THOMAS RAVENEL’S GIRLFRIEND SAYS HE’S INNOCENT
By FITSNEWS || Kathryn Dennis – the 23-year-old star of Bravo TV’s Southern Charm drama and girlfriend of independent U.S. Senate candidate Thomas Ravenel – is disputing recent assault allegations leveled against her boyfriend.
“Thomas never hit that girl,” Dennis told FITS, referring to her hairstylist Lauren Moser.
According to a police report made public this week, Moser alleged that Ravenel assaulted her during a late night visit to his Charleston, S.C. residence. Moser also claims Ravenel fell into the pool at the house earlier that evening while carrying his and Dennis’ seven-month-old daughter, Kensington Calhoun Ravenel.
Dennis – who was at the house at the time – is disputing Moser’s version of events.
“We are good people, nobody (and I mean nobody) knows what happened besides those who were there — including me,” she told FITS. “Anything false that is said, I will be correcting.”
Well, well …
We guess the question of whether Dennis will “stand by her man” has been definitively answered – along with the question of why Ravenel has not been arrested in the aftermath of the incident (he had a witness affirming his innocence).
Ravenel’s U.S. Senate candidacy – which began with high hopes this summer – has devolved into chaos. We suppose that’s just what happens when the whole thing is being filmed for a reality television show, though.
Oh well …
On the morning the assault story broke, Ravenel gave a radio interview during which he showed flashes of the policy expertise and political brilliance that fueled his rise in South Carolina politics ten years ago (prior to a 2007 drug arrest that led to his resignation as state treasurer).
Sadly, he was never able to channel that brilliance into a consistent, coherent message – nor effectively manage his chaotic personal life.

This is just a sad situation. A 50 something giving the pork to a 20 year old. They now have a baby together. They need to settle down a bit now.
She is an idiot!
Will grow up to be just like Nikki Haley!
You’re giving her way too much credit!! Not a fan of Nikki Haley, but at least she has ambition and an education. Kathryn is an uneducated, very promiscuous, drunken party-girl whose only ambition is to sleep her way into never having to work a day in her life. She will follow in the footsteps of Nancy Thurmond…a sad, lonely old alcoholic.
I agree, but Nancy hooked a much larger fish.
And a fish that had quite a bit of credibility.
Totally agree, but Nancy was also a better catch…educated, classy and a beauty queen. Kathryn is none of those things, but she wanted desperately to be a rich, political wife…and this is the best that someone of her caliber could do.
And we know what that say about an “old mans’ kid.
Every guy over 50 reading this is thinking, about the the giving of the pork to a 20 year old, “And this is sad HOW, again?” Now … the having a baby part … yeah, that gets into pathos kinda heavy right there.
It *is* very sad, and if you don’t get that then I hope you’re having fun in whatever seedy strip joint you’re decaying in. That aside, fully-formed grown ass men don’t touch, flirt, or wink at any female below the standard (your age÷2)+7 minimum, and that’s pushing it. Personally, I couldn’t give two shits whether an experience-deficient twaddle-spewing airhead would consider me “doable” for either my carcass or my wallet.
If a man T-Rav’s age was chasing my 23 year old daughter I’d turn him out on his sleazy ass without a second thought.
Same here. Absolutely.
But holy shit, dude, lighten up a bit. I was just making an observation, not commenting on the morality of it.
Kindly noted. I’ve taken the dial down off “11”…
Appreciated. And I really do appreciate where you are coming from with the comment. I can be course, but at heart I do feel empathy with her family. What an embarrassment!
And then the falling in the pool with the baby, even sadder.
Oh yea? Get rid of the hairdresser.
The girl came over at 11pm with her “stuff” — and I still want to know what her “stuff” is..!!
Scissors, clippers, dye, and that aluminum foil stuff they use on women’s hair? Weed, Blow, and X? A bag full of “adult” toys? Who knows?
The story went that the baby was asleep so why wake her up? And why did he get naked in front of the hairdresser? A very goofy bunch of folks, but I’m searching for some humor in the situation.
And why did he get naked in front of the hairdresser?
“South of Broad” manscaping gone bad?
Plus da poosay, and then would not give it up?
Adult toys, perhaps?
“We are good people”. I had to stop reading after that.
“We are good people”. I had to stop reading after that.
*screams*
“Don’t JUDGE me!!!”
TBG *seen* it on TV!

