Teddi Mellencamp Goes Instagram Official With New Boyfriend PJ Conley

Teddi Mellencamp has revealed the identity of the man she has been calling “Valley Guy.”

The former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star, 45, made her relationship with PJ Conley Instagram official on Aug. 11. She shared photos from a concert by her father, John Mellencamp, where Conley met her family, including her children and estranged husband, Edwin Arroyave.

Conley, who works as a financial benefits analyst, had previously been kept private and referred to as “Valley Guy” on Teddi’s podcast, “Two Ts in a Pod.” Teddi said her family quickly warmed to him, describing him as funny and saying he got along easily with her siblings and father.

Teddi joked that the nickname “Valley Guy” is likely to remain, even after revealing his real name.

The relationship comes nearly two years after Teddi filed for divorce from Arroyave following 13 years of marriage. The former couple share three children: Slate, 13, Cruz, 11, and Dove, 6.

Teddi has also been dealing with an ongoing cancer battle. After being diagnosed with stage 2 melanoma in 2022, she underwent multiple surgeries. In 2025, she revealed that the cancer had spread to her brain and lungs. Following brain surgery and immunotherapy, doctors told her in October 2025 that there was “no trace of cancer,” although she said she was not considered in remission.
