Amid the ongoing fallout between Kyle Richards and Kathy Hilton after a tumultuous season 12 of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, alum Teddi Mellencamp recently shared that she was put in a “tricky situation” with a long-time RHOBH friend.
That RHOBH friend is Faye Resnick, and according to Teddi, the awkwardness was due to discussing her take on Kathy’s role in the infamous Aspen drama and the epic season 12 reunion showdown that still has the cast divided.
“I have always been close with Faye, like we have done vacations together, we’ve done trips together since Kyle and I were friends, so like Thanksgiving and like Friendsgiving, like all of the group things,” Teddi explained on the Brandi Glanville Unfiltered podcast, via Heavy. “I do know that when I started discussing Kathy on my podcast, it put things in a tricky situation between me and Faye. And I have not seen her since. We had kind of a conversation about it and then we haven’t seen each other since then.”
Though she tries to respect her former co-stars’ privacy, Teddi stands by her decision to openly speak about her friends’ public lives as it’s her job and is what is required of her.
“I don’t want to have those conversations with Kyle because I don’t want to put her in the middle of it. And that’s what I think Faye was trying to say to me, ‘You don’t want to ever be in the middle of family’ and I’m like ‘The same way it is anybody else’s job to go on a show and talk about something, this is mine to recap what is in the Housewives headlines with Housewives, the good, the bad, and the ugly,’” she stated.
However, according to Teddi, Kathy has been nothing but pleasant to her. The All-In founder even claimed that she almost got Kathy to agree to be a guest on Two T’s in a Pod during BravoCon 2022.
“When I actually saw Kathy at BravoCon she came up to me and was like, ‘Listen, I know it’s your job,’ she seemed fine with it to me,” Teddi asserted in October 2022.
“She was about ready to say yes [to the podcast] and her publicist looked at me and said ‘no, she needs to eat a burger’ and then she sat right next to where my podcast table was and ate. But she was very kind to me in the moment.”
As for where she currently stands with Faye, Teddi is hopeful the two will be able to reconcile after their tiff.
“Obviously, we both love Kyle, and she also loves Kathy, so there’s that…”
