People: Chase & Savannah Chrisley Get Candid about Growing up under the Spotlight

Savannah and Chase Chrisley recently spoke to “People” magazine in promotion of the new season of their reality show, “Chrisley Knows Best.” The siblings opened up about appearing on television from a young age, among other topics.

Being reality stars wasn’t something Chase, 24, and Savannah, 22, chose for themselves. The limelight has come with its own pressures and the pair recently opened up about them.

Chase confessed, "It definitely changed our lives entirely,” adding: "It forced us to grow up fast.” He admitted to making mistakes throughout his journey but admitted that he’s learned how to move on and grow from them.

BEING IN THE PUBLIC EYE

However, making mistakes, even if they’re small, is a bit different for him because everything is done “in the public eye.” For Savannah, being a child star hasn’t been easy too.

FEELING PRESSURE

Savannah admitted: "I’ve put a lot of pressure on myself in order to live this perfect life and not disappoint people." She explained how she’d matured enough to realize that she had to live for herself and not others.

BEING A REALITY STAR AS A TEEN

Savannah and her brother have been television personalities since the inception of “Chrisley Knows Best” on March 11, 2014. She was only 15 at the time and had to deal with the “difficult” task of being a teenager and being in the spotlight.

CALLING OF HER WEDDING

Besides Savannah and Chase, the show features their parents Todd and Julie, their grandmother Nanny Faye, younger brother Grayson, and their niece Chloe. Recently, Savannah called off her wedding and engagement to fiancé, Nic Kerdiles.
