“I was just like, ‘I can’t do this anymore.’ And there were so many times to where I just kept running and running and running, and then you get to a point, you’re like, ‘I can’t run anymore, and I also can’t deal with feeling how I feel,’” Savannah recalled during the Unlocked podcast.

The Sassy by Savannah mogul went on to add that her parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley had swept things under the rug. “We hid it so well. Producers didn’t know. No one knew a thing,” she shared. “My dad’s a very prideful person, and growing up, especially on TV, it was like, ‘We don’t talk to therapists. We talk to each other. That’s what you do. No one on the outside needs to know any of our business.’”
