Savannah Chrisley's Surprise Proposal Sparks Wedding and Baby Buzz
Savannah Chrisley is celebrating another major milestone after announcing her pregnancy.
During the Tuesday, October 27, episode of her "Unlocked" podcast, Chrisley, 29, revealed her boyfriend, Jason, proposed during a getaway to their "happy place" in the Cayman Islands.
"Jason and I started dating in July, so ... five months [later]," she said. "Timing means nothing, guys, OK? But back in December, Jason and I were in the Cayman Islands, and little did I know, he had a ring in his backpack."
Chrisley joked she "didn't have to snoop" to find it. "Jason was getting a charger out of his backpack, I think I called him in the other room," she recalled. "He came in there and then he left a box on the counter. I was like, 'Oh, my God, is that what I think it is?' But I didn't know, to be, you know, 100 percent."
According to the Chrisley Knows Best alum, the couple took a trip to another island, which was "extremely secluded."
"It was the coolest thing ever," she said. "But ... there was a point in time to where I saw that he was, like, distracted. And I'm like, 'What's going on?'"
Jason was apparently texting a friend of Chrisley's and telling her he thought they were in the perfect place to propose. The friend picked up the ring and flew by helicopter to the island, later telling the couple their flight that afternoon had been delayed an hour.
As the pair got ready to make their way to the airport, Jason led Chrisley to a setup with flowers and champagne.
"I just think he's being sweet, like, I had no idea ... I had been in the ocean all day. I was in a swimsuit," she recalled. "I had hair, makeup not done, none of that. So I had no idea."
The moment took a "hilarious" turn when Jason couldn't find the ring, which was hidden in a tree, but he eventually proposed.
"When he gave me the ring, he was like, 'Before I open this, I just want you to know that this is just an expression of love to you. This can be whatever you want it to be. This can be an engagement ring, a promise ring, a cocktail ring for all I care. I just want you to know how much I love you,'" Chrisley said. "And there was no pressure ever put on me to, like, 'You have to accept this as this.'"
Chrisley acknowledged that the proposal came "really quick" into their relationship, but she didn't care. "I feel like you could find out more about a person in three months than you did in a whole year of being with them," she asserted.
The former reality star was "in such shock" during the special moment that she began to cry. She raved over the "insane" ring, which she said was "everything I ever wanted."
Chrisley noted, "It was just the most magical, amazing experience [in] the entire world. It was all filmed, and so we have videos of it, photos of it, and that's just us. And I absolutely love him for who he is and creating those special moments for us."
Chrisley also announced her pregnancy via Instagram on Tuesday, adding on her podcast that the unexpected timing made the couple adjust their wedding plans.
"Our wedding was scheduled for January 9 of 2027," she explained. "And let me tell you, it was going to be a phenomenal time. It still is going to be a phenomenal time. It has just been pushed a few months to May of 2027. And that is because we got the surprise of a lifetime."
Though she had been going through a fertility journey, Chrisley said her pregnancy was a "major plot twist."
"We both were so shocked, so thrilled," she gushed. "God's hand was written all over this. ... We are unbelievably excited and cannot wait for this baby to get here."
