The big question on everyone’s mind: Is Savannah Chrisley dating country singer Matt Stell after her high-profile split from Nic Kerdiles? Savannah, 25, recently gave a candid, heartfelt response

that left fans both relieved and intrigued. During her appearance on SiriusXM’s The Highway late last month, the Growing Up Chrisley star addressed the rumors head-on.

“No, we didn’t date,” she clarified, referring to her ex-fiancé, Nic Kerdiles. The reality star explained that she was still very engaged at the time of her involvement with Matt Stell, 38,

who she had previously starred alongside in his 2018 music video for Prayed for You. “I was still very engaged,” Savannah admitted. According to E! News, the engagement with Nic ended rather quickly, a split that clearly impacted her deeply.

Since calling off her engagement, Savannah revealed that she had gone on a date with Stell, but the connection ultimately stayed in the realm of friendship. “He’s just an awesome person,” she added. “The waters were definitely tested. You got to date to know where you land.”

Savannah didn’t hold back when discussing the complicated mix of past love and personal growth. She admitted she has never rewatched the music video that starred her and Kerdiles. “I don’t even like to hear the song anymore,” she said. Her reasoning is both relatable and bittersweet: “You can’t take people you’re in a relationship with to your favorite restaurants or your favorite vacation spots, because then you might break up and it ruins it.”

Fans of Chrisley Knows Best were first introduced to Nic Kerdiles when he began dating Savannah in November 2017. The pair met on Instagram and quickly became one of reality TV’s most watched couples. They got engaged in April 2019, but by mid-2020, they decided to postpone their wedding. “We made the decision together,” Savannah explained on the Chrisley Confessions Podcast in June 2020. “We both realized that things moved way too fast and we needed to go back to dating. We had to work on things on a different level. We had to dig deeper, and it’s hard.”

Three months later, Savannah publicly announced her split from Kerdiles, emphasizing that there was no ill will between them. “Nick and I have decided to call it quits,” she shared on Instagram. “There’s no hatred between the two of us. In all honesty, that makes saying goodbye even harder. We have nothing but love, respect, and admiration for one another, but it’s time for us to move forward individually.”

Even after the breakup, Savannah remained open to the possibility of reconciliation. In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly in November 2020, she said, “Nick and I were on good terms. We’re both so young and ambitious, and we’re trying to find our way in life. No decision is ever permanent, so you never know what can happen. We have the rest of our lives to figure things out.”

For Savannah, navigating love has never been simple—especially under the glaring eyes of reality TV cameras, millions of fans, and an ever-curious public. Yet, as fate would have it, country singer Matt Stell kept appearing in her world, seemingly at the right moments, and definitely stirring speculation.

It all came to a head backstage at a Nashville charity concert. Savannah, still healing from the heartbreak of her split with Nic, found herself confronting emotions she hadn’t expected. There was Matt Stell, tall, charming, and humble, offering smiles that felt genuine, not performative. Their paths had crossed repeatedly, and the media attention had only intensified the speculation.

Savannah decided to tackle the rumors directly during a taping of her Unlocked Podcast. “Okay, y’all,” she began, her voice soft yet resolute. “Let’s talk about the elephant in the room.” The live audience leaned in. “No,” she laughed lightly, “I am not officially dating Matt Stell.”

She went on to describe the origins of their connection, how their paths had serendipitously crossed, and how natural and comforting it felt to spend time together without expectations or labels. However, she didn’t hide the bittersweet side of their story. The night before, Savannah had attended a charity event where Matt was performing. Hearing Prayed for You live reminded her of the love she once believed in, bringing a flood of memories and unspoken emotions.

After the show, Matt found her backstage. “You okay?” he asked, genuine concern in his voice. Savannah tried to mask her feelings with a simple “Yeah,” but Matt’s presence offered a rare sense of ease. Their conversation lasted hours—about grief, healing, faith, music, and even Nic—showing that Matt didn’t shy away from her past.

By the night’s end, what could have been an awkward goodbye became a tender, unspoken promise. Matt placed a hand over his heart and said, “When you’re ready to smile for real again, I’d be honored to be standing anywhere near you.” There was no pressure, only patience—a gift Savannah hadn’t realized she needed.

Back on the podcast, she reflected on the cautious but undeniable bond they had formed. “Matt is a wonderful guy,” she admitted. “He’s funny, respectful, kind in ways that aren’t loud, but I’m also still healing. I’m figuring out who I am without the chaos, without trying to hold the whole world together. I’m not closing any doors, but I’m not rushing through any either. Real love deserves patience.”

Savannah wasn’t officially dating Matt Stell—but she wasn’t saying no either. The world could speculate, but for now, she was allowing herself to experience hope, laughter, and connection again.

Meanwhile, Matt, listening to the podcast in his truck, was visibly moved. By the time Savannah finished speaking, he was smiling at the windshield, silently acknowledging the possibility of something genuine. Timing, he knew, was everything.

The buzz around Nashville only intensified two days later when paparazzi spotted Savannah and Matt having coffee at a Brentwood café. They weren’t holding hands or sharing a kiss, but the natural ease between them spoke volumes. Fans went wild online, speculating and theorizing, while Savannah calmly messaged Matt: “Looks like Nashville thinks we’re getting married next week. Guess we better pick a cake flavor then 😂. For the record, I like talking to you, too.”

Matt’s reply? Simple, steady, and reassuring: “Good, because I’m not going anywhere.”

So, are they dating? Officially, no. But Savannah Chrisley is rediscovering what it feels like to trust, laugh, and let someone into her life again. Matt Stell isn’t offering a whirlwind romance or tabloid drama—he’s offering stability, kindness, and a safe place for a heart still mending.

Sometimes, that’s how real love begins: quietly, patiently, and with the promise of something beautiful yet unspoken. And Savannah? She’s letting the story unfold on its own terms.
