Savannah Chrisley’s ex-fiancé Nic Kerdiles is dealing with mental health after a reported suicide attempt
Earlier this month, the former professional hockey player — who played for the Anaheim Ducks from 2014 to 2017 before being drafted by the Winnipeg Jets in 2018 — reflected on making the most of each day in a series of Instagram photos from time spent with his family back home.
“Time in this life passes faster every day. I will never take these days with them for granted again and my advice is the same for everyone else,” he wrote in the description.
Kerdiles was previously engaged to Chrisley, 26, after they started dating in November 2017.
In July 2020, Savannah shared with PEOPLE that the engagement and wedding were off. She explained her and Kerdiles’ decision: “Nic and I have been together for two and a half years. We’re just trying to find our place in this world.”

“We work on ourselves to be better for each other. I like to say that our relationship is unique and we kind of march to our own beat,” she said.
While the reality star said she and Kerdiles are still together, she felt they “jumped into things too quickly” and now “want to make sure we’re both in a healthy place.”
In September, Chrisley shared in an Instagram post that the couple had “decided to break up.”
The Unlocked The podcast host wrote at the time, “There’s no hate between the two of us…and honestly…that makes the breakup even harder. We have nothing but love, respect and admiration for each other, but it’s time to move forward individually.”
