Southern Charm has been filming for several weeks without Kathryn Calhoun Dennis. Instead we have seen new girl Eliza Limehouse filming a lot. If you missed the explanation on why Kathryn is out and Eliza is in click here.
Tamara Tattles exclusive source has now told us that Kathryn has signed a contract.
This is great news!
However….
The same source say that everyone is refusing to film with her except for Naomie and Eliza.
As we saw last season, for reasons I cannot fathom, Landon and Cameran have taken up permanent residence in the apparently cavernous anal cavity of the elderly carpet bagger. They have all taken some sort of moral stand against Kathryn and have determined that the Christian thing to do is to shun her.
With regard to the male cast, it seems that Thomas is calling the shots when it comes to Kathryn. In some ways this is logical based on the contentious nature of their custody battle. However, at the moment Thomas has full physical custody of both kids and Kathryn has visitation. Also at the very beginning of filming, Thomas allegedly had a hissy fit himself because he felt he was being left out of major scenes. Sadly, it seems he has no issue with icing Kathryn out of major scenes.
Show what will the show be like now? Will K Cooper Ray reverse his decision and sign back up to film with Kathryn? Will Kathryn film only with Naomie and Eliza? Will we see some sort of parallel story line, one with Kathryn and another with everyone else? Will Bravo get Kathryn a place to live in Charleston, or will they film her at her parents Monck’s Corner house? Will production continue to allow this mutiny on the battery? Or will they put their foot down?
Stay tuned as this story continues to develop…
Yes. Please. All of it.
“Cavernous anal cavity” Bhahahahaha, ROFLMAO!!! Made my day.
Very interesting indeed !!!
They must be reading and seeing that many are not happy about her being gone from the show. There is no show without Kathryn.
I would love to see Cooper return and film.more with her and build a team of the good vs the evil. I just cannot take dolphin girl Landon. They probably figured out that Landon is about as dull as they come and I personally get more entertainment from looking at a rotting plank than watching or hearing her nails on a chalkboard voice. As to Cameran she just went to the dark side.
Time will tell! But I am always going to be #TeamKatherynDennis and #TeamKCooperRay
I love this comment so much because I agree with everything you said, Diane!! Katherine has a southern belle saga going on, which is dramatic and she is emotional and pretty funny too #Dolphin! XD
I think that Pat’s son… what’s his name…? Whitney or Whitley? Anyway, IDK for certain, but I think he has say in deciding the edit and cast. If so, it’s a testament to his poor instincts as to what drives a good story. Either that or he has no loyalty to his profession (or his audience, if this is true). It’s like he has No eye focused on the show, and he’s blind to the fact he just stumbled into Reality hit TV Gold, on Bravo no less!! So then, where is he looking? At the drama itself? LMAOO I think he’s still caught up in it. I think the Kathryn Incident must have burned him deeply and no amount of denial can cover that up, lols.
I reckon Whit’s the type of guy to think himself above it all even while he’s covering up hurt feels. He sneers at our sweet fiery ginger, Kathryn because she didn’t do as she promised; she didn’t do her job as was casted for ;). But he sneers at us as well. Fabulous Cooper let us know what time it is, on that account lols!
But hey dudely, you didn’t do as you promised, not to Bravo or to the viewers. We deserve producers that create a compelling story. And dang it, a great tale just dropped in your lap!! But because of your petty emo drama, you deny us … or just fail to deliver the goods?? So silly. So, there’s second tier drama here, then lols. Show us that! Show us your angst and the bitchery of Pat. That would be interesting too! But no more with the guitar. Don’t waste our time with these selfie scenes of you and the guitar. We have seen that. Enough. Show us the real you or just leave. I reckon you have no taste or ambition for Reality TV. I imagine that description extends to much of your life in general…*yawns…*
Meanwhile, viewers just want to know what mischief our beautiful Kate and charming Cooper are getting up to!! Hope this news pans out Tamara!! Thanks as always for getting the sweet tea!! ???
