Congrats are in order for Teddi Mellencamp and husband Edwin Arroyave.
The couple is expecting their third child together.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star announced Wednesday that she is 14 weeks into her second trimester, and said the pregnancy was a “complete surprise.”
“My husband said, ‘I don’t want to see you going through IVF again — that was brutal,’” Mellencamp, 38, told Us Weekly. “It was so many rounds, but this time we really weren’t doing anything! I was on vacation! Just having fun with my family! I didn’t even know I was because I didn’t have a regular cycle.”
The health and wellness coach is mom to daughter Slate, 6, and son Cruz, 5. Arroyave also has a 10-year-old daughter, Isabella, from a previous relationship.
Mellencamp said her kids are “so excited” about their new baby brother or sister, adding that they already have names picked out for the new addition.
“They’ve been talking about it for a long time and actually it’s been my son who’s been like, ‘Mom, we need to have another baby,’ and I never wanted to get his hopes up,” she said. “So when we told him, he was through the roof. So excited.”
Mellencamp decided to open up to the public about her pregnancy because she is “in the clear” and was starting to show.
“I’m just starting to get to that point where I’m sharing with everybody,” she told Us Weekly. “Plus now I have a bump, so there’s not much more hiding I’ll be able to do!”
The reality star captioned a photo of her showing off her pregnant belly, “Life is full of miracles.”
