The mystery surrounding Savannah Chrisley’s pregnancy announcement is officially over. Her fiancé has been identified as Jason Galanis, a 56-year-old convicted fraudster and the father of her first child. The 27-year age gap between the couple has already sparked a wave of conversation online, but the details of Galanis’s past are what really have people talking.
Galanis was sentenced in 2020 to more than 14 years in prison for fraud schemes that defrauded a Native American tribe and investors out of tens of millions of dollars. He was ordered to forfeit approximately $80 million and pay equal restitution. That sentence was commuted by President Trump in March 2025, removing his remaining prison time and financial penalties. While incarcerated, Galanis also testified in the Republican impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.
Chrisley had kept her fiancé’s identity private until Us Weekly confirmed the news on Tuesday. With her parents still serving federal sentences and her first child on the way, this storyline has quickly become one of the most talked-about celebrity stories of the week.