Whitless just pitched the show. He is a “producer” in name only. He may have some access to intel and get to upgrade his hotel room but that’s about it.
I definitely will not watch a group of “adults” that think it is ever ok to ice someone, ANYONE, out!
Wow!! My guess is that they came to the conclusion that the show was as dull as watching paint dry without Miss Katheryn so they had to offer her a contract !! I am overjoyed!!!
Me too! Now for KCooper to return !
Oh happy day!
I hope Katheryn held out long enough that she ends up getting the highest paying contract of the whole cast. She deserves it, for many reasons. But, gawd, I hope she’s able to hold her own against her awful fellow cast members and shows them what “southern charm” really means (because they sure don’t exhibit any of it themselves).
I kinda doubt we will see Cooper Ray. He really shaded ole Patricia. He said she was jealous of Katheryn’s youth and beauty. Kathryn really needs a good ally with most of the cast refusing to film with her. A couple of seasons ago someone had printed some real dirt on the crypt keeper and she threatened to sue. I think it was about her ex-husbands etc. It was really juicy. Was kinda hoping the Hurricane washed Patricia and her man servant out to sea. No sorry, I would save him.
Um, that would be me. Good times. Still have my fingers crossed for a court date with the old hag. Can you imagine the ratings?
http://tamaratattles.com/2015/04/17/jesus-damn-yankees-are-difficult-creatures/
What happened with the cease and desist?!? Nothing? You’re still waiting… I just read it all and cracked up. I hope you made lots of ad dollars for your very nice handbag. You are amazing!
Oh that would be Whatshername Kent Cook!
Suzanne Kent Cook, gold-digger extraordinaire and ex-wife of Washington Redskins Owner Jack Kent Cook. Takes one to know one…
TRav can’t stay away from Kathryn. They’ll film soon enough. Shep will also join in. And isn’t the lazy lawyer–I’m forgetting his name–he loves Kathryn. I’m sure she’ll stir up plenty of drama. I absolutely love her. Thanks for the tea!
I feel for Katheryn. She is almost single handedly having to face the power and wealth of TRav. I imagine that he has the resources to hire the nannies and other personnel to cover the needs of his precious children. That does not mean that he is the best Dad or a decent parent. I want Katheryn to thrive and enjoy the early years of motherhood, not waste away and remain overcome with her current situation. I am rooting for her and hope to see her this coming season.
I agree with you, Librarygirl. It appears the world, or at least the World According to the Low Country forgot he was in prison. And…she’s the bad one? Oh for pity’s sake, the viewers are not that stupid.
It is odd that the court didn’t take his incarceration into consideration. Many politicians resign in disgrace, but Trav was indicted for cocaine use. This was a felony indictment I think. He is a disgrace. It’s bad enough a grown man slept with a young girl 30 years his junior, but how irresponsible for him not to use a condom. Then he impregnated her a second time and abandoned her again. I think he is terrible for bad-mouthing the mother of their 2 children, and even worse that he is on a mission along with his juvenile friends to ice her out of filming.
Yes!!!! Made my day TT! #teamkathryn
The earlier tea on Kathryn’s struggles was really sad. It really sounds like she’s in a delicate state. And as much as I was entertained by her one liners and entranced by her make-up application scenes and the kabuki finish to her face, I don’t want to watch someone enabled by Bravo. This is tricky stuff. If Thomas really had an evil streak, he might suggest she film as much as possible and then subpoena for footage to use in any future legal filings.
Landon…ugh! Her constant whiney upward inflection is maddening! Not to mention that she is about as bright as a 4 watt bulb…bless her heart.
Do not understand how she’s not hated by the other cast members. That’s the most perplexing part for me. How don’t they hate her?
Kate Gates, simply put the reason Landon is not hated by the other cast members is that she has perfected the act of ass kissing of the snobby, pseudo-southern Patricia and stroking the ego (or whatever else needs stroking in my opinion) of the lecherous, drunk TRav. With that accomplished the rest just fall in line.
