In a heartfelt revelation that has shocked fans, Chrisley Knows Best star Savannah Chrisley has confirmed her split from former football player Robert Shiver after nearly two years of dating. The announcement came just days before she plans to open up about the emotional breakup on her podcast, Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley.
A Relationship Built on Resilience
The couple began dating in August 2023, going public just a month later. Throughout their relationship, Savannah and Robert navigated intense personal challenges, including Robert Shiver’s ongoing divorce and the aftermath of a highly publicized murder-for-hire plot involving his estranged wife, Lindsay Shiver.
In an exclusive statement to People, Savannah reflected on the relationship with maturity and grace:
“There’s no bad blood. He’s an incredible person who brought so much joy and peace into my life,” Savannah said. “But there comes a time when you realize that love isn’t always enough when life gets too complicated.”
Why Did Savannah Chrisley and Robert Shiver Break Up?
While the couple had previously talked about marriage and building a future together, Savannah admitted that timing and unresolved issues played a critical role in the breakup:
“We definitely talked about marriage and kids. But he has things he still needs to work through, and I have a lot on my plate with raising my siblings,” she revealed.
For context, Savannah became the legal guardian of her younger brother and niece after Todd and Julie Chrisley began serving their prison sentences for tax evasion and fraud.
The Weight of Public and Personal Struggles
Savannah and Robert’s relationship was put under the microscope when Lindsay Shiver, a former beauty queen, was arrested in the Bahamas in July 2023 for allegedly plotting to kill Robert. The drama, coupled with legal complexities and media attention, placed strain on the relationship.
Despite the split, Savannah expressed gratitude for the support Robert gave during some of the hardest moments of her life:
“He was there for me when everything felt like it was falling apart. I’ll always be thankful for that.”
What’s Next for Savannah Chrisley?
Savannah plans to discuss the breakup further on her podcast Unlocked, promising fans a transparent and emotional episode. The show, which often tackles themes of mental health, family struggles, and personal growth, has grown in popularity over the past year, becoming a trusted platform for fans seeking authenticity.
“I owe it to my listeners to be real about what I’m going through. This isn’t just reality TV — this is real life.”
The breakup may have ended their romantic chapter, but Savannah and Robert’s journey has been a testament to strength, honesty, and emotional maturity. As Savannah continues to raise her siblings and build her brand, fans are rooting for her every step of the way.
