On Monday, he was ordered by a judge in South Carolina to stand trial for the alleged assault of his children's nanny.

And on Thursday, Southern Charm star Thomas Ravenel, 56, responded to his ex Kathryn Dennis' filing seeking to modify their shared custody agreement.

Response: Southern Charm star Thomas Ravenel, 56, slammed his ex Kathryn Dennis for seeking to gain primary custody of their two young children following his arrest for assault

The former couple share two young children - daughter Kensie, four, and son Saint, two.

Dennis spent two years proving she was drug free in order to regain joint custody of her children.

She filed for primary custody of the kids following Ravenel's arrest for assault claiming he had displayed 'periods of impulsive and uncontrollable bouts of anger' as well as 'extreme narcissism and anger management problems.'

She also alleged he mixed alcohol and prescription drugs and was 'impaired' while in charge of the children.

Ravenel, according to People, denies all her accusations and alleges in response in his court documents that Dennis is acting 'in bad faith' and to progress 'her storyline as the 'rehabilitated mother who regains possession of her minor children.''

Ravenel was arrested in September after his former nanny Dawn Ledwell claimed she was in his Charleston, South Carolina home in January 2015 when he allegedly took off her pants and fondled her.

Judge Stepehn Harris ordered Ravenel to stand trial during a preliminary hearing in Charleston after deciding there was enough probable cause to move the case forward, according to a report by Us Weekly.

A Charleston police detective testified at the preliminary hearing that photos showed scratches on the nanny's body.

An affidavit obtained by DailyMail.com detailed the accusations against Ravenel.

'While inside the location, the defendant undressed and made sexual advances on the victim,' the affidavit said.

'The defendant grabbed the victim's hand and placed it on his penis before attempting to [remove] the victim's clothing. While attempting to remove the victim's clothing, the victim's underwire bra cut into her skin and her shirt wrapped around her neck, which caused the victim to struggle to breathe.'

The affidavit said the victim 'crouched down to the ground to try and prevent further assault' before Ravenel 'allegedly put his penis in her face'.

Ravenel faces up to three years in prison, if convicted.

Bravo shortly after Ravenel's arrest announced that the original primary cast member would no longer appear on Southern Charm.
