REALITY TV RESTAURANT DISPUTE SPILLS INTO CHARLESTON COURTROOM

Dawn Price – the victim in a recent criminal domestic violence incident involving reality television producer Bryan Kestner – has filed a lawsuit against her abuser, alleging he cheated her out of tens of thousands of dollars.

The suit also alleges Kestner, a producer on Bravo TV’s Southern Charm reality television show, has no ownership stake in the Charleston, S.C. restaurant he’s been touting as his own.

Price’s lawsuit (.pdf here) was filed in Charleston County on October 30.

In the suit, Price alleges Kestner promised to give her ten percent of his earnings from the proposed restaurant – called “Generalissimo” – as well as an additional $55,000.  The first $15,000 of that total was supposed to be paid to Price no later than August 1, 2015.

According to Price, it wasn’t.

The ownership stake (and cash) was intended to repay Price after she allegedly fronted all of Kestner’s “personal, living and travel expenses” over the course of their four-year relationship.

When the relationship ended earlier this year, Price says she discovered Kestner had absolutely no ownership interest in the restaurant.

A source close to Kestner told FITS his attorneys were preparing a response to Price’s filing – which would be provided to us at the “appropriate time.”

The source added that Price’s allegations “lack merit” and that the blond bombshell was simply trying to “get more screen time” on the show.

Price appeared at a recent domestic violence fundraiser sponsored by Southern Charm star Kathryn Dennis – an event at which Bravo TV cameras were present.

As FITS reported exclusively back in July, Bravo TV will air a third season of Southern Charm in 2016.  The show stars 53-year-old Lowcountry playboy Thomas Ravenel – a former statewide official who lost his job and went to prison after a 2007 cocaine bust.  Also on the program?  Dennis – his 24-year-old baby momma and the scion of two of the Palmetto State’s most famous families.

I sure as hell don’t say “all of the sudden.” I don’t believe it has even dawned on you yet that this is incorrect grammar. My own grammatical warpages are usually intentional, for comic effect.

With you, the comic effects are not intentional. But when they come from a self-proclaimed genius such as yourself, they are far more hilarious than anything I could come up with.

It’s just over your head, or above your ability to understand. Personally, it’s a bit of a curse to intellectually superior (although I’m grateful to be.) But I think – except to the totally vapid- it sinks in at some level, even if not right away.

I admit it’s not presented on a level as low as the DNC’s marching orders, but stick with it, you may eventually get something from it.

I’m assuming that her lawyer knows that in SC that if you have no money to collect, and someone sues you and wins, its the equivalent of saying “you win”, and that’s about it?

Maybe they can parlay this into an ownership interest? Either because another owner acknowledged him as an owner, had reason to know he was doing so and didn’t take reasonable action to stop it, or he may have even actually been an owner and then fraudulently transferred/disclaimed his interest. Or maybe she just wants to embarrass him. Or maybe it’s just part of the damn script. Strange times.

Squishy, you are exactly correct. They keep calling or knocking on my door. Although I did have one (someone out there knows who I’m talking about) who wasn’t crazy but a fine piece of womanhood. She liked to go out drinking almost every night (in the St. Andrews area) and get to my house about 3:20 am . Then we would have sex until about 5:30 am until she would go home. Lucky me I controlled my own hours, so I learned to go to sleep early in the evening to await her knock. Then I’m up at 8:30 am. One weekend though we screwed 10 times each day. I asked my doctor if this would be bad for me health wise. He told me to introduce him to her when we split up!. They can learn your schedule and locations for business appointments and will show up there sometimes which is totally annoying and embarrassing because how the hell do you explain them to a business client (although this particular woman never did)?

Maybe few care about the specifics of this bit of “scandal” from the world of “reality TV”, but the fact is that the number of supposedly legit journalistic publication and site that do cover such stories to some degree now outnumbers those that do not.

Wow how the narrative has morphed – let me help you out:

The show stars the 53 year old perpetual manchild and Lowcountry “playboy” Thomas “T-Rav” Ravenel – the former elected state treasurer wide official who lost his job was forced to step down in disgrace after being charged with and later convicted for dealing cocaine and went to prison after a. In 2007 he served a slap on the wrist sentence for his cocaine bust. T-Rav is a well known male whore, baby daddy and narcissist who believed that he could overcome his drug dealing, misogynistic, illegitimate child fathering reputation to get elected Senator finishing with a whopping 3.9% of the vote despite strong support from his one sided bromance addled former friend and serial stalker Will Folks.
