Savannah Chrisley Discusses Robert Shiver Split, Cites Ex-Wife’s Influence
Reality television personality Savannah Chrisley has publicly addressed her recent separation from former boyfriend Robert Shiver, suggesting that his ex-wife, Lindsay Shiver, played a significant role in the dissolution of their relationship. Chrisley indicated Lindsay Shiver’s actions following her release from incarceration and while awaiting trial for an alleged murder-for-hire plot contributed to the breakup.
Breakup After Nearly Two Years
The former star of “Chrisley Knows Best,” aged 27, announced on Tuesday that she and Shiver ended their romantic involvement last month, concluding almost two years as a couple.
Chrisley Points to Ex-Wife’s Actions
Chrisley directly attributed the relationship’s demise to Lindsay Shiver, the former spouse of the ex-Auburn University football player. She asserted that Lindsay caused “significant disruption” in their lives after being released from a Bahamian correctional facility in February.
Podcast Remarks
“Ordinarily, I would refrain from granting her the attention she actively seeks,” Chrisley stated on her “Unlocked” podcast. “However, it appears to be the necessary approach.”
“I doubt I will ever excuse her behavior toward Robert and his children. I believe Robert and I would not be in our current situation had she not instigated such widespread turmoil.”

Past Relationship Dynamics
The podcast host acknowledged that her 39-year-old former partner “should have addressed personal issues” before they began dating in August 2023.
“I feel there’s a tendency to negatively stereotype men in relationships. It’s often generalizations like, ‘Men always do this or that.’ But it’s important to acknowledge that women are also capable of causing considerable damage. That is simply the reality. And that is precisely what she did,” Chrisley commented.
“She inflicted substantial harm and ultimately damaged a good person. She truly devastated him.”
Murder-for-Hire Allegations
Lindsay Shiver, along with Terrance Bethel, identified as her Bahamian romantic partner, faces accusations of conspiring to commission Faron Newbold Jr., allegedly a hitman, to murder Robert in July 2023.
The Shivers’ 13-year marriage encountered serious difficulties when Robert accused Lindsay of infidelity, while she countered with claims of “physical and emotional abuse.”
Discovery of Alleged Plot
Law enforcement authorities reportedly uncovered the alleged murder plot while examining Bethel’s mobile phone during an investigation into an unrelated burglary at a bar in Great Guana Cay, Bahamas.
Lindsay Shiver, Bethel, and Newbold were apprehended in July 2023 and entered pleas of not guilty to all charges.
Life Before “Chaos”
“During her extended stay in the Bahamas, life was harmonious,” Chrisley recounted. “We were settled into routines, not just Robert and myself, but also his children. There was no conflict; it was a tranquil environment.”
Return and Renewed Conflict
Lindsay Shiver was released from Fox Hill prison in Nassau after posting $100,000 bail in August 2023.
Chrisley indicated a shift in her relationship with Robert occurred following Lindsay’s return from the Bahamas earlier this year, alleging Lindsay attempted to “disrupt everything” in her vicinity.
“Upon her return to the United States, not only did she reappear, but turmoil resumed alongside her,” Chrisley asserted. “It seemed as though she aimed to destroy everything in Robert’s life, her own life, everyone’s. There was a complete absence of consideration for anyone else, except herself.”
Accusations of Leaking Information
The reality TV personality further accused Lindsay of disseminating information to the media.
Custody Attempts
“She did not want me involved,” Chrisley stated. “There was a period when she attempted to persuade the courts to prohibit my contact with the children.”
“Too Much Chaos”
The beauty entrepreneur suggested that Lindsay’s “disorder” became overwhelming for Robert to manage.
Chrisley’s Role
Chrisley expressed her belief that she entered Robert’s life during a period when he needed “optimism,” and that her purpose was to demonstrate that “love is possible after turmoil.”
Trial Date Set
Lindsay Shiver’s trial is currently scheduled for August 2025.