Threesome gone bad.
Probably not ‘bad’ — just ‘gone’….
Another example of the influence of power of men on women. This young woman, the scion of one of SC’s most powerful men, now deceased and a friend of my family through my late grandfather, a long-time veteran, now deceased, of the General Assembly, appears to be totally dominated and in the thrall of the scion of another SC long-time politician. Incidentally, we are connected through our common Huguenot heritage.
This is, simultaneously, both a humorous look at out-of-control and narcissistic individuals, one young and one old enough to better control himself, and a simple “train-wreck” in the common lexicon of 2014.
Do I believe her account of events? No. Do I believe her female friend’s account? It probably has more truth than young Katherine’s.
I am left with the same conclusion I came to this with, Thomas Ravenel is a prime example of a man with way too much time on his hands and unworthy of the attention his admirer and defender, Will Folks, gives him.
Even with the butt-effing he has received in recent weeks, young Folks just can’t “give him up.”
Not sad, but true.
She is not from the “good side” of the family! Do not place her among the “elite” of SC. Her dad was an average guy with a good name.
Also, you might ant to look into the scandal surrounding her dad.
People lie …. men lie … women lie … politicians lie … cops lie … lawyers lie … judges lie …Catholic Priest lie … Obama lies … Lindsey Graham lies …. Who Really Knows The Truth?
You forgot Nikki Haley lies!
Hey, you keep forgetting, in your boilerplate language on TRav, to include that he renounced his citizenship a few years back.
Never heard that he apologized or unrenounced it.
As Ed McMahon would say…”You are correct, sir!”
Not only did he not recant or apologize, he basically said that we are all stupid for not being able to tell that he was just kidding! A little high brow sarcasm for the little people…
It was obvious from the outset of this thing that TR was just a piece of shit guy. A spoiled, entitled, narcissistic, lying, vapid, intellectually challenged, POS at that. Obvious to everyone, that is, except FITS. He drank the Kool-Aid, and hard.
Just like FITS carries the water for Lee Bright and Mark “Shirker” Sanfraud.
The guy just gravitates to their supposed voting record and fails to see the dickheads as the way they really from they way they vote.
PBS had an excellent show on tonight about How Nixon won in 1968 and his final legacy may very well be how he changed to political landscape for generations to come and very possibly not for the better.
If they really were “good people,” they wouldn’t have to tell us all the time.
Actions speak louder than words.
Why would she lie? She’s about as ethical as he is.
Kathryn is the female replica of Thomas. Sad…especially for the baby.
Time is hitting her like a sledge hammer. 23 going on 44, Google her name and look at her without makeup, she’s damn near hideous looking. Alcohol, drugs, chain smoking and sun worshiping will catch up with you in a hurry.
So true!! I’ve seen her and she is really rough looking in person. Looks twice her age. She requires a LOT of professional help to even look presentable…and I’m so tired of hearing how she comes from this prominent family and such and such. Her family has been broke for years and she is void of any class or refinement. No matter how hard they try to convince otherwise…it’s just lipstick on a pig.
Now I know why all her pics are black & whites.
If her family is so refined and revered in this state, why is it that I’ve lived here for 26 years now and never heard of them until Will tripped over his tongue a couple years ago… back when his blog would show R-rated photos. When your family hasn’t done anything for three generations, your name really doesn’t mean much anymore. I expect Ravenel will die out by the time the bastard child reaches high school and her dad is 70 years old.
But why does this matter, right? Its all his personal life? His principals are the tripe he spews at speeches, thats why we should vote for him remember? Right? Right?
Girl! A good hairstylist is hard to find!
Ebola in NYC, a possible lone wolf terrorist attack on two of New York City’s Finest and we get Standing By Her Man.
Priorities, baby…priorities!
Drudge report awaits so you can spare us your incessant bitching.
Don’t know anything about Drudge report, so I guess you’ll just have to ignore me, as I will you.
BTW you can save your whine, I don’t drink. :)
“…he showed flashes of the policy expertise and political brilliance that fueled his rise in South Carolina politics ten years ago…”
Oh my fucking hell again! Will simply can’t cut all of his ties to this guy and admit he either got totally had, or did the Lenny Bruce (“Be a man…sell out!”). We all make mistakes; own this one. Throw that house key and toothbrush at him and walk away. Delete his emails without opening them, and don’t listen to the sniffy “I’m so sorry, baby” voicemails.
Walk … away …
+10
“Oh my fucking hell again!”
I’m up-voting you just because of the profanity! :)
I try to take the positive influences from everyone here and constantly improve my performance…you’re my “angry profanity” muse… ;-)
Walk … away …
Don’t forget to return the CATO cds…
Take down the 80′ Fathead off the side of your house. It was fun while it lasted…
Turn your crazy head and walk away

