Savannah Chrisley is mentally and emotionally very strong and her recent interview confirms it. The Chrisley Knows Best alum opened up about the happy and sad emotions that come with falling for her new boyfriend Robert Shiver while also continuing to grieve the death of her ex-fiancé Nic Kerdiles. “I’m just afraid of allowing any love into my life in fear of losing it,” she mentioned on her Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley podcast.


Chrisley, 26, then cited the ongoing grief surrounding both Kerdiles’ death and her parents Todd and Julie Chrisley's years-long prison sentences, confirmed, “That’s the toughest thing in the entire world is to, for me, to let my guard down and allow love into my life, and then it get ripped away.” “I think you get so used to doing life solo that it’s like … all right, I don’t need anything because if you’re gonna come in and disrupt it, then there we are, and now I have to start over and I have to heal again,“ she continued. “I’ve spent a lot of my life healing.”

There is another way Chrisley thinks of at love, though. “I get to the other side of it and I’m like, you know what? Grief also teaches you that life is short — that you lose people. You don’t know when the last moment you’re gonna have with someone is.”

Explaining the same she said that “it's confusing” grappling with grief, Chrisley concluded that there’s no use in holding back words, actions and experiences, knowing that any time you see someone could be the last. The star also noted at the episode's beginning that she was “ready for the year to be over” despite having filmed the segment on Jan. 9.


Her reasoning was linked to the odd reminders of Kerdiles that were all around her that week. The first instance was that it would have been her sixth anniversary with Kerdiles, had they not ended their relationship.
