Teddi Mellencamp of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fame was portrayed as the villain during season ten, but some fans actually turned on her earlier than that. Before she went down the villain path, there were viewers who thought Teddi was a sweet cast member. They felt that she was trying to stay out of the drama as much as she possibly could. However, there are people who have looked back at old moments from earlier seasons and drawn the conclusion that she has always had a dark side. That side of her didn't really stand out until this past season.
The daughter of John Cougar Mellencamp joined the Bravo franchise in 2017 for season eight. Teddi was introduced to the group through Dorit Kemsley, who met Teddi at her home during a children's music class. The two hit it off right away, and Dorit invited the newbie to lunch with Lisa Vanderpump. After meeting all the other women from the cast at a later date, Teddi quickly became friends with Lisa Rinna and Kyle Richards. She may have been close to many of her castmates, but it wasn't enough for Bravo to bring Teddi back for season 11.
For over a year now, fans on Reddit have pointed out that the 39-year-old had villainous tendencies during her first season. Viewers found it was challenging to watch Teddi due to her lack of authenticity and her arrogance. At first, the mother of three was kind of bland and boring, but eventually, she started to open up in front of the camera. At that point, viewers did not find her very authentic. Fans began to turn on Teddi after she was involved in "puppygate" in season nine, with LVP and Dorit. The former actress Teddi tried to play the victim, but in reality, she was doing what all Real Housewives do i.e. creating drama. In fact, Teddi only took accountability for her actions once she was caught by Dorit. Teddi got fed up with Dorit's constant insults.
Viewers started to turn on Teddi during season ten. That was when she confronted Denise Richards. That confrontation led to death threats against Teddi. She called Denise out about former housewife Brandi Glanville, who alleged that the two had an affair the year before. While viewers love pot-stirrers like Rinna and Vanderpump, they did believe Teddi was the one trying to stir the pot. Many viewers thought Teddi was shaming Denise for her sexual experience. The audience also found it odd that she was the one to bring up the alleged affair. Kyle Richards was there when Brandi spilled the beans about her night with Denise. This led viewers to believe that Teddi was trying to get in on the drama. The situation made Teddi look like a villain.
Fans were excited for Teddi during her first The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season, but they slowly started to turn against her. She tried to become the moral authority on the show, and audiences weren't into it. Viewers hoped she would turn it around for season ten, but it ended up being her worst season. Teddi, who welcomed baby number three in early 2020, may be better off not being on reality TV.
