Southern Charm Alum Kathryn Dennis Sentenced to 30 Days for DUI in South Carolina

The penalty stems from a 2024 Goose Creek crash, with police citing bystander reports of alcohol odor, observed glossy eyes, and evidence found in her car.

Overview

  • Dennis, 34, was convicted and ordered to serve 30 days in the Berkeley County jail on Friday, more than a year after her arrest.
  • The case follows a three-vehicle collision on May 20, 2024 near US Highway 52 and Stephanie Drive in Goose Creek, South Carolina.
  • Officers said bystanders reported smelling alcohol and noted that Dennis had glossy eyes when she approached them at the scene.
  • Police documented an unopened mini-Fireball bottle on the driver’s-side floorboard and an empty pink tumbler inside her vehicle.
  • At the detention center, Dennis later acknowledged drinking earlier in the day, and dashcam video described in reports shows her upset and disputing the arrest.
