Savannah Chrisley has no time for anyone’s opinion on her relationship with an older man.
“Yes, there is a huge age gap there, OK?” Chrisley, 29, said on the Tuesday, October 27, episode of her “Unlocked” podcast, announcing her engagement to fiancé Jason and revealing her pregnancy. “And that’s probably part of the reason why I kept a lot of it quiet, because I know how brutal the public can be. But I genuinely do not care.”
Chrisley continued, “I have always said, ‘I would rather [have] 20 phenomenal, unbelievable years with someone than 50 just [fine] years.’ Like, the amount of love and respect that we have, we have so many dreams and we dream together, we work together … we want to have life experiences with each other. And I think that’s when you know you have the right person, when you don’t feel like you have to escape them at times.”
The former reality star referred to Jason as her “best friend,” adding, “We do everything together. … And it’s just such an amazing, fulfilling feeling to finally find your person. And I’m there. So yes, the age difference. So what?”
Chrisley also pointed out that her fiancé “does not look his age, nor does he act his age.”
“His body is great. His mind is even sharper. So I really don’t care, OK?” she added. “Like, this person is the love of my life. And it made all the heartbreak that I’ve gone through worth it. And all the heartbreak taught me something. It taught me what I want, what I don’t want, what I should accept, what I shouldn’t accept.”
Chrisley announced via Instagram on Tuesday that she is pregnant with the couple’s first baby. While she’s shared limited information about Jason’s identity, she gave “Unlocked” listeners more details about his “magical” proposal in the Cayman Islands.

“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,’” she recalled on the podcast. “And there was no pressure ever put on me to, like, ‘You have to accept this as this.’”
Chrisley gushed over her “insane” ring, saying the design is “everything I ever wanted.” She also acknowledged that the engagement was “really quick,” but she insisted, “Timing means nothing.”
Savannah Chrisley was honest about her stance on marriage for years before her engagement to her mystery partner, known to the public only as Jason. The topic of marriage was at the forefront of a November 2025 episode of her “Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley” podcast, as Savannah, 28, was joined by her dad, Todd Chrisley, […]
Before announcing the pair’s milestones, Chrisley opened up about dating an older man, revealing in June that Jason is “a financial guy” who she met through “the political world of D.C.”
“You see, age-gap relationships are the new thing. … There’s all these couples that [have] a huge age-gap relationship, but it just works, like, it’s insane,” she said on the “Whine Down” podcast, joking that her dad, Todd Chrisley, wasn’t “fond” of the age difference at first. “I love it because you’re not dealing with the insecurity of a younger guy who’s trying to keep up.”
Savannah noted at the time that this was “the healthiest relationship” she’s ever been in. “In the year we’ve been together, we’ve never yelled at each other, we’ve never name-called, none of that, but [we] still go to therapy together because we’re like, ‘Let’s do it before we actually need to do it,’” she explained. “It’s the greatest.”
