Teddi Mellencamp Shows Progress After Brain Surgery for Stage IV Cancer

Former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Teddi Mellencamp made a notable red carpet appearance at the "An Unforgettable Evening" event in Beverly Hills on April 28, 2025, benefiting the Women's Cancer Research Fund. This marked her first major public appearance since undergoing brain surgery to treat stage IV melanoma.

During the gala, Mellencamp confidently displayed her surgery scars while sharing positive news about her health journey. She revealed that following immunotherapy treatment, her stage-four tumors have either shrunk or disappeared completely.

Mellencamp has been open about her emotional journey with cancer. She previously shared photos of her scars 76 days after her operation, admitting that she initially cried upon seeing them, but has since found "so much peace" with her changed appearance.

The daughter of rock legend John Mellencamp was joined at the event by her former "Real Housewives" co-star Kyle Richards. Throughout her health battle, Teddi has used her platform to encourage others to prioritize regular skin checks and to advocate for their health.
