Savannah Chrisley shared an emotional tribute to her ex-boyfriend Nic Kerdiles on the one-month anniversary of his death.

"It's hard to believe that an entire month has passed since we said goodbye to you," Chrisley, 26, expressed on her Instagram Story on Monday, October 23. She accompanied her words with a picture of Kerdiles enjoying a meal in Nashville.

In another photo, Kerdiles can be seen holding Savannah's 9-year-old niece, Chloe, who happens to be the daughter of Savannah's half-brother, Kyle Chrisley. Savannah added an emotional caption to the picture, recalling a sweet memory of Chloe saying, "We bought ham and cheese croissants today and Chloe said, 'I only like these because Nic would always order them.'" She concluded her caption with a crying emoji.

Savannah's parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, became the custodians of Chloe in 2016 due to Kyle's addiction issues. Following Todd and Julie's imprisonment for tax evasion, Savannah took on the responsibility of being the guardian for her younger brother Grayson, aged 17, and Chloe in November 2022.

To conclude her tribute, Savannah shared a video of Kerdiles doing laundry. She captioned the clip, "I believe you're watching from above, with laughter in your eyes. We all long for your presence... #IfICouldGoToHeavenForADay."

Kerdiles, aged 29, tragically passed away on September 23 in a fatal motorcycle accident in Nashville. TMZ reports that Kerdiles supposedly disregarded a stop sign and collided with a BMW sedan. Both Kerdiles and the other driver were taken to a nearby hospital by the police, but sadly, Kerdiles was declared dead shortly thereafter.

Later on, Savannah expressed her condolences for her former partner on Instagram. She wrote, "Today, heaven received the most exquisite angel... I long for you and I hold onto our final 'I love you' messages forever."

She asked Kerdiles to send her a sign, saying it could be in the form of a ham and cheese crepe, pasta with white sauce, or even his favorite carrot cake. She expressed their strong love and anticipation of riding bikes along the heavenly beaches together one day.

Savannah and Kerdiles began their relationship in November 2017 after meeting online. Kerdiles, a former NHL player who retired in 2018, proposed to Savannah on Christmas Eve of the same year. However, in September 2020, they decided to end their relationship after postponing their wedding.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Savannah wrote, "Nic and I have chosen to part ways. There are no ill feelings between us... and to be honest, it's even harder to say goodbye knowing that. We have nothing but love, respect, and admiration for each other, but now it's time for us to focus on our individual paths moving forward."

The couple briefly reconciled in 2021 before permanently ending their relationship later that year.

Since then, Savannah has moved on with Robert Shiver, a former NFL player who gained media attention earlier this year due to an alleged coordinated murder-for-hire plot against him by his estranged wife, Lindsay Shiver. Lindsay, 36, was arrested in August for her alleged role in the murder plan but is currently released on bail and awaiting trial.

Earlier this month, Savannah exclusively told We that “everything is great” with Robert, 38. “I’m so thankful to just have such a great person in my life,” she added.
