Tamra Judge, reality TV star and close friend of Teddi Mellencamp, expresses relief and hope after Teddi’s encouraging cancer update.
Tamra Judge, star of Real Housewives of Orange County and longtime friend of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp, has been a steadfast supporter throughout Teddi’s battle with metastatic melanoma. This aggressive form of skin cancer, which has spread to Teddi’s brain and other parts of her body, has been a constant challenge for the reality star. However, after Teddi’s latest announcement about her treatment’s success, Tamra is finally feeling a sense of hope.
In a recent episode of the Two Ts in a Pod podcast, Tamra shared her relief and joy after hearing the good news. “For those of you who haven’t heard, Teddi announced on her Instagram that her treatment is working,” Tamra said. “Thank you Jesus! The tumors are shrinking.”
Tamra, who is usually Teddi’s co-host on the podcast, emphasized the importance of Teddi’s health over everything else. She called the update a “win,” expressing that the positive news meant more than anything in the world. “Yes, full recovery coming up,” Tamra added. “Oh gosh, she’s just [great], her smile and her demeanor.”
This update is especially emotional for Tamra, as she has been visibly stressed by her friend’s health battle. In March, Tamra left a RHOC girls’ trip to New Orleans after an emotional confrontation with fellow Real Housewives star Gretchen Rossi. Tamra, who had already been deeply concerned about Teddi’s worsening health, posted on Instagram: “It was a long run! When life gives you real problems, this reality sh*t doesn’t make sense. Peace out [peace sign emoji] I’m out.”
Despite her challenges with the RHOC drama, Tamra’s love and care for Teddi have been unwavering. With Teddi’s tumors shrinking and her doctors optimistic about her recovery, Tamra expressed an immense sense of relief. “To finally know that it is working is like, ‘Oh God.’ It’s just such a relief,” Tamra sighed during the podcast.
Teddi’s cancer journey continues to resonate with fans, and her support system, including Tamra, remains vital in her ongoing battle. As the treatment progresses, fans continue to rally behind the star, wishing her a full recovery.
