‘Unhealthy For My Children!’ #SouthernCharm Thomas Ravenel Broke Up With Kathryn Dennis Because She Was Bad For His Kids!

Southern Charm‘s most eligible bachelor, Thomas Ravenel, is currently looking for love!

The former South Carolina State Treasurer has been unlucky in love and despite his best efforts, he hasn’t found a woman that treats him the way he deserves to be treated.

“I want a woman who feels privileged to be with me because they know me and they know my character and they know that I tell the truth and I’m honest,” Ravenel tells People. “In this quest, given my checkered past, I think it’s going to take a special woman who’s going to be able to accept that…I think I deserve no less.”

Thomas admits the break up with the mother of his two kids, Kathryn Dennis, was driven by dysfunction in the relationship — and he chose to put his, “children first.” 

“I might have hung in there,” he admitted. “We had some good times, but there was also so much negativity that was very unhealthy for the children. We had to put the children first.”

The real estate developer blames problematic dynamics early on in their courtship for the relationship failing. 

“The problem there was, with Kathryn — it’s like a friend of mine in the Hamptons said, ‘Hey, you’ve known the girl three months and a day, and she’s been pregnant three months,’” he explained. “I didn’t really get a chance to know her. It was too late, she was already pregnant.”

“I know now that I’m not going to get anyone pregnant, probably ever — unless they want to!” 

As reported, court documents confirm Kathryn‘s recent failed drug test — granting Ravenel sole custody of their two kids, Kensington, 3, and Saint, 18 months.  

Now that Thomas has been tossed back into the dating pool, he realizes that doing the same thing over and over with no success, will not bring him any closer to finding love. 

“In one case, I was actually talking to a girl who was one-third my age. She was 18!” he said of his dating life. “I was like, ‘this is ridiculous. … Oh my God, I can’t do this now.’ She was one-third my age!”

The reality star is preparing himself for the right person to come along. 

“I need to constantly put myself in a position to meet the right kind of woman,” he added. “And it’s not going to be hanging out receiving bottle service at [a club].”

To increase his odds, Thomas is leaning on co-star, Patricia Altschul, to help him find his future wife. Altschul is a classy southern belle with an impressive rolodex of noble women with good pedigree.

“I’ve been up and down the eastern seaboard, now I’m going up and down the western seaboard,” he said. “I’ve been playing polo in the desert of Indio, which is next to Palm Springs. Next I’m going to Santa Barbara, and Patricia’s going to introduce me to some woman who went to Harvard. She said, ‘She’s 35,’ and then followed up with the question, ‘Is that too old for you?’ I’m like, ‘No!’”

Watch Thomas navigate his dating life and custody perils on Southern Charm, Monday nights at 9:00 p.m. ET on Bravo.
