The two reality tv stars looked back at their dating days especially when they first met. In the recent April 25 episode of Savannah’s “Unlocked” podcast which was titled “My Gay Ex-Lover,” Savannah shared that she took one look at Colton and knew he was gay.
“When we met for the first time, I knew you were gay. Like, I knew it.” She went on to share that their meeting happened when she was fresh out of her relationship with ex Luke Kennard.
“It was the ACM Awards. It was after Luke Kennard and I broke up, I was like, ‘Alright, screw this.’ You know how it goes. You go through a breakup.” Coincidentally, Colton was also fresh out of his relationship with ex Aly Raisman so he quickly chipped in “I was coming off of a breakup too, and I was just like, ‘Oh, why not. Let’s go see.'”

Colton concurred with Savannah and jokingly said, “When I say, ‘It’s not you, it’s me,’ I truly mean that, and obviously, I’ve proven that at this point.” However, their lack of connection wasn’t the only reason the two separated so fast. Savannah’s dad Todd Chrisley also had a hand in fastening their breakup.
Colton told the “Growing Up Chrisley” star, “I remember riding to the carpet with your dad and he leans over and he goes, ‘Son, my daughter is not ready for a man like you.’ And I was like, ‘Todd, I’m not ready for your daughter either.’ I didn’t say that, but I just remember him saying that to me.”
Two years after the two broke up, Colton went on to become the lead in “The Bachelorette” season 23. Two more years after, Colton came out as gay.

He continued, “And for me, I’ve ran from myself for a long time, I’ve hated myself for a long time. I’m gay and I came to terms with that earlier this year and have been processing it.”
