Chrisley Knows Best star Nic Kerdiles opened up about how he survived a suicide attempt with the help of Savannah Chrisley and Todd Chrisley.
“I’m super grateful to be here today,” Kerdiles, 28, who was joined by Savannah, 24, and Todd, 52, said in a lengthy Instagram video on Wednesday, February 2. “I recently went through COVID as well, and now, reading a lot more about it, I kind of understand why this situation might have happened that occurred the other night.”
The former athlete explained that he was on an unspecified medication due to his COVID diagnosis, noting, “I decided to mix alcohol with it to a point that I don’t remember anything that happened that night.”
Kerdiles, who split from Savannah in September 2020, recalled that he was “blacked out” as a result of mixing the medication and alcohol. He had plans to see a friend, who he credited for helping him during the incident.
“If he wasn’t there, I don’t know if I would still be here today to be completely honest,” the Texas native said. “I had a gun by me, and I don’t know where I was at in my mental state, but between the depression, anxiety, the COVID effects, the medication, the alcohol I did something that I never thought I would ever do.”
According to TMZ, law enforcement received a 911 call on Monday, January 31, from a panicked Savannah and Todd about a suicidal individual with a gun. During his Instagram video, Kerdiles shared how “grateful” he was to his ex-fiancée and her father for their support and how he hoped his story “could help somebody else” going through a similar situation.
