Teddi Mellencamp has confirmed that she and Vicki Gunvalson have officially put their differences behind them.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum shared the news during the BravoCon 2025 “Yep, We’re Besties!” panel, where she was asked about the members of her Las Vegas weekend “squad.”
Teddi mentioned she had been spending time with The Real Housewives of Orange County’s Tamra Judge and her longtime friend and former castmate Kyle Richards. But it was her third name that truly surprised the audience.
“I reconciled with Vicki,” she announced, prompting cheers from the crowd.
When host KiKi Monique asked for more details, Teddi explained that the reconciliation took place during a recent episode of her podcast, Two Ts in a Pod, which she co-hosts with Tamra Judge.
“Well, when [Vicki] was on the pod, I said, ‘Is it time to unblock me yet?’” Teddi recalled. “And she said, ‘Yeah, let’s do it!’”
Teddi and Vicki’s feud had been ongoing since 2023, with tensions spilling into interviews, podcast episodes, and even BravoCon 2023. Fans also saw their conflict play out on-screen in RHOC Season 18, Episode 8, during Tamra’s The Traitors-themed game night. Teddi greeted the cast — and Vicki — in a pointed manner:
“Welcome Housewives … and Vicki,” she said, clearly shading the RHOC alum.
Tamra later weighed in on the moment during a 2024 interview at Bravo HQ, insisting she was not responsible for Teddi’s remark.
“That just kind of slipped out of [Teddi’s] mouth,” Tamra said. “She tries to blame me for it, but I’m not the one who told her to say it. Her and Vicki have had this long feud going on. I don’t think there’s [a relationship right now]. I think Vicki continues to just trash her. She’s just thirsty, as far as I’m concerned. Vicki’s been nothing but horrible to her for no reason. She doesn’t even know her. So [Teddi] thought it was a good idea to just stick it to her.”
The two women’s dynamic began to shift in March 2025, shortly after Teddi revealed she had been diagnosed with brain and lung tumors. During an episode of Two T’s in a Pod, she shared that Vicki had sent her a thoughtful letter and a care package, which included a Housewives-themed coloring book.
“These are all very nice things to send, and I’m very grateful for the gift,” Teddi said. “However, I was a little bit shocked when I opened the letter. [It read], ‘Teddi, we hope you know just how protected you are in prayers and positive energy, too. Without tests, we have no testimonials, and your testimony will touch the lives of millions. We hope these things come in handy as you absolutely crush this, sending every ounce of our love.’”
Teddi even joked about needing to “grab [her] glasses” to confirm that Vicki had indeed sent the letter.
After years of public feuding, it seems these former Housewives have finally found a way to move forward.
