The Truth About Chase And Savannah Chrisley's Relationship
Growing up under the watchful eye of patriarch Todd Chrisley, you need all the allies you can get. Brother and sister Chase and Savannah Chrisley joined forces early on, and their bond was so unmistakable on the family's reality show, "Chrisley Knows Best," that the duo was given their own spinoff, "Growing Up Chrisley." As People reported at the time back in 2018, the show found Chase and Savannah road-tripping to L.A., where she could pursue her dream of working in cosmetics and he could try his hand at acting. "Stay tuned ... for all the craziness to come!" Savannah said in promoting the show.
Fans of the reality stars will know they're always in each other's corners, with Savannah posting on Instagram, "I don't need a superhero ... I have a big brother" alongside a shot of them smiling together. Likewise, E! revealed in a Season 8 preview for "Chrisley Knows Best" that Savannah told Chase she was going to call off her wedding to Nic Kerdiles before telling anybody else, and he was incredibly supportive, telling his sister to do whatever it takes to be happy.
Growing up in front of the world brought them closer together
Although growing up on TV may seem glamorous, Chase and Savannah Chrisley made it clear, in an interview with People, that it can also be incredibly difficult. "It forced us to grow up fast," Chase explained. "I know I've made my fair share of mistakes ... Every time we screw up it's in the public eye." Savannah agreed, admitting, "There was a lot of pressure to be perfect and to know that mothers are allowing their daughters to follow me on social media and look up to me. I've put a lot of pressure on myself in order to live this perfect life and not disappoint people."
Thankfully, they have each other, and appearing on reality TV at a young age has made their bond stronger, with Savannah telling UPI, "It's us against the world" in response to why the duo was gifted their own spinoff show. "It was an adventure," she added. However, there's one downside to Chase striking out in a bid for independence with his sister — their father. "As long as Savannah's around, there will be that lurking presence. You can feel him," he remarked.
Savannah honored their bond with her makeup line
In July 2021, Savannah Chrisley took to Instagram to celebrate the eight-month anniversary of her makeup line, Sassy by Savannah. "I can't believe it's only been 8 months since @sassybysavannah launched!!!" she enthused, alongside footage of her shooting promotional material. Although the name "Sassy" might seem self-explanatory, there's actually a sweet story behind it — not to mention, unsurprisingly, a family connection. On the brand's website, Savannah notes that Sassy is "lively, bold, and full of spirit."
However, she goes on to explain it's a nickname that's been used since the makeup maven was a child, which was given to her by brother Chase Chrisley. "Being only 14 months apart, he could never pronounce Savannah therefore 'Sassy' stuck," she noted. Moreover, it's a perfectly descriptive moniker for the budding entrepreneur, who added, "And for anyone who knows me, you know that the name could not be more fitting." Ever the supportive sibling, Chase also made sure to promote his sister's makeup collection on Instagram as well, writing, "Y'all go get yours now!!"
Chase and Savannah Chrisley are BFFs first and foremost
Chase and Savannah Chrisley aren't just siblings — they're also best friends. In August 2020, Chase took to Instagram to wish his "Growing Up Chrisley" co-star a happy birthday. Alongside a sweet slideshow of the duo at various points in their lives, Chase wrote, "Happy birthday @savannahchrisley I'm beyond proud of the woman you are and what you stand for as a person. Everyday you continue to surprise me and I'm so blessed to call you my little sister! I hope you have an amazing day! I love you!!"
Savannah returned the favor the following June, with a similarly adorable Instagram slideshow and a message proclaiming Chase her "forever bestfriend!" The "Chrisley Knows Best" breakout described Chase as having "one of the kindest most loving hearts out of anyone that I know" and reiterated his message about being proud of the person he's become. "Blessed that I get to call you my big brother!" Savannah concluded her post. Evidently, these two aren't just family, they're chosen family, which explains why fans of both shows just can't get enough.
