Teddi Mellencamp and Simon Schroeder Were There To Support Her Daughter
Teddi Mellencamp and Simon Schroeder may still be embroiled in cheating scandals, but that did not stop them from attending the equestrian event to support her 12-year-old who was competing in Thermal, California.
At the event, the proud mom was seen taking pictures of her daughter as she rode while Schroeder was perched on a fence nearby, focused on the action. Mellencamp also posted clips documenting parts of the event on her Instagram Story on Sunday.

Why Is Teddi Divorcing Her Husband?
Teddi Mellencamp and Simon Schroeder’s outing comes barely over a month after the proud mom revealed her decision to divorce her husband. “After a great deal of care and consideration, I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce,” Mellencamp’s November 2 statement read.
“My priority is my children and ensuring that every care is taken with their privacy and wellbeing throughout this new chapter.” Mellencamp also stated that she would not have made a public statement, but she did to protect her family from “undue speculation and rumors.”
“I felt being open, honest, and vulnerable was the best path forward,” she said. Almost two weeks later, a source revealed the allegedly real reason behind the divorce — infidelity. According to the source, Mellencamp stepped out on Arroyave several times with Schroeder. One insider also believes that she filed for divorce so he could not do so himself and “get her for adultery.”
“It has been alleged that the marriage ended because Edwin cheated on Teddi, but it is actually the other way around,” the insider told Daily Mail.
Was Teddi Mellencamp Involved in a Cheating Scandal?
Yes, Teddi Mellencamp and Simon Schroeder were involved in a cheating scandal that rocked her marriage and ultimately ended it. The reality TV alum reportedly cheated on her husband with Schroeder multiple times. However, she says she has “taken responsibility” for the part she played in the downfall of her marriage.
Mellencamp has taken responsibility for her part. But it is important to note that her cheating may have been a side effect of an unhappy marriage. In fact, some netizens have justified her cheating by pointing out that Arroyave paved the way for it because he also cheated in the past.
The speculations are just that, but Arroyave did cheat on Mellencamp with a woman named Missy between 2015 and 2016.
