Kathryn Dennis and Thomas Ravenel Update

March 24, 2017 by tamaratattles 47 Comments

Birthday Girl Photo: Instagram Why is she standing on the drainage rocks?

Today is Kensie’s third birthday. Am I the only non-parent who feels old when other people’s kids grow up? Has it really been three years since she was born? Time seems to pass so quickly, and it’s been about six weeks since Thomas took the babies to California.  Just before Thomas and the babies left he was bragging about his “full custody.”  While some sources close to Kathryn denied this, what my sources said was happening seems to be playing out. The last time Kathryn saw her kids appears to be the visitation weekend of February 4th.  On February 6th, Thomas took the babies to California for the desert polo season. He’s been there ever since.

I’m told that Kathryn has not been allowed to go to doctor visits with the kids when they were in Charleston because they did not fall on her weekend. Kathryn didn’t seem to know that the kids were going to be unavailable for her scheduled weekends for the past six weeks. The short version of the story is that Thomas is playing dirty pool.

Big sister Photo: Instagram

On his Instagram he posts tons of photos of the kids and their activities. The kids seem really happy out there. It reminds me of when Brandi Glanville would lose her mind when Leann would post photos of Eddie’s weekends with the boys and talk about how much fun she was having with “her boys,”

Last night shortly after midnight as Kensie’s birthday began, Kathryn posts a photo of herself holding a naked  Kensie when she was around one with a message about how much she loves her. Thomas posted the top photos of Kensie today with a caption about looking forward to celebrating with cake tonight. Yesterday he posted a photo of Saint saying he was looking forward to his baptism. It felt to me like Kathryn would not be invited.

Thomas is attempting to look like the doting father on Instagram; however, his intent is evil. He’s deliberately torturing Kathryn, perhaps even attempting to cause a relapse. That is pretty sick and sad.

I hope Kensie enjoys her birthday and gets to call her mama.

Update. I just could not resist adding this adorable photo of her birthday.

    My heart breaks for these beautiful children! Thomas is clearly using them as pawns to get to Katherine. As much as I love Katherine, I really feel like being on the television show is bad for her mental health. My fear is that she will get a bad edit that paints her in a poor light and it will be used against in future court proceedings.

    Kids want their parents, until they are old enough to comprehend big things.
    At this point they are missing their momma, Thomas is showing who he really is by behaving this way. Jerk at the highest level.

    This is truly heartbreaking. I still maintain, as those two lovely children grow up, they will realize how horrible their father is and how horribly he treated their mother. It will come back to bite him in the ass. I sure wish I had more money than him cause I’d be sending it to Kathryn to try to level the playing field. Someone influential needs to assist her pro bono. And no court appointed attorney either, no offense, but she needs a team on par with his. I hope his dick rots off.

    The way that TRav has treated Kathryn – is horrible. I am surprised her attorney did not cite his treatment of her as a form of mental torture. Then to separate her from her children — is to break a mother’s heart. Kathryn stand strong. I pray that Kathryn meets truly supportive people and a wonderful man who genuinely loves her and wins back custody of her children. They do not belong in the full custody of this perpetual playboy. That is ridic. There is a God who sees all. Kathryn must work to get her children back as soon as possible so that she has a relationship with them.

    WHAT a complete Douche Lord.
    Here’s the thing: he’s a narcissist. Truth. Because he can only care about himself (or outwardly care for others, like children, because he gets the societal ramifications against his own self) he will manipulate and use the system (here, instagram) to prove he is the aggrieved one. Cruel and wrong. I have a cousin, about his age, young children, and a washed up political career. Same thing with his world.
    THERE SHOULD BE A LAW that all D rated actors with mental issues be prevented from posting ANY images of their children. I realize we would never see Guidice, Manzo, offspring and the like, but wouldn’t the children be better for it?

