In a scathing public accusation that’s sure to reignite Southern Charm’s most volatile custody battle, Thomas Ravenel is calling out Kathryn Dennis for what he describes as the ultimate betrayal — walking away from their kids without warning, explanation, or remorse.
“She Vanished — And Didn’t Look Back”
“She ghosted her own children,” Thomas said bluntly. “I wish I didn’t have to say that, but the truth is the truth. Eleven weeks. No calls. No visits. Nothing. Just… gone.”
The former couple’s on-again, off-again war over custody has long been one of the show’s most heartbreaking storylines — but Thomas’s latest claims mark a chilling new chapter. According to him, Kathryn simply disappeared from her children’s lives earlier this year, leaving their son and daughter to repeatedly ask, “Where’s Mommy?”
A Familiar Pattern, or a Cry for Help?
Sources close to Kathryn say she hasn’t abandoned her kids — she’s simply “been going through a really dark time” and didn’t feel capable of being present. “It wasn’t about not loving her children,” one insider shared. “It was about trying to survive day to day.”
But Thomas isn’t buying it. “This isn’t the first time,” he said. “I’ve watched her spiral. I’ve tried to help. But at some point, you stop making excuses for someone who keeps choosing herself over her kids.”
Pain, Publicly Played Out
Fans of Southern Charm have seen Kathryn struggle — with sobriety, mental health, and heartbreak. But this latest episode, as described by Thomas, paints a picture of profound neglect.
“Don’t tell me this is just a rough patch,” he added. “We all go through hard times. But being a parent means showing up — especially when it’s hard.”
No Apologies. No Resolution.
Kathryn has yet to directly address Thomas’s claims. On social media, she’s posted sporadically — sometimes smiling, sometimes cryptic, but never mentioning the children.
As for Thomas, he says he’s focused on protecting their kids. “I don’t care about being the villain or the hero,” he said. “I care about Kensie and Saint. And right now, they’re asking questions I shouldn’t have to answer alone.”
The silence from Kathryn is deafening — and in the court of public opinion, it’s only growing louder.
