    Teddi Mellencamp's new boyfriend is "really sweet and kind"

    The 43-year-old TV star has tried to keep the identity of her new man under wraps, but Teddi has offered an insight into their burgeoning romance


    Speaking on the Diamonds in the Rough podcast, Teddi shared: "I've had to make it clear to people I've dated [that] this is where I am. This is what I've got.

    "If it's enough for you, great. If it's not enough, I won't be upset. I mean, yes, my feelings will probably be hurting, but this is all I got to give. And if that's enough, great."

    Teddi then shared some details about their relationship, revealing that her boyfriend has been a really supportive influence in her life.

    The reality TV star - who has Slate, 12, Cruz, ten, and Dove, five, with her estranged husband Edwin Arroyave - said: "He is really sweet and kind.

    "He came and picked us up this week from the show, and he could tell that I was down. He sat and watched, like, one million hours of horse show rounds. He's just a good guy. I know I deserve it, and it's really nice."

    Teddi is battling stage four cancer but previously revealed that her tumours had all either "shrunk or disappeared".

    Despite this, Teddi would understand if her boyfriend got cold feet about their romance.

    She said: "If for some reason you realise you need somebody that doesn't have three kids, 1 million activities to do, 87 podcasts, you want more time than I'm able to give? I understand.

    "I would not be mad at you for not even a second. He's like, 'I am willing to do anything to be able to spend time with you.'"

    Teddi previously explained that she wants to keep her boyfriend's identity a secret because he's a "private person".

    Speaking on her Two Ts In a Pod podcast, which she co-hosts with Tamra Judge, Teddi said: "I'm dating somebody.

    "He's very kind to me, he's taking good care of me. He's nice ... he's not married, he doesn't have any kids. But he's also a private person."
