Teddi Mellencamp says she's 'free' for Kevin Costner amid Edwin Arroyave divorce and horse trainer affair
BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Teddi Mellencamp is making waves both on and off her podcast, and this time, it’s for setting her sights on Hollywood legend Kevin Costner.
On the latest episode of 'Two T’s in a Pod' podcast, the 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum didn’t hold back as she flirtatiously called on the 69-year-old 'Yellowstone' star.
Teddi Mellencamp shoots her shot at Kevin Costner
Teddi Mellencamp's co-host Tamra Judge kicked off the playful moment, teasing, “Teddi’s free,” referencing Mellencamp’s recent divorce.
Wasting no time, the 43-year-old accountability coach chimed in, “Kevin, if you’re listening, my Instagram name is @teddimellencamp.”
Mellencamp’s bold move comes just weeks after she filed for divorce from Edwin Arroyave, her husband of 13 years, and the father of her children.
She reportedly sought primary legal and physical custody of their three children — daughter Slate, 12, son Cruz, 10, and daughter Dove, 4
While the split has been making headlines, it’s the whispers of an alleged affair with married horse trainer Simon Schroeder that have fueled speculation.
Though Mellencamp hasn’t confirmed or denied the rumors, she gave a cryptic response on a previous podcast episode, saying, “There are multiple sides to every story.”
Meanwhile, Costner finds himself back in the dating pool as well.
The Academy Award winner finalized his divorce from Christine Baumgartner earlier this year, ending a 19-year marriage.
The former couple have three teenage children -- Cayden, 17, Hayes, 15, and Grace, 14.
Despite being linked to singer Jewel earlier this year, Costner dismissed the romance rumors during an appearance on the 'Howard Stern Show', insisting the two are “just friends.”
Kevin Costner caught in 'RHOBH' star Kyle Richards drama
Kevin Costner’s name has been circulating in Bravoland for another reason, thanks to Sutton Stracke’s recent claim that her fellow 'RHOBH' star Kyle Richards had once tried to “hook up” with the actor in Aspen.
Richards, who is navigating her own split from estranged husband Mauricio Umansky, swiftly shut down the allegation, telling TMZ, “That is definitely not true,” though she did admit, “He’s a good-looking man.”
“Kyle and I have this conversation, she was in Aspen and Kevin Costner was there. And she was, like, trying to hook up with Kevin Costner,” Stracke told Gercelle Beauvais and Jennifer Tilly during an episode of the 'RHOBH After Show'.
Stracke later clarified that her comment was all in jest, and Mellencamp and Judge backed her up on their podcast.
“I think they both have homes in Aspen,” Mellencamp speculated.
“She said maybe they met for, like, a second. Maybe one minute total. It would be like if I were to accidentally bump into Colin Farrell.”
Judge interjected with the final word, “Sorry, people, just another rumor.”
