The violent altercation occurred amid swirling engagement rumors, leaving fans stunned by the sudden turn from social media romance to a domestic violence investigation.
Tragedy Following a Public Proposal
According to reports from TMZ on Friday, April 10, David Landsman—the boyfriend of former reality TV star Lindsie Chrisley—was taken into custody by Woodstock Police. Landsman is currently being held at the Cherokee County Jail on a felony charge of Aggravated Assault by Strangulation.

As the argument escalated, the host of “The Southern Tea” podcast reportedly attempted to walk away to de-escalate the situation. This move allegedly triggered a “fit of rage” from Landsman.
