“After a great deal of care and consideration, I have made the difficult decision to file for divorce,” Teddi said. “My priority is my children and ensuring that every care is taken with their privacy and wellbeing throughout this new chapter.”
“Making a public statement is not something I wanted to do, but in an effort to protect my family from undue speculation and rumors, I felt being open, honest and vulnerable was the best path forward,” she added.
Arroyave has not yet commented on the news.
Teddi, 43, and Arroyave, 47, married in 2011. The former couple have welcomed three children together: Slate, 12, Cruz, 10, and Dove, 4. Teddi is also a stepmom to Arroyave’s daughter, Isabella, 15, from a previous marriage.
