Teddi Mellencamp issues statement about Erika’s new book amid feud
By Mary Jane
Teddi Mellencamp may know that Erika Girardi didn’t take Teddi’s feelings seriously, as she was hurt by Erika’s attack last week. But today, as Erika’s book is released, Mellencamp reveals she can take the high road.
Teddi Mellencamp hasn’t said much about her feud with Erika Girardi over the past couple of days. Last week, Teddi broke down on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, revealing that she felt Erika was mean because of the way she reacted to Mellencamp’s comment about having “pretend amnesia.” While Teddi merely meant to point out that she thought it was convenient for Erika to forget a conversation with Dorit Kemsley as they were confronting her about it, Erika took offense, saying that she never wanted to be called a liar.
Many of Teddi’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-stars agreed that Erika had taken things out of context and was completely out of line. Lisa Vanderpump also pointed to an incident a few years ago, where Girardi had lost her cool in Hong Kong when she thought they were talking about her son. It seems like Erika gets very mad when she thinks she’s being accused of something when she simply didn’t understand the conversation or the context.
Based on her Twitter activity recently, it sounds like Erika Girardi has far from forgiven Teddi for what went down. In response to Teddi’s recent blog, she said it was hilarious to read her feelings. But today is also the day that Erika’s new book, Pretty Mess, is released. That’s when Teddi decided to take the high road, revealing that regardless of what has happened with Erika, she wishes her well with the book. However, many viewers have revealed that they are boycotting the book, simply based on what happened during last week’s episode.