I wish someone had the backbone to call her on her shit, that wasn’t Kathryn. Imagine if someone in the cast *cough* Shep, Craig, Naomi *cough* asked told her, on camera, to drop the petty bitch act. She would melt off the screen and the people would rejoice!
I only watched this show one time, and never again. I may have to start this season. They all reminded me of my Mother in Law from Texas. My Mother in Law is Paula Deen with red hair and rhinestones. She calls herself “fluffy” and at the end of every sentence she adds the phrase “n everthang.” Those Glay-mour shots are nice n everthang.. the food was good n everthang. These women are a more-refined version of course, but the whole show just reminds me of her.
OMG I love your mother in law an errythang! Can I come to Thanksgiving?
God knows she loves feeding everyone and she calls her stuffing “dressing” not stuffing. Only problem is, I won’t be there this year! Tell them you’re a friend of mine but I don’t know how well that will go over. You may end up with an intentional rhinestone or two in your dressing.
I was smiling and nodding until I got to “stuffing.” No self-respecting southerner can call it that, LisaPat! I’ll pray for you, lol?
It is DRESSING YOU ASSHAT! This is why southerners in-breed. Y’all are all just morons.
I sadly do not have a single familial connection to the south except a crazy in-law who was not born there, just lived there for 10 years and calls herself (in earnest) a “real southern lady,” which all my friends who are actually Southern find hilarious (I do, too). However, my grandmother who rarely left Ohio her whole life always had us call it dressing because she said since we didn’t stuff it (in a bird) we couldn’t call it stuffing. So I’m with you on the dressing sentiment, TT.
And, LisaPat, I want your MIL. I would have been thrilled with red-haired, fluffiness, a twang and rhinestones! Instead I got one who is short, wasp-thin, unstable, religiously intolerant and who think anyone that takes more than two bites of anything is a gluttonous pig with no self control. So much fun with that one. Really.
Well now that’s interesting because I grew up in the North and we always referred to it as dressing in my house. My dad was from Mississippi, but my mother was a Polish Chicago native and called it that as well. I honestly had no idea “dressing” was a Southern term.
I grew up in the Chicago Metro area in a Polish neighborhood. I never heard of it mentioned as dressing until I moved to the south. Along with referring to adding lettuce tomato and such on a sandwich as the sandwich being dressed.
Georgia Girl here…we call it dressing because true Southerners think “stuffing” it in the cavity, and cooking it all day, then eating it is disgusting…at least that is what my Grandma’s taught us. We make several Pyrex sides of dressing to serve up. Ohhhhh, the drama in my family over dressing. Some say you add celery, others say you don’t. Some add sage, some don’t. Then there are THOSE people that add boiled eggs…White Trash as far as Granny was concerned..LOL..When my father remarried, my paternal grandmother could not stand to go to my stepmother’s families house for the holidays. She would sit in the corner sulking while simultaneously bitching about their “dry” dressing. Honestly, it was dry as shit. Luckily I am married to a Northerner who is happy with Stove Top…saves me a step. Personally, I could do without it all together. Sorry for the dressin lesson? now I miss my grandmother:(
I grew up in the north and the south. We call it stuffing if it is cooked stuffed in the bird cavity and dressing if it cooked on the side. Either way cover it in gravy and enjoy!!
I am so pleased Kathryn is going to be on my screen again. I really hope it’s a Camille Grammar redemption tour and not a nail in her coffin. I was not going to watch this season without Kathryn. If the show could follow TRav’s scheming against her that would be a bonus. #TeamKathryn #TeamKCoop
Is this a good place for me to sneak in that I don’t think this is the best thing for Kathryn?
Because for me, it makes me so happy! But it may not end well… just saying…
I agree TT. These people will stop at nothing, and I would imagine without life experience of plenty more years than she has, may be rough for her.
