Getty Images A RHOBH star has shared the results of her latest tests.
Former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Teddi Mellencamp jetted off to Mexico with some of her gal pals, including her BFF Kyle Richards. She shared several photos and videos from the trip, including many of the women soaking up some rays on the beach.
Mellencamp received messages from people who were “concerned” about her being out in the sun after she was diagnosed with melanoma. She decided to respond to those concerns on her Instagram Stories on January 23, 2023.
“For those of y’all lovingly concerned about [sun],” Mellencamp began. “I am always under an imprella [sic]. Coat sunscreen. Wear a hat, shades, and a coverup,” she added. The comments and Mellencamp’s response comes just days after Mellencamp’s doctor found more concerning areas on her back that needed to be biopsied.

Fans Commented on Teddi Mellencamp’s Instagram Pics From the Trip
While Mellencamp was enjoying her time away with her friends, comments on one of her posts started stacking up. In the picture, Mellencamp was wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a cover-up as she stood in a pool with the ocean in clear view.
“Preach girl!!!!! You’re beautiful !!!! But from one melanoma girl to another please keep out of that sun or stay covered up… sadly sunscreen isn’t enough just helps,” one person commented on the snap.
“No one is hating her. They are concerned for her. Melanoma is not a joke. She needs to be covered in the sun. That coverup is too sheer. She needs the kind that really protect you. Not as attractive but her health is priority,” someone else added.
“I would be staying out of that sun or carrying a very large umbrella over me. Stay safe, stay healthy,” a third person said.

“Yes yes yea!!! When do I go back again for check ups?!” Mellencamp asked.
“Come back in 3 months, or sooner if you have any concerns,” the next message read.
