Savannah Chrisley’s Fiancé Jason Galanis and Todd: The Surprising Prison Connection Revealed

Shared time behind bars

Jason Galanis and Todd Chrisley served time at Federal Prison Camp in Pensacola, Florida, before their fraud convictions were pardoned by President Donald Trump. Galanis was sentenced in 2020 to 15 years for his role in two fraud schemes, including one involving a Native American tribal entity.

Galanis was also ordered to pay nearly $81 million in restitution. The 56-year-old received a pardon in March 2025, two months before Todd, 58, and Julie Chrisley, 53, were pardoned from their sentences related to bank fraud and tax evasion.

Todd had initially received a 12-year sentence, while Julie was sentenced to seven years. They began serving their sentences in January 2023, seven months after their convictions.

How Savannah met Jason

Savannah, 29, said she and Jason first crossed paths in politics while she was working to secure her parents’ freedom. On an Oct. 27 episode of her Unlocked podcast, she recalled finding him attractive when they met.

She said Jason texted her on June 1, 2025, to congratulate her parents on their pardons. They began messaging, and Savannah said their connection grew stronger as they got to know each other.

A proposal in the Cayman Islands

After five months of dating, Jason proposed during a trip to the Cayman Islands. Savannah said he described the ring as an expression of love and told her it could be whatever she wanted it to be.

Savannah called the proposal just right and said she valued the moment they shared. She is pregnant with their first baby together.
