Former Reality Star Serves Jail Time for DUI Conviction
17 Oct
Summary
- Kathryn Dennis served 11-day jail sentence for DUI conviction
- Jail meals included spaghetti, grits, and baked chicken
- Dennis tried to get her 30-day sentence reduced

In October 2025, former reality TV star Kathryn Dennis was forced to put her lavish lifestyle on hold as she served an 11-day jail sentence following a DUI conviction. Dennis, 34, began her sentence on October 3 at the Berkeley County Hill-Finklea Detention Center in South Carolina.
During her incarceration, Dennis had access to a variety of meal options, including spaghetti with meat sauce, baked chicken with gravy, and mac and cheese. She also had the option to purchase snacks from the facility's commissary, such as hot summer sausage, Takis, and Cheez-Its. For her sweet tooth, Dennis could indulge in treats like chocolate cupcakes and Jolly Ranchers.
Despite her 30-day sentence, Dennis tried to get her jail time reduced. Court documents revealed that she argued for reconsideration, citing a number of reasons. However, she was ultimately released on October 14, just 11 days into her sentence.
The DUI conviction stemmed from a May 2024 car crash that involved three vehicles. Responding officers noted that Dennis had "glossy eyes and an odor of alcohol" and found several miniature Fireball bottles in her vehicle. She was sued by one of the alleged crash victims, who claimed to have suffered "serious" injuries due to her alleged negligence.
