Todd Chrisley – Hears About The Media And Nic Kerdiles

Nic Kerdiles and Savannah split a few times and at the moment, fans don’t know for sure if they split again. In any event, Savannah appeared with her dad and Nic following her dad being contacted by a media outlet. Actually, probably for the first time ever, Savannah didn’t look too keen on going in front of the cameras. In fact, fans saw that her dad had to prompt her to start talking. Perhaps, she was very worried and upset about Nic Kerdiles’ suicide attempt.

Todd Chrisley and his daughter fully supported Nic, and it became apparent that what upset Savannah was the fact that Nic didn’t feel ready to share his story. However, Todd noted that a media outlet got ahold of him and they wanted to write a headline about Nic. However, if he gave them some insider quotes, they would leave Nic’s name off the headline. Well, USA Network fans know Todd won’t tolerate that sort of thing. So, they spoke out about it themselves.
