Savannah Chrisley Praises Much Older Boyfriend: ‘Age Gap Relationships Are The New …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Reality TV star and podcaster Savannah Chrisley has a new man!

Even though she is not a good person and has declared her own sibling an enemy with cult-like fervor, many have kept up with the ups and downs of her love life.

Savannah’s new boyfriend is apparently much older than she is. Old enough that she had to clarify that he’s younger than her notorious father.

Daddy might not like it, but Savannah says that age gaps are the next big thing in relationships.

Todd likes the guy, but not the age gap

During the Monday, June 15 episode of the Whine Down podcast, Savannah spoke to host Jana Kramer about her current relationship.

Savannah’s current boyfriend has not been identified. She has shared only three major things about him.

The first is that he is significantly older than she is — though, she insists, younger than her father.

(Despite appearances, Savannah is only 28 years old. Her father, Todd Chrisley, is 57, over twice her age.)

The second is that he is some sort of Washington insider. And the third is that her dad is “not too fond” of their age gap, even though Todd allegedly “loves” the guy in question.

“Age gap relationships are the new thing,” Savannah then decreed.

She predicted: “You’re going to see it everywhere.”

Savannah insisted: “There are all these couples that are huge age gap relationships, but it just works. It’s insane.”

She gushed: “[In age gap relationships], you’re not dealing with insecurity.”

Savannah continued: “For me, I’m not dealing with the insecurity of a younger guy who’s trying to keep up. Honestly, it’s the healthiest relationship I’ve ever been in.” You know what? We don’t doubt that last part.

He’s not intimidated by her ‘success’

Savannah continued to sing the praises of her much-older boyfriend without naming him or identifying his age.

She described him as “the calmest, sweetest human being in the entire world.”

“He’s my biggest cheerleader,” Savannah gushed.

She opined: “He’s not intimidated by my success, which is so great.”

Yes, not every man has the emotional maturity to date a … let’s check our notes here … a podcaster.

Savannah claimed: “I feel like so many women in today’s day and age are the primary breadwinners for their family, and they feel like they have to dim their light in order to make their partner feel better.”

She declared: “And I’m like ‘no.’”

(For context, Savannah’s frame of reference is likely heavily influenced by the conservative culture of her family, so she sees a very specific and narrow slice of humanity.)

“First off, he does way better than I do,” Savannah noted. “And I love that because I’m like, ‘You’re not intimidated by me. You think what I do is great. You don’t try to stifle me.’”

Finally, she’s found a man unintimidated by her podcasting career. She also feels that he’s “the one.” Well, unless she develops higher standards than not being an insecure man-baby, maybe he will be.

WATCH: ACM’s OUR COUNTRY Series Premieres Jo Dee Messina’s Performance Of Aerosmith’s ‘Dream On’

Jo Dee Messina is the latest artist to be featured in the Academy of Country Music’s new premium digital series OUR COUNTRY™. The stripped-down music video premieres today with the country star’s rendition of Aerosmith’s “Dream On.”

With her performance, the songstress stays true to the mission of the just-launched series, which aims to celebrate “the music, memories, and stories that define Country Music” by creating “a powerful musical tribute to America’s past, present and future.”

She brings her traditional country sound to the 1973 rock classic, backed only by two guitarists. Stripping the song down, Messina delivers a softer take on the power ballad while still maintaining its emotional strength as she showcases her wide vocal range. The result is a more vulnerable rendition of “Dream On” that highlights her ability to command a song.

Messina explains to ACM that she opted to sing the Aerosmith classic as an opportunity to step outside of her typical country sound while paying tribute to a fellow Massachusetts-born band whose music played a role in her childhood.

“I remember being a little kid and hearing this. I grew up outside of Boston so for me to be able to sing an Aerosmith song, first of all, is an honor. And second of all, it’s scary because if you don’t do a good job, then you can’t ever go back home,” she said with a laugh.

Beyond the performance itself, Jo Dee Messina went on to share her belief that music serves as a powerful outlet for self-expression.

“I think music in general, no matter what the format or the genre, it kind of gives us a voice,” Messina continued. “It gives our feelings of voice or our life, our voice, or our trials of voice. And so I think whether we sing it or we listen to it, it gives us a chance to be heard.”

That perspective perfectly sums up the mission of OUR COUNTRY™. According to ACM, the series was designed as a way to connect artists and listeners across generations, highlighting unity, heritage, and the genre’s lasting impact on American storytelling. Each artist delivers an acoustic interpretation of a classic song of their choosing while also taking part in candid conversations that blend personal storytelling with reimagined hits. The series also explores themes of identity, inspiration, and connection, showing how music continues to bring people together while honoring the past and spotlighting the future of the genre.

OUR COUNTRY™ is about more than performance — it’s about connection,” said Lauren Burchett, Academy of Country Music Head of Strategic Partnerships & Revenue. “This series gives artists the space to share the songs and stories that shaped them while reminding audiences of Country Music’s history and its unique ability to unite people through shared experiences, emotion, and storytelling.”

