Southern Charm fans remember Ravenel’s nanny Deidre and her daughter Paige Politelli who were in the news this summer as they were both mentioned in the custody agreement between Thomas Ravenel and Kathryn Dennis, the mama of his two children, Kensie and Saint.
As part of the agreement between Southern Charm stars Thomas Ravenel and Kathryn Dennis, as long as she continuously passed scheduled and random drug tests, Deidre Blair Politelli and her daughter Paige would no longer nanny or babysit for the two Ravenel children as of this past October. So after losing her nanny gig, Thomas Ravenel reportedly gave Politelli another job managing his country home on Edisto Island and serving as Airbnb host.
