Teddi Mellencamp Shares Positive Health Update Amid Cancer Battle

Teddi Mellencamp has shared a positive update amid her intense battle with stage 4 cancer.

The TV personality revealed that she is “actually doing well” and “things are moving along nicely,” as she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2025. She told People at the red carpet of the iHeartRadio Music Awards about how she is taking care of her mental health during this stressful health scare.

“You know, I kind of ride the wave,” Teddi said, “I’m actually doing well. I had immunotherapy two weeks ago, and then I have my next one in two weeks, so things are moving along nicely.”

This update came after Teddi faced a medical emergency earlier in the month after a medicine triggered Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, which is a painful and life-threatening skin disorder that causes blisters on the skin. “I thought I had the flu. And then I woke up one day and my whole body was just covered in, like, this terrible rash — like, you can’t even say it’s a rash because it’s almost sores all over my entire body,” Teddi revealed on her podcast, Two T’s in a Pod.

Teddi Mellencamp was first diagnosed with skin cancer, stage 2 melanoma, in 2022 and underwent 17 surgeries. Her cancer metastasized to the lungs and brain later that year.
