ProudMary June 1, 2017 Share June 1, 2017 I'll just leave this here. T-Rav sat down for an interview with Charleston local, Quinton Washington. Full disclosure: I gave up 11 minutes into the interview. Couldn't take much more of Thomas's disjointed ravings. If anyone makes it through and he says anything interesting, please let the rest of us know! http://www.holycitysinner.com/2017/05/30/quintins-close-ups-thomas-ravenel-2/ 1 Link to comment
Major Bigtime June 2, 2017 Share June 2, 2017 After being given her children for the weekend, by Thomas (who didn't have to do that), she ditches them with her mother so she can go out partying. Maybe jail is the wakeup call that will shake her into sensibility. http://starcasm.net/archives/370778 1 Link to comment

I get she wants to see her kids and she is being very dramatic about her path. It is creepy she believes she knows what goes inside of Thomas' home. I only hope her alleged sources aren't anyone connected with the show. I don't blame Thomas for being angry and I just would hope these two can get out of the justice system come up with a workable plan-Kathryn having visitation with her parents present every other weekend and Wednesday for one year. One would hope, short of a work conflict she can spend 72 hours with her children without going out or needing a nanny. I have no idea the distance between her parents home and Thomas' but it would seem this is doable. It seems to me they are two months away from filming and Kathryn needs to make some choices about her future. This season is bad for Kathryn because she can't attend normal events and so there are these carefully orchestrated scenes with Kathryn. Lather, rinse and repeat when it comes to this woman. I may have goofed but HE is far worse. No HE has provided the children with a stable home for the past year while she was allowed to get her stuff together. Thomas has fulfilled his parental obligations. No more no less, Kathryn, not so much. 1 Link to comment

Moncks Corner is a good distance from Charleston. Kathryn has been given every opportunity, more than most addicts. To think she had her children for a weekend and STILL preferred to go party with friends. Why??? 4 Link to comment

Nancypants June 2, 2017 Share June 2, 2017 They were a means to an end, she did not get the ending she wanted, so now the children are useless to her. I can't believe I'm saying that, because I'm usually a huge Kathryn supporter, but I just got a call a spade a spade 7 Link to comment
scrb June 2, 2017 Share June 2, 2017 Well she didn't ever expect to have to raise the children, it was probably going to be nannies while she spent Thomas' money. 2 Link to comment

I remember Andy asking them if they were going to hook up and they both looked at each other. She was still a little on the heavy side from having Kensie, and I also couldn't believe they'd be so careless. Wonder how Saint is doing - he seems fine on the show but there was talk of health issues due to Kathryn's drinking/drug use when pregnant. Link to comment

snarts June 4, 2017 Share June 4, 2017 Y'all consider that maybe Kathryn spent the entire weekend with her kids and went out while they were sleeping? Maybe she went out to dinner and her parents enjoyed spending time with their grandchildren. I get that she's had issues but the constant mom shaming that occurs when moms are out & about socially is ridiculous. Do we hold dads to the same standard? I certainly don't see it. Thomas goes out trolling the Charleston bars and leaves the kids with the nanny while the cameras are rolling. I've never seen him shamed for it. 3 Link to comment

A normal mom without her drug and court issues would not get this scrutiny. She complains about not seeing her kids but then in the short time she has them she goes out. Fair or not she has a hard road ahead of her and if she cannot put her social life aside for one or two nights that she has the kids, whether or not they are asleep, it shows she has not made the necessary progress. She is the cause of her own problems. 15 Link to comment

But in most large cities it would be a suburb. 45 minutes to 1hr 15 to driver about 30 miles depending on day of week and traffic. Thomas' house is actually about 1 mile south of the crosstown (ie- the end of interstate 26.) The easiest route is to skirt the peninsula and come down Lockwood and turn left onto his street- only about 5-6 blocks of surface streets, involved. I work about 1/2 to 3/4 mile from Thomas' house and have one coworker who comes in from Moncks Corner daily. I know two people who have done daily reverse commutes from Charleston to Moncks Corner for jobs with Berkeley County Government. Say what you will, I'm sure she's driven that far to get to a party or bar. If a man couldn't make that distance to participate in his children's lives he would be justly excoriated. I've had friends who had to travel 2 hours each way to visit pick/up kids due to one parent moving. And they did it. Heck one friend's ex used to meet him half way because she thought it was important. I'm usually a bleeding heart but Kathryn has hit the point she needs a strong hand and no room to bullsh** her way through situations of her own making. 6 Link to comment

