Fans call out Kathryn Dennis for ruining her relationship with Chleb Ravenell
When he left the house, Chleb Ravenell called his mother while driving and narrated the entire ordeal to her. However, his mother supported Kathryn Dennis and requested her son to understand her side of the story. She even said she would call Dennis and talk to her to calm her down.
Dennis and Ravenell’s fight was shown as a flashback while he was telling his mother about it.
The couple's argument started after Ravenell asked Dennis about her birthday debacle. In response, she stated that she was triggered by his efforts to mend things between her and Venita Aspen.
Dennis felt that her boyfriend was taking Aspen’s side. This accusation led Ravenell to point out that Dennis doesn’t like most people in Charleston. He proceeded to say that she was the problem, not the others. At this point, Dennis asked him to leave.
Viewers were furious at Dennis as they found Ravenell to be a good man. They felt that she was ruining a good thing in her life. Here's a look at some of the fan reactions on Twitter:
