“I think what sucks that people really don't prepare you for, is when kids are involved, not only are you grieving the loss of the person you were in relationship with, but you're also grieving the loss of that relationship that you have with those children,” Chrisley shared.

Chrisley said she has “shown up for them on birthdays and holidays” and recalled phone calls “when they were sick” and wanted her there.

"It really sucks,” she added, according to People.

Savannah Chrisley also expressed her frustration over the role she believes Robert Shiver’s estranged wife, Lindsay Shiver, played in their split.

“I don't think I will ever forgive her for what she has put Robert and the boys through. I don't believe that Robert and I would be where we were at today if she wouldn't have caused so much mass destruction," she said.

Shiver is currently involved in legal proceedings with Lindsay, who is awaiting trial for allegedly plotting his murder.
