast reported the pair had enjoyed a liaison in Florida while Schroeder's wife, Karli Postel, was delivering his child in California.

His absence made Postel suspicious, and she eventually discovered the pair's infidelity after going through Schroeder's phone. Insiders claimed she confronted Mellencamp about the situation, sparking a wave of remorse.

Mellencamp allegedly promised to end the affair if Postel kept quiet, and she agreed because she did not want to divorce her husband. However, this decision was a mistake as the TV personality rewarded her trust with betrayal.

"Karli didn't tell Edwin when she found out. She was willing to give Simon another chance and stayed with him. But last month, Karli found proof that the affair was ongoing and that it had become emotional," the source claimed.

Arroyave reportedly learned about Mellencamp's affair late last month after Postel told him about it. This incident, per insiders, sparked the Bravolebrity's hasty divorce filing.

They claimed Mellencamp pulled the plug on her marriage to ensure Arroyave did not have the opportunity to file and get her for adultery. On the other hand, the grapevine was heavy with rumors of the pair's union ending by Arroyave's will.

Some speculated Mellencamp filed for divorce because Arroyave had walked out on their marriage. Following the infidelity rumors, the entertainer dropped two cryptic posts, with the first featuring a compilation of unfortunate events.

She captioned the video "Random: how's life going? My life:" implying she was having a bad day as depicted in the clip. The second post was a quote from Bruce Lee, reading: "DO NOT PRAY FOR AN EASY LIFE, PRAY FOR THE STRENGTH TO ENDURE A DIFFICULT ONE."
