If anyone thought time might eventually heal the rift between Karen Jarrett and Dixie Carter, Karen just made it crystal clear that’s never happening.
Speaking on the July 15 edition of My World, Karen was asked a simple question from a fan: if Dixie Carter wanted to reconcile, would she be willing to put the past behind them? Her answer came without even a moment’s hesitation.
Fan: “Would you reconcile with Dixie if she wanted to?”
Karen Jarrett: “No.”
When Conrad Thompson jokingly suggested she’d eventually come around, Karen immediately shut that idea down too.
“No, I wouldn’t. Not now. Not now. I’m so mad at myself, Conrad, for even entertaining a conversation with her at Hawk’s funeral. After finding out the things that I found out through this… The company wasn’t in bad shape that Jeff had to be taken out of control.”
Karen explained that briefly speaking with Carter at Hawk’s funeral is now something she regrets. According to her, learning more about what happened behind the scenes surrounding Jeff Jarrett’s departure from TNA only made those feelings stronger, not weaker. Even the idea of an apology isn’t enough anymore.
Karen said Carter has never apologized directly to Jeff Jarrett or accepted responsibility for what happened, and because of that, she doesn’t see any path toward repairing the relationship.
“No, she could apologize, which she never has to him. She’s never owned her s*** to him. I want nothing to do with that woman, and I will go to my grave feeling the way I do about her.”
The latest comments come just days after Karen unloaded on Carter during an earlier episode of My World, where she admitted she still carries “rage and hate” toward the former TNA president. During that conversation, she accused Carter of trying to destroy Jeff Jarrett’s career after he lost control of TNA, claimed people lost their jobs simply because they were associated with him, and even called Carter a “vain, evil woman.”
She also argued that Jeff Jarrett and Vince Russo spent years protecting Carter from her own decisions behind the scenes, before delivering perhaps her harshest assessment yet by calling Carter’s overall legacy in wrestling “a thousand percent a net f**ing negative.”
With her latest comments, Karen has left no room for interpretation. Whatever happened between the Jarretts and Dixie Carter behind closed doors remains deeply personal to her, and she says nothing—including an apology—would change how she feels.
