Savannah Chrisley & Nic Kerdiles: Why Their Relationship ‘Fizzled’ After 3 Years Together

Savannah Chrisley’s broken engagement with Nic Kerdiles came as a shock to most fans, but their romance just ran its course. HollywoodLife learned what went wrong between the pair, and how they’re coping after the split.

Savannah Chrisley and Nic Kerdiles‘ engagement may have ended, but they’re still closer than ever. — That’s due in part to the ex-couple’s mutual understanding that they’re just not the right fit for one another. The Chrisley Knows Best star, 23, announced her split from the pro hockey player, 26, nearly two years after getting engaged in a post on Instagram on September 16. The news came after Savannah revealed in June that the couple decided to postpone their nuptials “to work on things on a different level.” — A decision that wasn’t an easy one.

“When they took a step back from their engagement, it was hard for them,” a source close to Savannah told HollywoodLife, exclusively. “They had to look at their relationship and the pressures that come with a wedding. She’s very much a type-A personality, and Nick is more laid back, so they found out that that  combination didn’t work well and the relationship fizzled,” the insider explained, adding, “She’s got a very strong personality and they just didn’t mesh well for anything long term.”

Despite their decision to end their relationship, Savannah and Nick are both doing “just fine,” the source said. “They’re both as upbeat as possible and they know they’ll be OK. They had a great three years together, but she’s ready to move on as difficult of a decision as that may be. It’s still sad for them both, but there’s no bad feelings,” the insider revealed. “It just wasn’t the right fit. But, they’re still so young. She’s super into faith, so in her eyes, what was meant to be must be part of a bigger plan. They really are the best of friends and plan on continuing that friendship. It’s very real and honest.”

Savannah and Nic have been the subject of split rumors for months. The reality star shed light on the situation in June, when she opened up about their relationship struggles.
