“Southern Charm” star Kathryn Dennis’ private texts with Thomas Ravenel are being revealed in court, where she trashed her former co-star Landon Clements.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Ravenel submitted text convos between him and Dennis to support his demand for sole support of their two kids Saint and Kensie.
Ravenel claimed the texts were evidence of Dennis’ alleged mental health problems. He claimed she exhibited “worrisome, erratic behavior” and accused her of being “extremely paranoid.” He claimed Dennis “always thought I was lying to her, cheating on her, or engaging in some kind of inappropriate behavior that I was trying to hide from her.”

The undated text messages (which were sent at some point during Dennis’ 2nd pregnancy) show the two arguing back and forth.
At one point during a conversation, Dennis was enquiring from Ravenel who had told him an alleged rumor about her.
Dennis text Ravenel, “I need you to stop hanging up on me and confront the situation. That would ease all of this anxiety & there would be no more animosity between the two of us. I need you to consider and understand how important it is that I know who repeated a lie of such magnitude to you since they appear on the show.

She continued, “Since you don’t want to tell me that it seems your loyalty lies with them. Not your family. And we can’t work together. You’re costing me my job, and my way of providing for our family. If you cannot tell me who said that to you and they appear on the show, all deals are off. I won’t put my family at risk just because you are willing to.”
Later in the conversation, she told Ravenel “Ur mentally crazy. In denial or a pathological liar.”
Ravenel responded, “sorry you feel that way.” She would later accuse him of “trying to kill me and my child. You’re storing (sic) the pot. Jennifer didn’t reach out to you! you reached out to her. To protect your bases.”
He told her, “Sorry. I cant participate in this craziness anymore”

Dennis then went for her former “Southern Charm” co-star 37-year-old Landon Clements, who once dated Ravenel.
She told Ravenel that “You and Landon are detrimental to my children. You do. Stay away. you can’t call me and tell me all of this about Landon isn’t true can you? That’s the craziness you can’t participate in. Everyone can see through this stuff Thomas.”

Later she demanded he answer about Landon because “if not, you both are going to be investigated. Because I want the truth about the lies spread about me and my family.” Ravenel offered to cease talking to Landon saying “I will no longer talk to her. It is more important that we get along and have a healthy relationship.”
On another day, she said “Also, did you know Landon is going around saying yall are so close and she sent you the listing for the house you were tying to get for me …”
Dennis text Ravenel “You’re trying to set me up! And you act like you care! Ew! I’m pregnant you bastard! You’re already torturing us. Especially your children. You’re a piece of shit. Fuck you! I’m sending your faily every message you have sent me.”
Ravenel believes the text convos will help his attempt to gain full custody of his kids from Dennis.
The Blast
Back in November 2018, Ravenel filed a lawsuit against Bravo and “Southern Charm” producers demanding a judge stop them from broadcasting unaired footage on the show.
Ravenel filed the docs as part of his custody battle with Dennis. She filed for primary custody of the children back in October. Dennis had her custody taken away in 2016 after failing a drug test but was awarded joint custody this year after completing rehab and staying clean.
In his suit against Bravo, Ravenel says the network and “Southern Charm” producers “encouraged” his ex to file for custody against him to create drama on the show.
He demanded Dennis not be awarded primary custody despite her request. Ravenel, who is about to be on trial for an alleged sexual assault in South Carolina, claimed he learned that Bravo and producers have unaired footage of his kids and ex talking about the legal battle and it was to be aired on the upcoming season. The reality star sued demanding a South Carolina judge prohibit the sensitive footage from airing on the show.
Ravenel would later file docs accusing Dennis of buying drugs from friends and show producers and even accused her of committing a hit-and-run.
He recently accused Dennis of failing a recent drug test when it came back positive for marijuana. He is requesting the court to only allow Dennis to have supervised visitation with their two kids Kensie and Saint. Dennis has disputed the test and pointed out her hair test came back clean. A judge has yet to rule. He demanded sole custody of the two kids due to the test results.
The case is ongoing.
