Savannah Chrisley has opened up about her relationship with fianc\u00e9 Jason Galanis, revealing how they met and why their 27-year age gap doesn\u2019t bother her.<\/p>\n
The Chrisley Knows Best star first spoke about her love life during a May 2026 episode of her podcast, Unlocked<\/a>, though she kept the details to a minimum. \u201cI am dating someone. I am extremely happy and extremely fulfilled in life,\u201d she said at the time. \u201cI feel like where I am at in life is the moment that I had always dreamt of but never thought was possible.\u201d<\/p>\n Savannah said she planned to keep the relationship private, but on the 27th October episode of Unlocked, she revealed his name, Jason, and confirmed they\u2019ve been together since July 2025.<\/p>\n Savannah, said she and Jason met \u201cin the world of politics\u201d, at a time when dating was the last thing on her mind, as she was focused on getting her parents released from prison. \u201cThe first time we met, I was like, \u2018He\u2019s attractive. Yeah, he\u2019s really hot,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Even so, she \u201cdidn\u2019t really know what to think of him at first.\u201d Things changed after Donald Trump pardoned her parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, on 28th May 2025. Four days later, on 1st June, Jason sent her a text to congratulate her.<\/p>\n \u201cThe first text that Jason sent me was, \u2018Hey, Savannah, it\u2019s just incredible what you did for your family. You never stopped. Fearless person. Congratulations,\u2019\u201d she recalled, admitting it took her nine days to reply.<\/p>\n \u201cI responded and then there we went,\u201d she said. \u201cWe just were texting back and forth. And then, when we truly started digging deep into things, it was so much stronger of a connection than either of us ever thought was there.\u201d<\/p>\n Jason is 56, making him 27 years older than Savannah, but she says the \u201chuge age gap\u201d doesn\u2019t worry her.<\/p>\n \u201cI would rather 20 phenomenal, unbelievable years with someone than 50 just meh years,\u201d she said. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t look his age, nor does he act his age. His body is great, his mind is even sharper. […] This person is the love of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n Before he started dating Savannah, Jason knew her dad Todd best, as the pair served time together at the Federal Prison Camp in Pensacola, Florida.<\/p>\n Jason was sentenced to 15 years in prison for his role in two fraud schemes, including one that took millions of dollars from a Native American tribal entity, and was ordered to pay nearly $81 million in restitution. He was pardoned by Trump in March 2025.<\/p>\n Two months later, Todd, 58, and Julie, 53, were also pardoned. The couple had been convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion, and began their sentences in January 2023, with Todd sentenced to 12 years and Julie to seven.<\/p>\n For all the latest reality TV cast member news, scandals, gossip and updates \u2013 like <\/i>Reality Shrine<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/a> on <\/i>Facebook<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What do you mean he was in jail with her dad?!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":249734183,"featured_media":65514,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1358],"tags":[1664,1984],"class_list":["post-65511","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-chrisley-knows-best","tag-savannah-chrisley"],"acf":[],"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/10\/28\/savannah-chrisley-addresses-27-year-age-gap-with-fiance-jason-galanis-and-how-they-met\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Savannah Chrisley explains how she and fianc\u00e9 Jason Galanis met amid 27-year age gap","url":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/10\/28\/savannah-chrisley-addresses-27-year-age-gap-with-fiance-jason-galanis-and-how-they-met\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/10\/28\/savannah-chrisley-addresses-27-year-age-gap-with-fiance-jason-galanis-and-how-they-met\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-2-6-150x150.png","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-2-6.png"},"articleSection":"News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ellie Ring"}],"creator":["Ellie Ring"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Reality Shrine","logo":"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/cropped-mX3_1x3z.png"},"keywords":["chrisley knows best","savannah chrisley"],"dateCreated":"2026-10-28T11:10:12Z","datePublished":"2026-10-28T11:10:12Z","dateModified":"2026-10-28T11:26:58Z"},"rendered":"How Savannah Chrisley and Jason Galanis met<\/h2>\n
