Kathryn Dennis celebrated one year of dating boyfriend Chleb Ravenell this weekend.
Though they were first linked in the summer of 2020, Dennis and Ravenell made their romance Instagram-official that October. Their partnership has since experienced a series of highs and lows.
In April, Dennis and Ravenell moved into a Charleston apartment following a custody dispute between Dennis and ex Thomas Ravenel over their two children, Kensie, 6, and Saint, 4.
Dennis leaned on Ravenell after temporarily losing custody of her kids.
On the latest season of “Southern Charm,” Dennis was forced to defend her relationship with Ravenell after co-star Leva Bonaparte accused her of using it to sidestep racism allegations.
In the spring of 2020, Dennis was embroiled in controversy after using a racially insensitive emoji while messaging Tamika Gadsen, a black radio DJ in Charleston. Gadsen said that Dennis sent her a monkey emoji after Gadsen spoke out against local organizers of a Donald Trump rally.
Dennis — who later apologized for her “offensive” message — told co-star Shep Rose why she kept her relationship with Ravenell under wraps at the time.