That’s exactly how I feel. It’s not good for her and they all gaslight her, but she makes the show worth watching.
I echo these sentiments, TT. As a fan, I don’t want a show without her, as a fellow human being I continue to worry for her psychological safety. I don’t think TRav is a bad father, but he was a SHITTY partner to the mother of his kids and a whiny, immature vindictive individual towards her now.
You all can’t see it but I am doing a #HappyDance in my living room! I really thought that sweet girl deserved another chance to redeem herself after all the rumors (or maybe they weren’t) that were all over the internet about her “lifestyle choices” after last season. I heard she was asked to come on the show originally by Whitnut Sudler-Smith She did….. got pregnant…. twice….then many broken promises later…kicked to the curb. (which may of been the cause for her alleged downward spiral)
She was the reason for the show’s success! & maybe now…. Thanks to a lot of us bitching online, they see it too This made my day! Thx TT
Rofl !! I had a feeling you would say that because I saw TeeCee’s Thanksgiving post one year and she called it the same thang, n everthang!
I’ve tried to edify you before about tomatoes and…well that went off the rails. But I will try once again. First of all, stuffing is stuffed into a bird. That’s great if you want salmonella, but dressing is made in a giant POTTERY (never aluminum unless you want old timers and cancer), Dressing is THE BEST PART OF THANKSGIVING and if my new mother in law wants to sprinkle in rhinestones I will politely swallow them.
You have the best mother in law in the history of the UNIVERSE. How do you not see this?
mmm, sausage dressing with lots of celery and onions or oyster dressing
Yes to oyster dressing
Yes, yes and everything you said! I will forgo the turkey, the greens and the pumpkin pie if you just let me have Maw’s dressing. Oh, and please pass the gravy.
OK, here’s the ultimate proof of my inner Miss Piggy. Best sandwich in the world – two slices of really good bread, cold dressing/stuffing, turkey and cold gravy, with lots of salt and pepper. Heaven! Of course, I also like french fries with gravy.
The thing that confuses me is that people are WILLING to film with Landon. I don’t get it. Why is she welcome with these people? Why is she not the one excluded? Why is she even welcome back on screen? Does anyone have any idea??
Oh that voice. That whining, unnerving voice. Landon really is a snake in the grass. Its’ not stirring the pot, because she’s too poor to own a pot but she lies and connives and then plays the innocent friend. This got so old last season. Poor girl couldn’t even to go to the city and regurgitate a business plan. She hangs on Thomas Ravannel and then pleads that they are just friends. That’s what throat punches are for. That girl is just lipstick on a pig. Cam use to be my favorite but she got a bit nasty, and holier-than-thou and it wasn’t a very attractive look for her. Mean girls.
“That girl is just lipstick on a pig” Hahahahaha I die!!! Best line ever!!! Thomas is a strange germ. And strange for gold diggers to hang on to considering how grossely he treated Kathryn. Creepy Landon won’t get a dime!
These people are all basic and 1D except Kathryn. That said, she’s young and has made big mistakes, but I hope she can build her defenses up, find resilience, and rise above their bs. That would be beautiful to see. If it goes the other way, I agree it would be very sad to watch 🙁 don’t need another sequel to mean girls.
You are right…love this! Posting now! ?
I won’t be watching I can not bear to see those people treat Kathryn like garbage . I watch these shows to be entertained not outraged .
I am thrilled to hear she is back, just hope its not too soon for her.
Having to be around Landon and some of the others, would make anyone want an escape.
I hope Craig and Shep and some of the others come around.
Prayers for Kathryn not to let their childishness and immaturity get to her.
#TeamKathryn
This is awesome. I can’t even comment this is the one Bravo Show that really gets me riled up and gets under my skin. Makes me crazy. I hate Landon. I love Kathryn. I can’t believe, though, that she lost custody. That’s heartbreaking. She needs to get it together. I hope she can get redemption.
