6. Losing a Pet Is Never Easy
As a loving cat mom, Dennings often shared photos of her kitty Millie. In October 2023, she announced Millie’s passing on Instagram, saying that it broke her heart and that losing her felt like losing a piece of her soul. For anyone who has lost a pet, the pain can be intense, and Dennings was devastated. Following the advice of a friend, she adopted two new kittens, Lentil and Barley, hoping they might help her heal. But sadly, our brains rarely forget. While the new kittens didn’t erase the pain, they did help bring new joy into Kat’s life.
7. The Death of Her Father
As if one death in the family wasn’t enough, Dennings faced another major loss shortly after Millie’s passing – the death of her father. The actress shared a heartfelt tribute to him on Instagram in January 2024, acknowledging what would have been his 95th birthday. Despite this tragedy, Dennings continued with plans to marry her boyfriend of nearly three years, Andrew W.K., a few weeks after her father’s passing. Although she considered postponing, Dennings decided to go ahead, believing that celebrating love was a way to honor her father’s memory.