Jo Dee Messina is the third artist featured in the series, which launched with Wyatt Flores and later showcased Kaitlin Butts. Each installment combines stripped-down performances with candid conversations, allowing artists to reflect on the music, memories, and experiences that have influenced both their lives and careers.

The complete lineup includes:

  • Wyatt Flores performing The Fray’s “How to Save a Life”
  • Kaitlin Butts performing The Steeldrivers’ “If It Hadn’t Been for Love”
  • Jo Dee Messina performing Aerosmith’s “Dream On”
  • Thelma & James performing “You’re the One That I Want” from Grease
  • Jackson Dean performing Uncle Lucius’ “Keep the Wolves Away”
  • Craig Campbell performing Clint Black’s “Killin’ Time”

Marshawn Kneeland: Late NFL Star’s Girlfriend Gives Birth to His Son

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Back in November of 2025, Dallas Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland died by suicide at the age of 24.

Shortly thereafter, we learned that his longtime girlfriend, Catalina Mancera, was pregnant with Kneeland’s first child.

Now, seven months after the tragic loss of a beloved and promising young man, there’s a silver lining:

Catalina took to social media today to announce that she’s welcomed a baby boy named Makhai.

Mancera shared a series of emotional photos and videos documenting the arrival of her son.

“My favorite gift from you,” Mancera wrote alongside one post honoring the late NFL player.

The newborn arrived on June 11, marking a bittersweet milestone for a family that has spent the past several months navigating grief while preparing for a new life.

As fans may recall, Kneeland died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound on November 5, 2025, just days after scoring his first NFL touchdown for the Cowboys.

His death shocked teammates, coaches, and fans across the league.

One week later, Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer revealed that Mancera was pregnant with the couple’s first child. At the time, he also announced the creation of the Marshawn Kneeland Memorial Fund to help support Mancera and the baby.

“We want to make sure she is taken care of, and the baby is taken care of for the rest of their lives,” Schottenheimer said during a press conference announcing the fund.

Throughout her pregnancy, Mancera frequently shared updates with followers while paying tribute to Kneeland’s memory.

In December, she posted an emotional message to her unborn son, writing that she had dreamed of building a family with Kneeland long before she learned she was expecting.

More recently, she offered fans a glimpse inside her baby shower celebration, thanking friends and loved ones for helping her through what she described as an incredibly difficult season of life.

Now, after months of anticipation, that journey has culminated with the arrival of baby Makhai.

Alongside photos of the newborn, Mancera shared a video showing Kneeland’s reaction when she first told him she was pregnant, a moment that has taken on even greater significance in the wake of his death.

While Makhai will grow up without ever knowing his father personally, it’s clear that Kneeland’s memory will remain a central part of his life.

And judging by the outpouring of support from Cowboys fans, teammates, and loved ones over the past seven months, neither Mancera nor her son will have to navigate this difficult chapter alone.

Josh Duggar Prison Transfer was RETALIATION, Attorney Claims

Reading Time: 2 minutes

At the very end of May, Josh Duggar was transferred to a new prison without explanation.

Quickly, longtime Duggar watchers began spinning theories.

Did he have a serious illness that the medical center could provide? Had he broken some sort of rule and required higher security?

Josh’s attorney initially believed this to be a routine transfer. He no longer believes that — and says that it was retaliation.

Retaliation!

Last month, the disgraced former reality star was transferred from FCI Seagoville in Seagoville, Teaxas to FMC Forth Worth in, you guessed it, Forth Worth.

Previously, Josh’s attorney Beau Brindley brushed off the news.

He simply said that his client was fine, calling it a “routine” transfer.

There were questions. Many people simply did not believe it.

It turns out that Brindley himself no longer believes that.

Brindley now tells TMZ that he believes that Josh’s transfer was far from “routine.”

Rather, he believes that this was deliberate and targeted retaliation by the Bureau of Prisons.

According to Brindley, the BOP took this punitive route because Josh and his attorney had pointed out two big issues with the mail system at Seagoville during court hearings.

(As we previously reported, Josh’s court battle has included an argument that his late filing should have counted because he submitted it before the deadline, even if the court didn’t receive it until much later.)

Brindley did not specify about the prison mailing system further.

The ‘routine transfer’ was allegedly anything but routine

However, Brindley did confirm that he spoke to his client on Friday, June 12.

During that conversation, Josh confirmed that he was “not sick with any illness” despite the transfer.

FMC Fort Worth caters primarily to inmates who are battling serious ailments and require inpatient care.

According to Brindley, Bureau of Prisons officials called it a “routine transfer” even while offering no explanation.

It was, apparently, a very unpleasant experience.

Josh is going to be in prison until February 2033.

Yes, that is months later than his original 2032 release date.

Is he a disgraced criminal, unworthy of civil protections while incarcerated? Or is he a victim of an unjust system that can effectively do whatever it wants to an unsympathetic and powerless prison population?

Both … or neither. Whatever Anna may think, Josh is guilty and utterly depraved. But the prison system is also subject to obvious corruption. These days, that is especially true of federal prisons.

Josh is irredeemable, but all prisoners should be treated at a minimum level of decency appropriate for someone who was falsely accused and convicted. Even though Josh was not.