Wow TT , should have known it would have been you to have the best tea. It was indeed.
I am happy as long as she is healthy. There was NOTHING more morally f’kd up than watching that train wreck with Kim from Beverly Hills . That reminded me of Anna Nicole Smith, and we know how that turned out. I am sure after looking at the story lines, THERE IS NO STORY LINE WITHOUT MISS CALHOUN. On a different note, I am pretty addicted to the Hamilton soundtrack, so I won’t be able to hear the name “Eliza ” without singing the song about ELIZA ( ♪♫♬loud high note♪♫♬) ugh..damn you Eliza!!!
Yay!! Mesohappy she’s coming back, though I did want to see the others crash and burn without her giving them something to focus their empty lives on. Once she has gotten passed the heartbreak of losing custody she can realize the old fart has to do all the grudge work and she can have them for fun times. Like week-end dads do. Ok, no mom gets over that, but silver lining and all that. I love to love Kathryn and I love to hate Landon. The boys are all just dorks. pfft The carpet bagger is terminally pathetic. I love to watch her seethe at Kathryn’s youth and beauty. LOL Thanks for the awesome tea! Oh, and we always call it dressing as well.
Katherine probably had to film simply because probably 99# of filming footage was all talk about her. She became the belle of the ball and this show is centered around her. You know it kills the others and they can’t shit up long enough about her to understand that they are the reason she is THE show. I just hope she keeps Thomas away and doesn’t get bred again!
YES!!! Wonder though what happened to make Shep Craig and Dani refuse to film with her too??
shep craig and Dani have since filmed with her according to Kathryn.
Relieved to hear Shep, Craig and Dani haven’t been drinking Carpetbagger KoolAid. At least not enough to make them refuse filming with Kathryn. Can we just get a show with KCR, Kathryn and some INTERESTING Charleston residents and dump everyone else?
Ooh. Thank you for the update TT!
i really dont think they refuse to film with her because of ~morals~~ that’s just a storyline for the show. i think it’s because she is just terrible to be around. she’s mean and explosive, and not funny or charming to makeup for her terribleness
OMGoodness, erb. I was beginning to think that I was the only person who remembers Kathryn’s earlier behavior.
She is volatile and, IMO, manipulative. Even though she “drove her ducks to poor water” she had a plan. Unfortunately a good bit of that plan worked.
I would watch this show if none of the present cast were on because the city is the real star for me.
YAY! I wish the show would lose Landon; she’s just a lump, and a mean one at that.
I am SO happy Kathryn is back. I will definitely keep watching. Since Whitney is one of the producers of the show I wonder if he realized the show would start to tank without her. I get she has issues and needs to grow up but the fact she is ostracized while Thomas is just as bad and gets love from everyone is such a double standard.
I really don’t get why people dislike Landon so intensely. I mean Kathryn was/is a straight up bitch to Landon with absolutely no good reason but her over active jealous imagination. Should Landon kiss Kathryn’s ass and thank her for the privilege of taking her constant bullshit?
I think all of the ganging up on Kathryn is deplorable but let’s not pretend it doesn’t come without a lot of meri on Kathryn’s part.
That said the show will probably suck without her prominently displayed. Sounds to me like they’re pulling her in late to appease fans and prevent wholesale loss of viewers, but tonly to eventually phase her out.
IDK where this cast thinks the rest of the USA is, but come on! They look antiquated, shallow, and stupid compared to Kathryn. We are not buying your brand of sophistication Camryn. In this election year, out Thomas and his paid off lawyer/and judge, AND give us the truth behind this jacked up “reality” TV show. Shame on y’all.
I love Kathryn and hope this season does not capitalize on the demise of her failure to keep custody of her children. That’s a really sad place. Hopefully if shows more of her getting herself together and gaining more parental rights back and her fight to get to the top of her personal game.
Unfortunately, I think they WILL paint her in a negative light. I hope she has her shit together before going on television again and giving Thomas more evidence against her. I know she needs to make a dollar, and that show is no good without her, but is this really in her best interest?
