Teddi Mellencamp and Edwin Arroyave Spend Thanksgiving Apart Amid Divorce Mediation


Teddi Mellencamp and Edwin Arroyave will spend Thanksgiving apart this year as they work through their divorce. Sources close to the former couple reveal that Teddi will celebrate the holiday with their children—Slate, Cruz, and Dove—at her father John Mellencamp's home in Indiana, continuing a long-standing family tradition.

Edwin, who typically joined the Mellencamps for the holiday, will instead spend Thanksgiving with his own family, including his eldest daughter, Isabella, from a previous relationship.

In a recent development, Teddi filed new court documents addressing custody arrangements. Initially seeking sole custody of their three children with visitation rights for Edwin, she has now requested joint physical and legal custody, mirroring Edwin’s request.

The change reflects the couple's commitment to co-parenting and prioritizing their children's well-being as they navigate the mediation process for their divorce.
