The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 44, confessed on the Jamie Kern Lima podcast to doing “things that hurt other people” and unintentionally “maximizing” the impact — which included her own divorce and Simon’s, which was filed by his ex-wife Karli after affair rumors bubbled up.

Teddi even posited that her stage 4 cancer diagnosis just months after the scandal was “payback” for straying. Certainly, her illness “put a new perspective on things,” says a source, explaining that Edwin, 48, pressed pause on their divorce “to support her. They had their kids [Slate, 12, Cruz, 10, and Dove, 5] to consider, and while there’s no denying that the relationship is damaged, Teddi is extremely sorry and regretful for what she did. If she could do things over again, she would.”