I agree completely cheychey!
In MY world, if you sign a contract, you fulfill it. If you don’t want to film with someone, then you’ve broken your contract and good friggin’ luck to you. I love Kathryn and the fire she brings. My fingers are crossed for Lord K. Cooper Ray to return! He’s outrageous, jysterical and sane at the same time.
Hysterical sorry I was so exciteded I can’t type!
I agree. I think it’s BEYOND ridiculous for these spiteful hatemongers to dictate who they will and won’t film with. B, you’re not Madonna! And, apparently they are too stupid to figure out that they’ve made her the show’s martyr by being so vicious.
Well I hope they show what really is going on. I’m over reality tv that does not show reality, such as rhony. I dont like when they act like all is good and off the show its the train wreck I want to watch.
I stopped watching this show. It’s too much. They ruin people’s lives.
I’ll actually watch since Kathryn is returning! I really hope K Cooper Ray returns as well. I’m disappointed with Shep if he’s participating in the Kathryn freeze-out. I hope he doesn’t do a 180 on us like Cameran did last season.
I hope she’s up to the task, mentally.
I am happy to have Katherine back…I hope she comes back strong and focused.
Landon. Never really understood her story line. SHe was into interior design; selling crap in a fake house and then the ROAM website. She turned sneaky and nasty.
Cameran. I used to like her. Not so much now. If I had a great hubby better to take care of him
than go on a show that makes her look awful as a person..Whitney: Never figured him out. He went to school in Paris . His french is bad . How did he get a German girlfriend and live in a neighboring country.. France and can’t speak german?
Patricia: Well…I will end it there.
Are Craig, Shep and Dani also refusing to film with her???
Please, they will all end up filming with her because Kathryn makes this show! The rest of them are just a bunch of catty, self-centered, entitled, poor etiquette having, nobody really give a you know what about snobs!
Omg if these people start with the “I don’t understand why y’all don’t like Landon” I just can’t. I mean, did you watch the show? Did you see the INTENSE hatred for her online? My level of disregard for Landon is so deep I don’t even feel sorry for her! She’s almost worse then Bethenny Frankel. Plus, Landon is a dumbass. I mean, MY GOD who doesn’t know how to blog in 2016!!? who goes to a TECH meeting with printouts!!!? Hahahaha She should be embarrassed but she’s too dumb to know what an idiot she is. And she’s mean, lying and manipulative fame-seeking jealous Fatal Attraction level crazy person. Yes I think she’s worse than BF because at least one respects BF and used to like her. Never liked Landon. Okay… omg I can’t take it. I hope this is a season about redemption for her.
Redemption for Kathryn that is!
Why doesn’t Bravo tell those bottom-dwelling bullies
that they have to film with Kathryn or be excised off the show — sorry
like the anal warts they are?
I just found your blog and I’m in deep love with it. lol on the carpet bagger description. Ha!! You write the best stuff! I love your opinions, your commentary, and your overall sense of humor. Bravo! (<–ha! I wasn't even trying for that, but leaving it.) Hilarious, well researched stuff. I'm impressed! So happy I found you! I was looking for stories on Kathryn resigning to Southern Charm (and yes, I do believe the show would be so boring without her.) Thank you! Givin' me LIFE!
Glad to have you Kelly! Things can get testy here from time to time so don’t be a shrinking violet! We tend to call each other out a lot!
It sounds FUN. Lovin’ this place!
Southern Charm is filming in Savannah and it is Dramaaaaaaaa central. I am very familiar with the staged drama the cast has created and it is going to be a hoot to see this play out on tv.
I don’t think it’s good for Katherine to film, especially with those vipers. Does she need the money? Maybe she wants the exposure and is hoping for a spinoff? In any rate, I wasn’t planning on watching this shit show, but I’ll watch now with Katherine. She’s the best part of the show.
