Teddi Mellencamp’s Kids Say Their Matching Top Gun Costumes are ‘Humiliating’ as She Jokes ‘Could Be Worse’

Teddi Mellencamp Arroyaveis happy that her family is willing to indulge her whims.

TheReal Housewives of Orange Countyalum, 41, shared a photo with husband Edwin Arroyave and their kids — daughters Dove, 2, and Slate, 9, and son Cruz, 6, as well as Edwin’s daughter Isabella, 12, from a previous relationship. The family of six wore matchingTop Guncostumes for Halloween, which Teddi admitted her kids weren’t thrilled about in the caption of her Instagram post on Sunday.

“They felt the need…the need to speed right out of these costumes after we got this pic,” Teddi joked. “Apparently, it’s humiliating to wear matching outfits after you turn anything over 7.”

“I mean, could be worse… could be matching Christmas jammies,” she continued. “Which reminds me, need to order matching Christmas jammies. Anybody else enjoy a group costume?”

The photo shows the Arroyave kids looking less than amused in the photo, with Bella in a full pout, which Teddi joked about with the hashtag, “Bella approved this post.”
