Teddi Mellencamp Hopes She Made Her Dad John Mellencamp ‘Proud’ on ‘The Masked Singer’
The secret is out!
The identity of Calla Lily was revealed in the February 4 episode of Fox’s The Masked Singer, and it was none other than The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp.
During her appearances on the competition series, Calla Lily had dropped some big clues as to her identity. During a performance of “Fight Song” in week 2, she said she’d received a life-changing health diagnosis. And during week 4, she’d said she was close to an American legend.
Then in week 5, Calla Lily belted out a version of John Mellencamp’s classic song “Jack and Diane.” Afterward, she showed off a key with a diamond.
Judge Jenny McCarthy put it all together.
“This is Teddi Mellencamp from the Housewives,” she said.
With her identity finally out there, Teddi, who has been diagnosed with melanoma, which eventually spread to her brain, was free to open up about her experience on the show.
“The secret is out! I hope you enjoyed watching my #CallaLilyMask journey on #TheMaskedSinger as much as I did performing! I really had the most amazing time on @maskedsingerfox,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Hope I made @johnmellencamp proud,” she added in a post on her Instagram Story.
Though Teddi is still undergoing treatment for cancer, she still managed to pull off her appearance on The Masked Singer, which impressed both her friends and her fans.
“I can’t believe you were able to do this with everything you are going through,” wrote fellow RHOBH star Kyle Richards. “Proud of you Ted.”
“Beyond proud of your bravery and strength!! Love you,” commented Teddi’s sister Justice Mellencamp.
