Denise Richards must be exhausted after carrying RHOBH the entire season and she’s still defending herself, this time from John Mellencamp.

Shots fired!  Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave (remember her?) posted a screenshot on her Twitter after this week’s episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills that really ruffled some feathers…mostly Denise Richards feathers.  The screenshot between her and her father, John Mellencamp, showed a text from her dad that said, “I know you are busy living in my shadow,” and included a screenshot of Teddi and her dad with the caption, “Dennis Richards…never heard of him.”

Teddi responded and said that her dad knew who Denise was, she was the one who mentioned Charlie Sheen on every episode.  This week, Brandi Glanville said that Denise told her Teddi was irrelevant and spent her life in her father’s shadow.  Did anyone know who Teddi was before she joined RHOBH?  No?  Didn’t think so.

Denise took to her on Instagram to respond to Teddi’s tweet and Brandi’s accusation.  She said she didn’t care what Brandi told her, she never said that.

Denise also stood by her sentiments about the entire debacle, that she simply was hurt that Teddi participated in the drama.  Then she signed it Dennis.

Teddi responded in the comments that Denise can’t take a joke and placed the blame of the whole situation squarely on Denise.  Teddi claims that Denise brought Brandi back into the group and shared personal information with her.  She then called Denise a victim.  I wonder how long it took her and Kyle to write that out?

It is nice to know that things have not improved between Denise and Teddi during their downtime, that gives us hope the reunion will be as messy as we presume it will be.  “Oh yeah, life goes on…”  Do you know that one, Teddi?

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is on Bravo on Wednesdays at 9 PM ET.
