Teddi Mellencamp EXPOSED as a Homewrecker Who Ruined TWO Marriages — Details of Affair with Married Horse Trainer Simon Schröder!

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp’s 13-year marriage to Edwin Arroyave has come to a dramatic end, and the catalyst for their split appears to be an affair between Mellencamp and her married horse trainer, Simon Schröder. The months-long secret relationship with the German-born trainer has reportedly caused a major rift, leading to a contentious divorce and a public battle over spousal support and custody of their three children.

Affair Exposed During Wife’s Pregnancy

According to an exclusive report from DailyMail.com, the affair between Mellencamp, 43, and Schröder took place while his pregnant wife, Karli Postel, was giving birth to their second child in California. A source close to the situation revealed the details, stating that Postel grew suspicious when Schröder was in Florida with Mellencamp while she was in labor.

“Karli thought it was suspicious that her husband was in Florida when she was giving birth,” the insider shared. Upon Schröder’s return to California, Postel allegedly found text messages on his phone revealing the affair. She confronted both Schröder and Mellencamp, who reportedly admitted to the infidelity.

“Teddi promised it would not happen again,” the source continued. Despite the confession, Postel initially chose to forgive her husband and stay in the marriage. However, last month, she discovered further proof that the affair had continued and become “emotional.”

“Simon had a history of cheating and Karli was tired of being connected to him,” the insider said. “Edwin only learned of the affair late last month when Karli told him.”

Teddi Mellencamp Files for Divorce

Once Mellencamp’s affair was exposed, she reportedly decided to file for divorce from her husband, Edwin Arroyave, to avoid facing accusations of adultery herself. “She filed for divorce from Edwin so that he did not have the chance to file and get her for adultery,” the source revealed. “It has been alleged that the marriage ended because Edwin cheated on Teddi, but it is actually the other way around.”

Mellencamp, who is best known for her role on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, had been married to Arroyave, 47, since 2011. The couple shares three children: Slate, 12, Cruz, 10, and Dove, 4. Despite the ongoing divorce, the couple’s legal battles are just beginning, as they now fight over custody and finances.

Professional Ties Between Teddi Mellencamp and Simon Schröder

The affair between Mellencamp and Schröder is particularly complicated due to their professional relationship. Schröder, a skilled horse trainer specializing in show jumping, had been working with Mellencamp’s horse, Totally, also known as “Toad.” Mellencamp publicly praised Schröder for his work with Toad on multiple occasions, including posts on Instagram celebrating his success at horse shows.

On May 29, Postel congratulated her husband and Mellencamp on Toad’s performance at the Devon Horse Show, writing on Instagram, “So beyond proud of Simon’s hard work with Teddi Mellencamp’s Totally!” Despite the praise, Mellencamp had already begun her relationship with Schröder, and it was around this time that his wife, Karli, was giving birth to their child.

Teddi also shared glowing praise for Schröder in a May 31 post, writing, “I am Totally obsessed with you Toady baby boy” and thanking him for his work with her horse at the Devon Horse Show.

Despite this apparent admiration, Schröder’s wife Postel was reportedly unaware of the affair until she uncovered the text messages, leading to a public confrontation and eventually the end of her marriage.

Legal Battle: Custody and Spousal Support

As the divorce between Mellencamp and Arroyave proceeds, the couple is now engaged in a legal battle over custody of their three children. In her divorce filing, Mellencamp requested primary custody with “reasonable and frequent visitation” for Arroyave. However, Arroyave is pushing back, seeking joint physical and legal custody instead.

The legal wrangling is further complicated by the couple’s prenuptial agreement. Arroyave has requested that the court enforce the terms of the prenup, which he claims outline the amount and duration of spousal support. In his response to Mellencamp’s petition, Arroyave is also seeking spousal support from Mellencamp, contrary to her request for him to pay her legal fees.

“The parties’ Premarital Agreement sets forth the terms regarding the amount and duration of spousal support to be paid,” Arroyave stated in the legal documents. “All assets, income from all sources, and obligations of each party are his/her separate property, except as specifically set forth there.”

Arroyave has also contested the official date of separation, which Mellencamp claims was October 20, while Arroyave lists November 1 as the date their marriage ended.

Teddi’s Career and Public Persona

Teddi Mellencamp, the daughter of famous singer-songwriter John Mellencamp, gained national fame as a cast member on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in 2017. She was part of the show for three seasons before being let go by producers. Since leaving the show, Mellencamp has maintained a strong public presence, starring in Celebrity Big Brother and Name That Tune, and co-hosting the popular Real Housewives podcast, Two Ts in a Pod, alongside Tamra Judge.

As the divorce continues to unfold, both Mellencamp and Arroyave are likely to face more public scrutiny, particularly regarding the affair that led to their split. The legal battles over custody, spousal support, and the couple’s prenuptial agreement will no doubt play out in the courts in the coming months.
