Did Nanny Faye from the Chrisleys die? Rumor debunked as viral TikTok star passes away
TikTok sensation Nanny Faye has tragically passed away at the age of 98. News of the same was made public by her grandson on the video-sharing platform. He revealed that she died in October after battling numerous health conditions.
However, this has led to the misconception that her namesake, reality star Nanny Faye - who is also the mother of Todd Chrisley - has died. That is not the case. She is very much alive and is different from TikToker Nanny Faye.
Fans of the TikTok-favorite grandmother were informed of her passing on December 10, when her grandson took to the social networking site to announce:
“She got her wish. We didn’t get ours. From the very beginning nanny was really ready and wanting to go home and be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She talked about heaven and she didn’t want to go through this journey but was willing to do it. However, her prayers outweighed ours, because we prayed to keep her here.”
Her grandson also shared details of her final moments. He revealed that she had recently undergone two surgeries. Although they were successful, she eventually came down with pneumonia and suffered from “other complications.”
Faye’s grandson went on to add:
"She said, 'Just let me die I’m ready. I want to go home. I want to be with my Jesus. I want to be with my Lord and Savior.””
According to Opoyi, the TikTok star had battled cancer in the past.
