Teddi Mellencamp, the 43-year-old 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum, was spotted getting close with a mystery man on a walk in Encino, Calif. on June 1. This comes two months after she confirmed her stage 4 brain cancer in April.
Mellencamp, who announced her divorce from husband Edwin Arroyave in November 2024, was seen wearing a taupe jacket and a Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) baseball cap, while the man wore a classic white T-shirt, black baseball cap, and sunglasses. The pair were photographed out on a stroll together, with the man wrapping his arm around Mellencamp's shoulders and waist as she placed a hand on his arm.
A representative for Mellencamp did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. However, Mellencamp previously opened up about dating amid her divorce from Arroyave on the March 21 episode of the 'Diamonds in the Rough' podcast with Erika Jayne.
Mellencamp said, "[I've] already been on more dates with new people. Well, I'm on a second date. So I went on a first date, pre-the thing, and then I went on a second date yesterday actually," she continued. "He's really cute and nice."
This outing comes two months after Mellencamp confirmed she'd been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in April after her melanoma metastasized to her brain and lungs. The reality TV star previously received treatment for melanoma in 2022 and had 17 melanomas, a cancer of the skin, removed.
Mellencamp previously issued a statement on her divorce from Arroyave, "After a great deal of care and consideration, I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce." The post continued, "My priority is my children and ensuring that every care is taken with their privacy and wellbeing throughout this new chapter."
Earlier, Mellencamp debuted another tattoo amid her ongoing cancer battle, and the ink has a sweet nod to her dad, John. She also debuted a bald red carpet look at the Unforgettable Gala amid her cancer journey.
Mellencamp's outing with the mystery man comes after she confirmed she was responding to immunotherapy but would need to have the treatment for the next two years.
