Now that Chase Chrisley announced his engagement to fiancée Emmy Medders, fans are curious how the two fell in love and want to know more about the lovely lady who has stolen the Chrisley Knows Best star’s heart. The two began dating over the summer of 2020, and Chase popped the big question in October 2022 after the couple got back together following a brief split. 

“I am the luckiest man in the world, being able to call you mine forever is a blessing straight from God,” Chase captioned a heartfelt Instagram post at the time. “You are the sunshine when it’s dark, you are the rain when it’s dry. I love you more than life itself, and can’t wait to live forever with you! To you my love! Thank you for taking me FOREVER!!”

Emmy Medders Has a Big Family

Based on her Instagram account, it looks like Emmy is just as family-oriented as Chase!

On a less light-hearted note, both Chase and Emmy have experienced tragedy in their families. In 2017, Chase’s sister Savannah Chrisley got into a very serious car accident that left her severely injured. In August 2018, Emmy’s father went through something similar. 

“A year ago today my precious daddy survived a head-on collision,” she previously captioned a heartfelt tribute on Instagram. “Thank you, Jesus, for allowing me more time with him. I love you forever and always, Daddy, and I’m so blessed to have you as my father!” 

Emmy Medders is From the South

Most of Emmy’s posts appear to be in Atlanta, Georgia. It also appears she went to college at the University of Georgia and majored in Journalism, Communications and Media Studies.

Emmy Medders Has Worked a Few Jobs

According to her LinkedIn profile, Emmy is a personal assistant but has also worked as a communications specialist and copywriter. 

Todd Chrisley Approves of Emmy:

As most Chrisley Knows Best fans know, Todd’s approval is not easy to come by — and he’ll admit it. After Chase posted a sweet snap with Emmy, the reality TV patriarch commented, “Be still my heart,” to which one fan replied, “Oh, snap!!! We got a Todd ‘like’!!!”

“And I don’t give those ‘likes’ easily, my friend,” he replied. Prior to Emmy, Chase dated, Brooke Noury, and let’s just say, Todd was not shy about sharing his true feelings.

“Listen, I’m not gonna say anything bad about anyone. If I don’t like ya, I don’t like ya. But my child, Chase, is broken-hearted over the fact that he’s single from someone that none of us like,” the Georgia native explained during a May 2018 confessional on Chrisley Knows Best. “I’m not going to lie to you, that gives me great comfort.”

Chase Chrisley and Emmy Medders Briefly Split

The former reality star and his lady hit a bump on the road in their romance when Chase confirmed to Life & Style in August 2021 they had split. 

“We just thought it would be healthier and better for both of us,” he explained at the time. “I think that it just came down to we kind of looked at like what we wanted in life, and right now, it’s not matching up.”

However, their break didn’t last too long, as they were spotted spending time together by the spring of 2022. That May, Chase confirmed they were officially back on after they took a trip to Florida together.