    Thomas you will be hated by your children for keeping them from their momma. All Kathryn wanted was for you all to be a family together and raise those babies, she kept you involved thru pregnancies, the births, and every day life w/ Kensie and then Saint until you both went thru some issues. But Kathryn was always with those babies day in and day out. You are a cruel & have done the worst thing you could do to a Mother, Take her children from her. You have broken that women’s heart. #Unforgiveable

    Thomas put that same picture on twitter and asked “I wonder what she’s thinking?” Does he want everyone to lose their shit on him? Does he enjoy it? I had to put my tiny 2 cents in—>”She’s thinking “Why won’t Daddy let Mommy come to my birthday?” #KidsHurtTheMost I was trying to be kind and I’m sure I will get some backlash but I have got a couple of likes so far. Now I needed to come here to vent! I’ll start with this.. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I hate that man! I hate that he is using those beautiful children to hurt Kathryn, when it will also hurt them. How does this IDIOT not know that? I hate that he does not know that! I hate that no one will kick him the balls and tell him that he’s an IDIOT! I’m glad I don’t live near him!

    I speak from experience, my sisters and I went through this with my mum & Dad. Dad was rich and lorded it over my mother, took us to rich places, spoiled us & told us how my poor mother could never do this for us, among other bad things he would say about her. Suffice to say a mother’s love is stronger and we choose our mum and her lifestyle. We grew up poor but happy. He paid my mum next to nothing, if anything at all, no courts back then that made it happen like they do today. He was just like Thomas! The sad part of this is the laws have changed so our dear Kathryn may not win out as easy and those kids may not get the choice I did. At 8 yrs. old I stood in a court of law and said “I want to live with my mummy” It was sad! I only hope Kathryn stays strong and knows how much support she has from all her fans #TeamKathryn and those babies Always!

    I’m an avid Teen Mom fan and I never feel bad for the moms/dads who turn to drugs rather than getting their lives together for their kids. But with Kathryn, I have a deep sympathy for her situation. I think it comes from seeing her lambasted on a show where everyone (other than Craig) is 10+ years older than her. They tore her down nonstop long before she became pregnant. Thomas knew damn well that girl would buy the dream he was selling her. He used her for her womb and left her in the dust. Twice.

    I don’t know any 55yo men who post that many pics of their kids on social media–D-list or otherwise. It’s clearly to torture her. He’s a dick. If he wanted to be good-natured and show pics of the kids for her to see, he’d text them to her like a normal fucking human.

    I’m going through the divorce process for seven months now, my son just turned 13. When his father takes him away just for the day, I am at a loss and I miss him terribly but I know he will be returning soon. I can not begin to imagine the pain of not having your babies home with you-not knowing when they will return.
    I’m very close with my son and it’s hard to bite my tongue sometimes after his dad has done something horrible that will really affect my son and me but I’ve heard from the attorney, doctor and therapists that the worst thing a parent can do is talk badly of the other or keep the child away from the other parent for it will bite that parent in the ass some day. The kid becomes and adult and wonders why you kept me away from my mother or father.
    I hope she’s taking all her required classes and cooling it with the drinking. I’m sure she needs the paycheck but that show has not been kind to her. There’s a record of every instance of poor behavior for the judge to see and they do watch. The court system, at least here in NJ, heavily favors the father.

      It’s good to hear you are keeping it together, Pie. I remember when you first got wind of the divorce and it wasn’t pretty. Not surprised you are taking the high road for your son.

      Also, regarding your moderation, I have come to the conclusion that something about this site doesn’t like the apostrophe, as it seems to happen to the other couple of people with an apostrophe in their nick. We could test this by you trying to post a comment with everything the same excep tor the apostrophe. You would need to make two comments because the first one would be moderated due to the change. So it you and to try it, we’ll know. Or I can just keep putting them through. Whatever works for you.

    Thomas is a horrible man-child who’s never been told “no.” I can’t believe that someone got pregnant, twice, on a reality show, but here we are. She seems like a self-involved young woman, but who wasn’t at that age? I hope she gets her shit together because Thomas will never grow up. They do make some beautiful children.

