Savannah Chrisley, star of Chrisley Knows Best, recently made her first public appearance with boyfriend Robert Shiver at the Melodies for Minds event in Nashville. In an interview with PEOPLE, Chrisley expressed her excitement about their relationship, describing it as 'fantastic.' Shiver, a former football player at Auburn University, has been a source of comfort for Chrisley amidst the difficult times her family has been facing.
Both of Chrisley's parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, have been serving prison sentences for the past 13 months on charges of fraud and tax evasion. Despite the challenges, Savannah remains positive, believing that unexpected blessings can sometimes arise during the worst of times. She sees her relationship with Shiver as one of those unexpected gifts.
In addition to sharing her joy about her new love, Savannah also provided an update on her younger siblings, 17-year-old Grayson and 11-year-old Chloe. While their parents are away, Savannah has taken on the responsibility of caring for them. She spoke highly of their resiliency, emphasizing their involvement in therapy and various activities to help them cope with the situation.
Savannah's relationship with Shiver has had a profound impact on her overall outlook on life. Despite the negative events that have occurred, she feels incredibly grateful to have someone in her life who loves and cares for her and is a positive influence on her family. She believes that finding beauty in the midst of challenges is possible, which has brought her immense gratitude. Their relationship was first publicly rumored in the fall and later confirmed in mid-September. Since then, they've gone Instagram-official, sharing adorable and affectionate photos.
Before being involved with Savannah, Robert Shiver gained some media attention due to a harrowing incident involving his then-wife Lindsay Shiver. Lindsay, her boyfriend Terrance Bethel, and an alleged hitman named Farron Newbold Jr. were arrested in connection to an alleged murder plot against Robert. Lindsay's infidelity with Bethel led to their divorce filing, which eventually unraveled the shocking events.
Savannah Chrisley's story is a testament to finding happiness and love even in the midst of difficult times. Her positive outlook and appreciation for the unexpected gifts life brings are inspiring. We can only hope for the best for Savannah, Robert, and her entire family as they navigate through these challenging circumstances.
