‘RHOBH’ alum Teddi Mellencamp has awkward run-in with Karli Postel amid affair controversy
This is embarrassing! The revelation of 'RHOBH' alum Teddi Mellencamp's divorce has caused a stir, igniting widespread rumors within the horse show community.
Reports suggest that Teddi Mellencamp allegedly had an affair with her horse trainer, Simon Schröder, despite his being married to Eoyavedwin Arr. The affair reportedly lasted for several months.
Can you guess who she met at the most recent horse show? Oh, the wife of her lover! On Thursday, November 14, Teddi and Karli Postel attended the Las Vegas National Horse Show at South Point Arena and Equestrian Center, according to Dailymail.com. The former 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star attended the competition in support of her 12-year-old daughter, Slate.
Karli also took part in the competition. Hailing from Westlake Village, California, she grew up immersed in equestrian life, thanks to her family’s ownership of the nearby Foxfield Riding School. She carried her passion for riding and showcasing horses into college, having concentrated on equitation and jumper rings during the latter half of her high school years.
Karli went to Goucher College in Baltimore, Maryland, on the East Coast to finish her studies, where she participated in the Intercollegiate Horse Shows Association outside of her academic pursuits. Recently, her horse, Full Moon Fever, claimed victory in the $25,000 USHJA National Hunter Derby on November 12. Although both women were present at the equestrian event, they allegedly never spoke to each other. However, as they sat in the grandstand, watching the riders just a few yards away, the tension on their faces was unmistakable.
Interestingly, despite filing to have their marriage dissolved since Simon was legally married to someone else, Karli still seemed to be wearing her wedding band on that finger. Yes, that is a weird turn of events in this already bizarre tale of cheating!

Karli checked the "prior existing marriage or domestic partnership" box in an amended petition for nullity of marriage that was filed on November 6, 2023, citing this as the basis for her request. On February 29, 2024, the judgment to dissolve their marriage was submitted.