      You’re absolutely correct, however her age dictated her behavior. He played her to get what he wanted. If there was even one shred of decency in that man, none of this would have played out like it has. If she had/has issues, as the mother of his two children he should be doing all he can in support of her if for no one else BUT his children. I fear she doesn’t have the proper support system nor the funds to go toe to toe with him. And that was his ace in the hole and he knew it. What he did to her was both cold as well as calculated. I pray someone steps in to help her, someone who doesn’t care about TRav nor his so called social status. I wanna puke every time I go over that bridge named for his family. They are all puke worthy.

      “Kathryn started this” ? what the heck! She reacted poorly, made a mistake. Young, two young children by a man who gaslit her, lied to her, belittled her. Can you imagine a young woman – any young woman – early twenties who would NOT have reacted very similar and with hormonal emotions In the same situation? No wonder she cracked a bit. But to say it’s ok for a grown man, an ADULT man (or should be, pffft) to say it is ok for HIM to take the kids from her is tit for tat, acceptable? These are children’s CHILDHOOD, not a game. Shame on you for that attitude. This is a mother and her children! How can you not feel empathy for her? She was on drugs. Well all know that. I want nothing more than to to see her rise above and be healthy. Don’t you? If she’s not? If the rumors are true she still is using? Well? I hate to say it, but I wouldn’t allow it around my kids either. Drugs! Ugh. Truly destroys lives.

    I’ve never been the biggest Kathryn fan, (I know she’s young) but what Thomas is doing is SO wrong, and I hope that the court of public opinion crucifies him SOON. I’m always surprised when he posts the pictures of the kids- there always so many females saying, “Aw, you’re such a good dad!” I’m not sure if they just don’t understand context clues or what. It’s obvious that he’s keeping the kids away from their mother and no child should be taken from a parent like that. It’s horrible when a mother takes kids away from their father (out of spite or to piss the other person off) and horrible if a father takes kids away from their mother.

    Anyway, I really think/hope Thomas will change IF the public turns on him. He’s so afraid of his image and right now he’s wanting everyone to think he’s the Dad of the Year. HE ISN’T. People need to start posing on these pictures. He cares more about his public image than he does about those kids. He needs to realize that what he’s doing isn’t okay. No matter how you feel about the other parent, they’re STILL the OTHER parent. Kathryn has made mistakes, but she hasn’t done anything to have her children taken away from her and moved, literally, to the other side of the country. I can’t believe the judge even approved Thomas taking them for “Polo Season”- whatever that is. It’s sick.

      The judge disagrees with you, and Thomas has full custody. Thomas says that she is not passing her drug tests.

      I don’t disagree with you, I’m just stating the facts.

        You’re right- I worded that wrong… yes, legally she did something to deserve full custody being taken away from her, but as far as I know, the judge didn’t say that she isn’t allowed to have any contact with her children. Thomas did that. It sounds like she still had weekends, so she was even allowed to be left alone with her kids. That’s why it seems weird to me that a judge would sign off on him moving across the country with the kids- even if just temporarily.

        I don’t know a lot about Polo, but I get the feeling it’s something that Thomas signed up to do. He isn’t going to get behind on paying bills if he didn’t move to California “for Polo Season,” so the whole thing just seems really weird to me. He sure is rubbing it in her face though- he knows exactly what he’s doing with his sick posts about birthdays and baptisms.

        I hope Kathryn can do whatever she has to do to gain back custody of those poor kids. She’s young and has made mistakes and maybe doesn’t have the best coping skills, but Thomas is a jerk and is using those kids as pawns in his sick game. He’s a terrible person on many levels.

          She has them every other weekend or two weekends a month I forget which.

          The longer Thomas regains full custody the less likely it is that the primary custody would ever change.

          It’s a sad situation all around. The only silver lining is the nannies that Thomas hired go with the babies when they are with Kathryn. Wherever the babies are, the nannies are there, so there is at least one thread of continuity for them, and they appear, at least in the photos to be happy.

