During a recent episode of her podcast, “Opening up with Savannah Chrisley,” Chrisley shared that she learned about Underwood’s sexuality years before she came out, per Page Six.
“When we first met, I knew you were gay. Like, I know,” the reality star said, reminding Underwood of meeting her on a date at the 2017 ACM Awards.
He later joked that they had “no connection … anything” during their meeting for “obvious reasons,” seemingly referencing the “Bachelor” alum’s style as the reason.
Underwood joined in on the fun, making clichéd comments often used by people who don’t see the connection to each other.
He said, “When I say, ‘It’s not you, it’s me,’ I really mean it. And obviously, I’ve proven it at this point.”
Chrisley then cracked another joke, saying that, at the time, he was working with the “wrong equipment” to impress Underwood.

Speaking more about Underwood’s sexuality, Chrisley revealed that she told her friend about her suspicions, although the friend refused to believe her.
“I remember watching [my friend] Emily, and I was like, ‘He’s really gay,’” she recalled. “She was like, ‘No, she’s not, Savannah.'”
After realizing that she wasn’t going to make any progress with Underwood at that time, Chrisley looked for a way to leave.
He revealed that he went back to his room at the end of the awards show after telling Underwood he was “really unwell” as an excuse to leave.
However, he ends up hanging out with his friends “and other guys.”
Surprisingly, the admission did not “offend” Underwood, who told her host that she “would do the same thing” in his place.

She also revealed that coming out has made her the “happiest and healthiest” she’s ever been, then explained why she made the decision.
“There was a moment in LA when I woke up, and I didn’t think I was going to wake up,” he shared. “I don’t intend to wake up. I think that was my wake-up call.”
