Savannah Chrisley is pregnant and engaged to Jason Galanis, a businessman whose fraud sentence Trump commuted in 2025.

Jason Galanis, a 56 year old businessman with a federal fraud conviction, is the fiancé Savannah Chrisley kept under wraps until she announced her pregnancy on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026.

At a glance: Chrisley, 29, says she is pregnant with her first child and engaged. Galanis is 27 years her senior. They began dating in July 2025 and got engaged five months later in the Cayman Islands.

Who is Jason Galanis?

Galanis was sentenced to 189 months in prison in September 2020 for multiple securities fraud schemes and President Trump commuted the sentence in March 2025. TMZ describes him as a former business partner of Hunter Biden. E! News adds that Forbes once branded him "Porn's New King," and that he served time in the same prison as Todd Chrisley.

How did Savannah Chrisley announce the news?

Twice, in fact. She shared it on Instagram, keeping Galanis' face covered and a new episode of her Unlocked podcast filled in the rest. On it, she called their bond a "dream relationship."

She didn't dodge the age gap. "Yes, there is a huge age gap there, OK?" she said. She also said she'd rather have 20 phenomenal years with someone than 50 mediocre ones.

When and where did Jason Galanis propose?

He proposed in December 2025 while the couple vacationed in the Cayman Islands. He designed the ring with Genovese Jewelers and presented it on the beach during a day trip to Little Cayman. Chrisley's verdict on the ring: everything she wanted.

Her love life before that was public too. She had dated Robert Shriver for two years before they split in 2025.

How she met Galanis is less clear. Parade, citing CBS News, reports that he contacted her after her parents received their pardons and the conversation turned romantic. Todd and Julie Chrisley were pardoned by Trump in May 2025.

What hasn't been reported yet?

Quite a bit. None of the coverage reviewed gives a due date or a wedding date. Nor has Galanis spoken publicly, as far as those reports show. Parade says his past is drawing scrutiny. Chrisley, for now, is controlling the narrative herself.

More to Know

Fertility backstory: After an endometriosis diagnosis, Chrisley said in April 2026 that she would freeze her eggs. In October she revealed she and Galanis had decided to create embryos together.

Reporting trail: Outlets named Galanis after the announcement, citing People and Us Weekly confirmations. Chrisley herself had only used "J" and "Jason."

Age gap: Galanis is 56 and Chrisley is 29, a 27 year difference.

The mystery is solved, the questions aren't. Chrisley has publicly embraced Jason Galanis as her partner and the father of her first child, while his fraud conviction and Trump-era clemency keep the story in the headlines. Business Fortune asks readers to expect more details from her podcast and Instagram, since she has been the one breaking the news.
