Radar Online reports the father of Chrisley’s first child is businessman Jason Galanis.
Savannah Chrisley’s private relationship is private no longer. Radar Online identified her fiancé as Jason Galanis, the businessman and convicted fraudster Chrisley had discussed for months without naming, after Chrisley announced on Instagram that she is expecting her first child.
That makes the romance legible in a different way. Chrisley had already been narrating the outline of it in public — an older man, a calmer life, less chaos as a brand strategy and perhaps also as a genuine preference — but not the name. Radar says Galanis is 56, and its report ties him to the “mystery” boyfriend Chrisley had described across podcast appearances.
According to the outlet, Chrisley said on an August 2025 episode of her podcast that she planned to marry someone “much, much older” after her March 2025 split from Robert Shiver. In a June appearance on the Whine Down podcast, she described her then-boyfriend only as “a financial guy” who was secure enough not to be threatened by her career. That now reads less like flirtation and more like a very deliberate soft launch.
The harder fact attached to Galanis is his criminal record. Radar cites his 2020 federal sentence of 15 years and nine months for his role in two multimillion-dollar securities fraud schemes, along with nearly $162 million in forfeiture and restitution. The outlet also quotes then-acting US attorney Audrey Strauss, who said at the time that Galanis had orchestrated fraud schemes involving market manipulation and money meant for tribal economic development projects.
Radar further notes that Galanis later testified before the House Oversight Committee during the Republican-led impeachment inquiry into then-President Joe Biden, and that President Donald Trump commuted Galanis’ federal prison sentence on March 28, 2025. The report also says Galanis had worked with Hunter Biden and Devon Archer in past business dealings; it adds that Hunter Biden was not charged in connection with the fraud scheme described and that his lawyer said he did not know his name had been used to promote the transactions.
Chrisley, according to Radar, said she met Galanis “in the world of politics” after he texted to congratulate her following the pardon of her parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, on May 28, 2025. She later said their conversations deepened into a relationship. Radar says she has dated him since July 2025 and has described a proposal in the Cayman Islands in December 2025.
This is the part of celebrity culture that always tells on itself: privacy is maintained until the reveal improves the story. Chrisley did not just announce a pregnancy; she also allowed the public narrative around her partner to catch up all at once. The result is less a romantic mystery solved than a reputational merger completed, with family news, politics and old fraud headlines now sharing the same frame.
