Savannah’s reasons for leaving the show Special Forces: World's Toughest Test

Savannah Chrisley joined Special Forces: World's Toughest Test season 2, where celebrities take on challenges inspired by military training. However, she chose to leave the show during episode 3 due to personal reasons.

In November 2022, Savannah shared that she had taken custody of her 17-year-old brother, Grayson, and her 10-year-old niece, Chloe, who is the daughter of her half-brother Kyle Chrisley. This development followed her parents’ legal troubles. Todd, 54, and Julie, 50, faced multiple charges, including bank and wire fraud and tax evasion, dating back to 2019.

In June 2022, they were sentenced to 12 and seven years in prison, respectively, and began serving their sentences in separate facilities in December 2022. With her parents away, Savannah had become the legal guardian of her younger brother Grayson, and her niece Chloe. These new responsibilities led her to quit, and she decided her family needed her more than the competition did.

Speaking about her decision to leave, Savannah said to US Weekly in October 2023:

“Life is so short. Do I really want to spend another five days or however long in this environment or am I ready to get home?’ I wanted to be with the kids, I wanted to see my parents..”

She later shared that the "toughest part" of her experience was deciding to leave the competition.
