Savannah Chrisley has cited the actions of Robert Shiver’s estranged wife, Lindsay, as a primary reason for the recent end of her relationship with the former NFL player. The split occurred on March 6th and, according to Savannah, is largely attributable to the turmoil caused by Lindsay Shiver.
During an episode of her podcast, “I Got Dumped,” Chrisley stated she felt compelled to address the situation despite wanting to avoid giving notoriety to Lindsay. “I don’t wanna give her the notoriety that she has so badly been seeking, but I feel like that’s the only way to go,” she said.
The circumstances surrounding Lindsay Shiver are particularly complex and unsettling. She faces serious accusations of orchestrating a murder-for-hire plot against Robert Shiver during their divorce proceedings. Here’s what’s known:
- Robert Shiver filed for divorce in 2023 citing “adulterous conduct.”
- Shortly after, Lindsay Shiver filed her own petition, claiming her new relationship had been “legally condoned” by Robert.
- A physical altercation occurred in July 2023 when Lindsay attempted to board the family’s private jet for a trip to the Bahamas with her boyfriend.
- Following this incident, authorities allege that Lindsay sent texts to her then-boyfriend and another individual instructing them to harm Robert. This alleged plot was uncovered during an investigation into a robbery at a bar previously frequented by Bethel.
Lindsay Shiver is currently awaiting trial in the Bahamas, which is scheduled for August.
Chrisley expressed deep concern regarding the impact of Lindsay’s actions on Robert. “She absolutely destroyed a great man when it comes to his heart and his life, just all of it,” she stated during her podcast appearance. She further suggested that Robert needed time to heal from past trauma before entering a new relationship.
Chrisley described the return of Lindsay in Robert’s life as bringing “chaos” back into their lives. “It’s like she wanted to destroy everything in his path, her path, everyone,” Chrisley claimed. She alleged that Lindsay exhibited a lack of concern for anyone but herself.
Savannah indicated that the situation became overwhelming for Robert. “I know it was too much for him to handle,” she said.
Despite the breakup with Robert, Savannah emphasized her commitment to his three sons, whom he shares with Lindsay. “Fortunately, the conversations with the kids haven’t stopped,” she explained. “When I got into a relationship with Robert, I also got into a relationship with his kids, and I vowed to always show up, always be there, and I was not gonna be another disappointment for them, because they’ve had a lot.” She affirmed her dedication to continuing those relationships.
Savannah Chrisley stated she is taking a break from dating but does not want to enter into any relationship until Robert’s divorce is finalized. “He’s no further along in his divorce today than he was the day that I met him, which is absolutely insane,” she commented.
