"Southern Charm" star Kathryn Dennis is being torn to shreds by fans after her meltdown during the reunion show.
The first part of the reunion was extra fiery with Kathryn being grilled about allegations she started a rumor about her former costar Cameran Eubanks. During the start of production, Kathryn was the first person to talk about an alleged affair Cameran's husband was carrying out. Cameran denied the allegations and quit the show.
Kathryn told Andy Cohen she was not the one who started the rumor. Others said the talk had been going on beforehand.
The first part of the reunion ended with Kathryn and Leva Bonaparte getting into it. Thomas Ravenel's baby mama accused her new costar of trying to turn her friends against her this season. To be honest, she's seemed a little mad that Leva was the one who schooled her on her alleged racist actions.
One fan wrote, "Well Kathryn fcked up. What do you expect? She needs to be held accountable, and having a black BF “conveniently” and pretending to be pregnant isn’t it."
"It's time to fire Kathryn Dennis @Andy She is racist, ignorant, and uneducated!!!," said another.
One person scolded Bravo writing, "I hope Kathryn Dennis gets fired. If they got rid of Stassi &, Kristen, then she must go. She ain't sorry about monkey emoji & all. There can be no tolerance for racism. I'm still waiting on Kim Zolciak's firing. It would mean a lot if #Bravo really makes a stance. Mean it."
As The Blast previously reported, the majority of this season on "Southern Charm" focused on Kathryn's alleged racism. Last year, Kathryn got into a social media argument with a black radio host/activist named Mika Gadsden. They were arguing about Kathryn's support for a planned Trump Boat parade in Charleston.
During the back and forth, Kathryn wrote Mika, “grow a pair. You’re an L 7 weeeeeenieeee. That’s how serious I take this” along with a monkey emoji.
The reality star also told Mika, "Stop using Charleston and ur minority claim as a platform to harass people."
Mika shared the message writing, “This is what happens when a Black woman in #Charleston speaks up against white supremacy.”
Kathryn immediately started catching heat from fans. Many asked Bravo to fire Kathryn and stop her from filming. However, the producers decided to use the incident as the main storyline this season. During the show, new costar Leva called out Kathryn for her behavior.
For the majority of the season, Kathryn avoided talking about the situation and claimed she never meant to be racist. Other cast members didn't buy her story and believe she could have done more to learn to be anti-racist.
