Southern Charm star Kathryn Dennis has been arrested for driving under the influence after being involved in a three-car collision, according to a new report.
TMZ notes that this is Dennis’ first violation for driving under the influence.
In October 2023, Kathryn’s registered 2022 Ford SUV was reported to have been involved in a hit-and-run collision.
A “well-informed source” confirmed to People that Dennis was “involved” in the accident outside Whitesville Elementary School in Moncks Corner.
School Resource Officer Michelle Ward, who was directing traffic at the time, confirmed she was a victim of the hit-and-run by reposting the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office crash report on her Facebook account.
In the comments, Ward told her followers that she felt “sore, but okay” after the SUV “hurt my hand” and noted that “a parent took a photo of the tag (license plate).”
‘(That) wasn’t part of my plan for the day,’ Michelle responded to another follower.
“I was a little angry too.”
Ward had reported to Berkeley County dispatch that the vehicle “failed to stop” after hitting her just before 7:18 a.m., and that she was “transported to an area hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.”

Dennis left Southern Charm after eight seasons last year.
She shares two children with fellow Southern Charm vet Thomas Ravenel: his son St. Julien Rembert, eight years old, and his daughter Kensington Calhoun, 10 years old.
Dennis has previously struggled with substance abuse and reportedly lost custody of his two children last year after “failing multiple drug tests,” a source said. Sun. His ex was granted full custody.
Kathryn and Thomas’ tumultuous six-year on-again, off-again relationship ended in 2018 amid allegations of sexual assault by three women.
Ravanel famously resigned as South Carolina State Treasurer after pleading guilty to “conspiring to purchase and distribute less than 100 grams of cocaine” in 2007.
In January 2023, Dennis confirmed that he would be leaving his job on Southern Charm after eight seasons and a demotion to ‘guest star’.
She shares two children with fellow Southern Charm veterinarian Thomas Ravenel: son St. Julien Rembert, eight, and daughter Kensington Calhoun, nine.
What a wild ride it has been! Can you believe I was 21 when I started filming Southern Charm, its first season? That was in 2013, and in the decade that followed, I can safely say that my life has changed in ways I could never imagine,” the former teen model told People in a statement.
‘You all watched me grow up, become a mother to two amazing children, and build friendships that I will always treasure. And through it all, the love that you all have shown me not only gave me the strength I needed to face it all, but also helped me realize that I was not alone. I am very grateful.
‘I will carry that love with me as I enter this next chapter of my life, away from the lens of Southern Charm. I’m grateful for everything to Bravo, Haymaker’s producers, and my Charleston castmates. And I’m excited for whatever comes next. If it’s anything like the last decade, it will be a memorable trip. LFG (come on, fuck).’
