'Devastated' Savannah Chrisley Taking Ex-Fiancé Nic Kerdiles' Death 'Hour by Hour': 'It's Such a Shock'
Savannah Chrisley is deeply grieving the loss of her ex-fiancé Nic Kerdiles following his tragic passing. A source close to Savannah told RadarOnline.com that his death is "such a shock" to the Chrisley Knows Best star, adding she had nothing but love and respect for him.
Calling this a "delicate situation," the insider shared that Savannah is taking it "hour by hour." The source also said this has been a "devastating" and "hard loss for everyone," as the Chrisleys considered Nic a "family member."
He was even by Savannah's side when she took her father, Todd Chrisley, to prison in January. Her famous parents are serving time in separate prisons after being convicted of fraud.
As this outlet reported, Savannah's ex-fiancé died in a motorcycle crash in Nashville on Saturday around 3:30 AM. Nic passed away from injuries sustained after he ran a stop sign and collided with a BMW in a residential area, police told TMZ.
Law enforcement revealed the driver of the BMW immediately stopped to assist.
He was transported to a nearby hospital and died from his injuries. Nic was only 29 years old. Only hours before his tragic passing, the former NHL star-turned-real estate broker shared an eerie photo of him on his motorcycle with the caption, "Night rider."
RadarOnline.com broke the story — Nic's autopsy was completed and his body was released. The Davidson County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed the former NHL player's official cause of death would be revealed pending toxicology results, which could take up to 8-10 weeks.