I’m guessing Willie will defend his continuance of giving this douche more attention than he deserves as “getting traffic,” but at some point the clicks aren’t fucking worth it. If he’s really that terrible of a person then hit him where it hurts, and since you can’t hit him in the wallet, hit him in the ego by taking the spotlight off of him.
If this site can survive an absence of titties, it can survive the absence of an asshole too.
“If this site can survive an absence of titties, it can survive the absence of an asshole too.”
Awesomeness. I nominate this as the FITS Commenter Line of the Month…
I’ve never seen the show (and I ain’t about to start now!!!) but that is one fine picture of a good looking girl.
It takes a LOT of work to make her look good. Without a professional make-up artist and hairstylist she’s frightening!!
I have seen her without the “face armor.” You don’t want that…

The only defense I offer for her, is that her genetic stock comes from a great thinker, not a great looker:

Unfortunately, it looks like she got the looks but not the brains.
She thinks they are both going to be movie stars.
Simply put, these people are trailer park trash with a few bucks.
Ms. Dennis is a hundred pounds from being Honey Boo Boo’s mom.
Maybe so, but she sure looks good now.
In a photo, yes. In full makeup, yes, with professional stylist, yes. With the light just right, yes.
But without it, she is a 5 on a scale of 10.
5 is being generous.

Good god, I take it back.

Holy shit…
Sweet Jesus….she looks like a baby that just guiltily shit in her diaper in that first one….T-Rav really did rob the cradle.
Dear god, that’s horrific.
Bet you’ll need to use a brown paper bag in the morning, maybe two.
The Blues Brothers singing Stand By Your Man at Country Bob’s came to mind. Now I can’t get it out of my mind since it’s first thing in the morning.
I saw one of Ravenel’s ads on this morning, he had his baby in his hands. I’m guessing the ad was filmed before he baptised it the other night.
Word on street is Harrell has named Haley in an indictment and they waiting after the election to announce it.
DO NOT TEASE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course she is, this sloot is all about the Benjamin’s and daddy T-Rav is locked in to paying her and her jacked up named child them for life.
“…the 23-year-old star of…”
Mmmmmkay.
She’s neither a star nor a celebrity of any note. Being 23 years old, anything that escapes her lip-glossed pie hole on any subject other than being T-Rav’s rented baby mama will be, by definition, inane drivel.
“Ravenel’s U.S. Senate candidacy – which began with high hopes this summer…”
Only on this website, you duplicitous pay-for-play blowhard.
Damn…you nailed both of those…
They act like the trash they assume they are better than.
“Ravenel gave a radio interview during which he showed flashes of the policy expertise and political brilliance that fueled his rise in South Carolina politics ten years ago”
LMAO! Pretty sure it was his daddy’s name and the (R) on the ballot that “fueled his rise.”
Where is DSS? These people don’t need a baby!!! If any other citizen in the State of SC was accused of fighting, falling into a pool while holding a baby and Lord only knows what else DSS would have been over there in a skinny minute with half of the Charleston Police force with a court order. They would have ripped that child out of their snooty arms and stuck it in a Foster Home somewhere in an unknown area in the other side of Charleston and possibly given the family 1 hour a week visitation until they could go to court to decide if these allegations were true. In the meantime we would have to come up with a safety plan and fill out 300 pages of paper work. What is up with this???
What’s the name of her show? Party down south? Didn’t they get thrown outta MI?
You can just smell the skank coming from that picture…
