Savannah Chrisley, star of the reality television show “Chrisley Knows Best,” recently spoke about her suicide attempt when she was around 15 or 16 years old in an interview on her podcast, “Unlocked.” During the podcast, she talked with Patrick Custer, an advocate for mental health and addiction, about her experiences with depression.
Chrisley admitted that she does not remember the details of the suicide attempt because it was “all really a blur.” She also believes that she may have lost memory of the incident due to side effects linked to what she did to herself.
She did, however, recall that her parents were present when she woke up in the hospital. Her father spent countless hours with her each day in the hospital afterwards, helping her to deal with her problems.
This revelation comes after a difficult time for the Chrisley family. In 2019, Savannah’s parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, were sentenced to jail for fraud, specifically bank fraud and tax evasion. Despite this, Savannah has remained loyal to her parents, marking their birthdays and holidays over social media.
The Chrisley’s sentencing led Savannah to gain custody of her younger brother and niece, which left her questioning whether she wanted children of her own someday. She expressed her struggles with mental health during the show and the impact that her parents’ imprisonment had on her mental health.
Savannah’s former fiancé, Nic Kerdiles, attempted suicide earlier this year. Savannah’s comments on her podcast shed light on the importance of mental health awareness and seeking help when needed.
