Savannah Chrisley and Colton Underwood discuss their date
Six years ago, Savannah Chrisley and Colton Underwood could have been a match made in reality TV heaven.
They linked up at the ACM Awards, and there were high hopes the duo would become one of the “it” couples. However, one thing stood in the way — Colton’s sexuality.
On her podcast Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley, Savannah recalled telling her friend that she thought Colton was gay. She said, “I remember looking at Emily, and I was like, ‘He’s totally gay.’ She was like, ‘No, he’s not, Savannah.’”
Neither one was interested in pursuing anything further, so she ended the date by saying she wasn’t feeling well and left to hang out with her friends after the awards ended.
Colton Underwood revealed Todd Chrisley reached out to him
During his time in the Bachelor franchise, Colton Underwood appeared on The Bachelorette during Becca Kufrin’s season, was the lead for his own season of the hit dating show, and did a stint in Bachelor in Paradise in between.

While speaking with Savannah Chrisley, Colton revealed that when everything came crashing down, Todd Chrisley reached out to him via text to ask how he was holding up.

Colton is now engaged to Jordan C. Brown, and the two are building their life together, which may include welcoming kids into the world.
While his date with Savannah Chrisley wasn’t good, it seems the two still have mutual respect for one another. They appeared to have a good time while doing the podcast.
