Thursday, April 10, 2025 at 8:00 PM

Real Housewives star Teddi Mellencamp revealed that her father, rock legend John Mellencamp, is arranging her burial as she battles Stage 4 cancer. "Yesterday, my dad calls 11 times in a row," she said on her podcast. "Finally, I answer. I'm like, 'I'm in the bath. Let me live a little.' He goes, 'I just want to make sure you're going to be in our group family mausoleum.'" She agreed, after making sure there would be still be room for kids as well. "You're doing your will right now, so you may as well put it in there," he told her. But she appreciates his daily calls of support...mostly. "Some days, I'm not in the mood," she said. "I don't want a pep talk. [I tell him] 'I'll talk to you tomorrow, I'll be more pep-talk ready, but I love you.'" Teddi received a stage 2 skin cancer diagnosis in 2022, but recently learned the melanoma had spread to her brain and lungs. (UPI)
