    Watch: Pregnant Savannah Chrisley’s Fiancé Revealed as Former “Porn’s New King” Jason Galanis

    Savannah Chrisley‘s mystery fiancé has been identified.

    After the Chrisley Knows Best alum announced that she’s pregnant with her first child, the father of her baby on the way has been revealed as Jason Galanis by multiple outlets.

    “There is a huge age gap there,” Chrisley shared on the Oct. 27 episode of her Unlocked podcast, explaining that’s “probably part of the reason why I kept a lot of it quiet, because I know how brutal the public can be.”

    The 29-year-old daughter of Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley continued, “The age difference—so what? I don’t care. He does not look his age, nor does he act his age. His body is great. His mind is even sharper.”

    Indeed, Jason is 27 years older than Savannah, who most recently dated Robert Shriver for two years before their 2025 breakup. The 56-year-old was notably dubbed as “Porn’s New King” by Forbes in 2004 following his purchase of the United States’ largest processor of payments for internet porn.

    And like Savannah’s parents, who were granted clemency by President Donald Trump last year, Jason also has ties to the current commander-in-chief. After all, he, too, made headlines in 2025 when his 14-year prison sentence for his role in two multimillion-dollar fraud schemes received a presidential pardon.

    In fact, the parallels between Jason’s case and the legal saga involving Savannah’s parents—who were convicted on bank fraud and tax evasion charges in 2022—were what led the couple to cross paths. As Savannah put it in her podcast, the two met “in the world of politics” as she was seeking pardons for Todd and Julie.

    “When we truly started digging deep into things,” Savannah continued, “it was so much stronger of a connection than either of us ever thought was there.”

    And that connection led to their engagement last December after five months of dating.

    “Jason and I were in the Cayman Islands and little did I know he had a ring in his backpack,” she recalled. “Jason was getting a charger out of his backpack. I think I called him in the other room. 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 100 percent.”

    Jason ended up bringing out the ring after a day at the beach, with Savannah revealing he told her, “‘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.’”

    “That proposal was just right. It was everything,” she added. “I would not trade that moment for anything in the entire world because it was us.”

As for Julie, she was working at a bank when she started dating Todd. Chrisley Knows Best ran from 2014 to 2023 and led to spin-offs like Growing Up Chrisley and What’s Cooking With Julie? as well as other media ventures like the family members’ podcasts.In 2022, Todd and Julie were convicted of fraud and tax crimes, and they were originally sentenced to 12 and seven years in prison, respectively (with him being held in Florida and her being behind bars in Kentucky).

We’ve clung together and we’re still fighting.”Chase had his own run-in with the law in January 2025, when he was arrested in Atlanta on a simple battery charge for allegedly becoming “really drunk” and slapping a bar manager after being asked to leave, according to police records obtained by E!