            They do, for now. But someday that little girl is going to grow up and see this show. She will see how her Father treated her Mother. The seed of resentment will sprout and grow. Thomas is going to lose these kids – I mean lose the devotion and unwavering love. Kathryn is their Mother. They will react poorly to this. Unforgiveable. Kathryn clearly adores her kids and the way ThomAs has treated her? Lied to her? Cheated on her? Gas lit her? A 50+ Year old man, a player, took advantage of a beautiful young woman and broke her heart. Humiliated her and allowed others to as well and sat back and allowed her to be destroyed. Kids will see that, and no matter WHAT? They will seethe at this and Thomas will pay the ultimate price of his children looking at him. No more adoration in their eyes, but disgust, hurt and betrayal. A mothers love is that perfect pearl in life. To hold that from a child is abuse, an emotional abuse of the most vile it is unforgivable. I pray Kathryn is ok. Then she needs to get with an image consultant and a PR person whom she can trust not to cheapen her ala Kardashian. Kathryn should finish school and get involved in Politics. She is charming and smart. Well read and could get involved in promotion of Politcal figures. I really feel this girl, if she focused and out her passion into Herself would soar. She is lucky Thomas has the means to support their children, she should prove that she to is a force. And she is. But she needs to step away from the nonsense and take care of her. She could be magnificent, her looks will garner attention and to speak out on children’s causes, or drugs and rehab? She’s be great. She is beautiful and honest and flawed as we all are. She doesn’t hide it. To learn to rein the passion in and focus on growth as a woman is what I am hoping to see of her. Stay away from BS loser men and decide on her standards and worth for heralded and demand nothing less of her man – and one worthy of the same. With her looks? By about mid 30’s she could have a good man. But take a step back and get you life in focus Kathryn. You’ve a lot people who want to see you rise above. Class and sass. Go for it.

        Thomas has full custody, how did I miss this? I remember reading he had soemthing temporary. clearly real life is getting in the way of my reality and gossip following. I must re-evaluate.
        I have a soft spot for Katherine also. She really got played by Thomas. Hopefully she can continue down a healthy path and regain custody.
        Her littles are adorable and I love the photos TT.
        Can’t wait for this show to come back, though I hope it has enough KD to keep me interested and a lot less Layton. Crap, is that her name? I detest her to the point I’ve shut out her name from my memory.

      I agree with you Seth but I believe what is making most people upset is the fact that Thomas basically drove Kathryn to the brink. He made all kinds of promises to a young naive girl, broke every one & bashed her along with the rest of the cast. She then went down the wrong path but has since been to rehab, now he shoves it in her face that he has custody and she doesn’t. He still bashes her & her attempts at recovery instead of helping the MOTHER of his children. He is an ASS! and unfortunately we can see on social media, it doesn’t look like this arrogant egotistical asshole is going to change any time soon. He most likely has major connections, a lot of money & is very powerful in Charleston our dear Kathryn is a small fish is a very large Ravanel pond. So it seems like Thomas will make this very difficult for her. I also have hope that they can both come to an agreement that is best for those beautiful little babies.

        She knew what she was doing going after Trav. She has the name but little money behind it. That’s what happens when you gold dig. It comes to bite you in the a**.

Kathryn please learn about narcissistic personality disorder ( after narcissistic abuse there is light ) is a site that will educate and inform on the monster you are dealing with. Ladies, know the signs …protect yourselves and each other and do not reproduce with these evil beings. HE displays all behaviors and is the true criminal.

    I don’t get why everyone should feel sorry for Kathryn? She jepordizes her kids health and safety . She was tested positive of how many drugs in her system? She seems to be doing better season 5 of southern charm . But my conclusion is that both parents are unfit . Thomas tries but really he is a mess too.He loves the kids as much a screwed up person can. Everyone on the show is a narcissist .
    But can’t turn away from the circus.
