During the intimate moment outside of their family home in Los Angeles on Wednesday, November 13, Mellencamp, 43, stood with her eyes downcast and her hand on a large suitcase as Arroyave, 47, hugged her and kissed her head in photos obtained by TMZ.

Mellencamp previously said during a March 2023 episode of her “Two Ts in a Pod” podcast that she was contemplating divorce during her first season of RHOBH, which aired in 2017.

Mellencamp added that she started resenting Arroyave when she became financially dependent on him.

“To see @teddimellencamp embrace her pain and use it for the greater good again last night as she emceed the @curemelanoma gala, was a beautiful reminder of what she is capable of,” he wrote via Instagram alongside several photos of the pair, including a shot of them kissing. “Her story has already saved lives. And I couldn’t be prouder that she will continue to save more. Love you, Teds.”

The post was shared on October 25, five days after the date of separation that Mellencamp listed when filing for divorce.
