Like, I knew it!” Savannah said on the Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley podcast. “I mean, for obvious reasons,” Colton replied. “When I say, ‘It’s not you, it’s me,’ I truly mean that.
And obviously I’ve proven that at this point.” “Obviously you’re hot as hell but like there was just like no connection there and I remember looking at [my makeup artist friend] Emily and I was like ‘He’s totally gay!’ she was like ‘No he’s not Savannah,’” she said on the podcast titled “My Gay Ex-Lover.” Savannah then confessed that she told Colton she wasn’t feeling well and was going to go back to her room, but then really went to another hotel to hang out with another guy.
After that date, Colton said his life was a whirlwind. “I filmed three reality shows in one year,” Colton said. “My identity goes from football player to reality television star and I was running from my sexuality so I was happy that my identity was tied into something other than people questioning me about that.” There are several NFL players who have come out over the years, including one player who is currently on an active roster.