SunnyBeBe June 5, 2017 Share June 5, 2017 One thing that really bothers me is that even if a parent is not providing daily care of the children, the kids still suffer as they grow up. From what I have read, children feel the need to try to help the ailing parent and to make them happy. They desperately want their parents to be happy, healthy and functional. Growing up seeing your mom so dysfunctional, unreliable, unhappy, etc. Man.....I can't imagine. 3 Link to comment

I turned on Bravo today and again saw her lunch with Jennifer and she could not be any less interested in Jennifer's baby who was born with a defect. And she really didn't care that she came across that way. I know she doesn't like Jennifer but, my God, that woman is just horribly mean. That poor baby is innocent. 3 Link to comment

I was in the hospital for about a week when my son was 3...he is now 7 and to this day if sees me tired or not feeling well, he says are you ok?... No hospital mommy, you're ok mommy? Kids are affected by the parents. It breaks my heart that he still remembers me so ill that I could barely stay awake, so yes kids want to help parents. I can't imagine my son trying to help me from a day of drugging and drinking. Kids shouldn't be exposed to that. Edited June 5, 2017 by imjagain 5 Link to comment

I suppose Thomas and Kathryn are splitting the water. lol I'm afraid that seeing a photo of them all smiles doesn't cause me to believe anything different about them. They are toxic together and from what I read, better off if they have no direct communication. Trust has to be earned.

There is nothing madeup about the story of Kathryn leaving her kids with her mom so she can go out and party. Look for an Instagram of her and some friends, drunk in the back of a car. That was the weekend. Link to comment
scrb June 6, 2017 Share June 6, 2017 Is that Sermets, which JD changed the name to Gentry? Guess Bravo felt they gave him too much free advertising for his vodka so they haven't filmed in his restaurants at all this season. Or maybe he was demanding more money to film at his places? This season they've gone to more scenic places, like the lunch place overlooking the water last week or the rooftop bar where Landon and Jennifer met. 1 Link to comment

Yep, that's the old Sermet's, which JD recently "rebranded" to its current name/vibe. Maybe he wanted to cash in on the Gentry's name and have all his ventures share that same title, but I don't think it was a good move on his part. Sermet's was a lovely place that had been a respected local eatery/jazz joint for a good while; I even visited there several times before the show started and loved the ambiance and bar bites---I had a fave bartender there who made me one of the most amazing dirty vodka martinis. Wish I'd known to look out for JD around there back in the day! 2 Link to comment
Major Bigtime June 6, 2017 Share June 6, 2017 I liked Sermet's, the food and atmosphere was great. This new configuration is not as popular. Hence the money issues, I do believe he was asking for more money for them to film there. Which was dumb, he's not getting people in any other way. From reviews of Gentry, they have rude bartenders and the bourbon sucks. 2 Link to comment
scrb June 6, 2017 Share June 6, 2017 Yeah I see the Yelp reviews are poor. Looks like they have a review on Zagat but I don't subscribe so I don't know what the rating is. There's also a Gentry Hotel as well. Maybe that's doing better for him. 1 Link to comment

Nancypants June 30, 2017 Share June 30, 2017 (edited) Thomas' Drunktexts to Kathryn are super Ragey, hypocritical and designed to bait her. I wonder if the same judge he bought off during his Cake-cayn trial will be used in the custody hearing. 10 months in club fed( which Thomas finds excessive) for intent to distribute is NO kind of punishment. He didn't even serve the whole sentence. Anyone else would be getting muuuch longer in state prison. So, yes he will be buying the judge in the Custody case. Not because he gives a shit about the kids, its about Winning , you see. Honestly neither is a fit parent. Fucking assholes, both. Its hard to root for either parent.

Major Bigtime June 30, 2017 Share June 30, 2017 It won't be the same judge. This is family court, entirely different entity. And there is no proof anywhere that any judge has been bought off. If there was, it would be all over the tabloids. There's not even a hint of impropriety. Just Kathryn defying judge's orders and failing drug tests. When she shows up to take them. 3 Link to comment
