Is Savannah Chrisley gay and is she still engaged? Thu 23 March 2023 13:33 Updated Wed 13 December 2023 07:46 Yasmine Leung

Savannah Chrisley has shared her relationship ups and downs on Chrisley Knows Best, but those who haven’t tuned in are wondering if she is gay.

With cameras following every aspect of her home life, it’s hard for Savannah Chrisley to avoid putting her dating life on show. Chrisley Knows Best aired in 2014 but is speculated to have been canceled due to Todd and Julie’s prison sentences for bank and tax fraud.

With only a limited number of episodes left, Reality Titbit looks into Savannah’s current relationship status and her sexuality for those who haven’t been keeping up with the Chrisleys.

Is Savannah Chrisley gay?

No, Savannah is not gay. The 26-year-old has never explicitly stated her sexual preferences, but all her public relationships have only been with men.

The first partner to make their reality TV debut as Savannah’s boyfriend was country singer Blaire Hanks. The 30-year-old appeared on the show in 2015 and the pair split after two years as public attention took a toll. Things ended on a good note as the couple had no hard feelings.

Hanks has been happily married to his wife, Isabella, since 2020.

After Blaire, Savannah briefly dated Luke Kennard, a Memphis Grizzlies athlete who was a Duke’s Blue Devils at the time. Things only last for four months, despite Todd’s approval of the NBA player. Luke was hailed as a “good, decent, and honorable young man,” but the father of five later slammed the athlete for his “inexcusable” behavior after the breakup.

“The ex is a young guy, NBA, made a lot of money, and he’s doing exactly what NBA players do. It’s absolutely no excuse,” he said.

Kennard married Anna Castro in August 2022.

Savannah was subsequently linked to The Bachelor star Colton Underwood, but it was never a serious relationship. They reportedly secretly attended the Country Music Awards in 2017 since Underwood wanted a casual fling after just coming out of a romance with Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman.

Is Savannah Chrisley still engaged?

No, she is not engaged.

Chrisley’s most publicized relationship was with ice hockey player Nic Kerdiles in 2018. The pair, like the majority of modern romances, met through Instagram. Savannah made the first move, which ended up blossoming into a three-year connection.

Savannah and Nic were engaged in March 2019. They called off the marriage the following June and officially broke up two months later. Kerdiles and Chrisley even published engagement photos, which are still floating on the internet.

Kerdile died on September 23, 2023 following a motorcycle crash in Nashville. He suffered from broken bones, bruising of the brain, and abrasions. He died of his injuries in hospital at the age of 29.

So, is Savannah a taken woman?

Yes, she’s currently in a relationship with Robert Shiver, a former Auburn University football player. He was signed by the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons in 2009, but was reportedly cut from the team before the season began.

Shiver filed for divorce from his wife, Lindsay, in April 2023. The former athlete gained press attention as he was allegedly a victim of a murder plot at the hands of his wife.

“Lindsay was arrested in the Bahamas for allegedly conspiring with two other men to kill her husband. Shiver, and two male co-defendants, have been charged with murder conspiracy,” reports NBC.

The mother of three has denied the accusations and has been out of jail on $100,000 bail since August, but she must remain in the Bahamas and is tracked by a GPS ankle monitor.

She pleaded not guilty during her appearance in Nassaur’s Supreme Court on November 8, 2023 and a trial date has been set for March 4, 2024.
