The Life of Shanann Watts
The Life of the Shanann Watts & Angels
Shanann Watts the beautiful all American girl that had a dream of a bigger and better life for n ot only herself but her girls and her unborn Son Niko Lee Watts. Shanann had always been a fighter and was never scared to follow her heart an go after her dreams, No Matter how hard the fight and how big the struggle. Shanann at only 34 years of age had already accomplished more than half of the women in her age category at such an young age. Shanann an resident of North Carolina had been previously married to an well known attorney in North Carolina and was married for around 3 yrs, Shanann discovered this marriage just wasn't for her and began to push herself away from the marriage, and eventually they divorced. Shanann soon after a failed marriage found out that she had an autoimmune disease called Lupus, this can be very frightening for a young woman in the prime of their life. Shanann may had looked ok from the outside but inside she was feeling down, and depressed about how the events in her life were taking place. Shanann knew deep inside she wasn't gonna let her illness and failed marriage determine who she was and the outcome of her life and she set out on a journey to find ways to better help her fight this battle. Shanann joined numerous support groups for Lupus patients and learned how to live life again and fight this disease head on and not let it control nor take over her life. Shanann had lost many friends that didn't understand her sickness but had gained so many more through the Lupus foundation, these friends would become more like family to her and guide her down the road she wanted in life.
While learning to cope with horrors of Lupus and creating and joining support groups for this horrible disease, Shanann a short while later discovered she had fibromyalgia, another auto immune disease that without the proper treatment and motivation could take control of ones life and control their quality of life. Shanann again being the woman she was didn't let this take her life away, she worked hard and paid for her own Home in North Carolina. Shanann had a close relationship with her parents and her brother, whom of course were always their to support Shanann in her down times. Shanann was the type of lady that never wanted the world to see her falling apart on the inside so she always played that happy go lucky lady for her everyone she came in contact with, except her close relatives, they knew what was going on in their daughters life. Which is what made this whole Crime a puzzle to them, they couldn't see the problems in their daughters relationship and couldn't fathom what could had caused this Horrific Tragedy!
Back to the life of Shanann, while belonging to many support groups and charities Shanann had made all new friends and family. While struggling with self confidence and her own problems, Shanann had a friend, who was a mutual friend of Chris Watts, and had recommended him as a friend on FB to Shanann, she quickly deleted this recommendation saying to herself I don't need another man in my life I have too much to do and with her illness she didn't have time. So the couple had met
on Facebook in 2010 after Shanann was diagnosed with a health condition that her brother identified as lupus, and after Shanann said she quit her job of nine years as a consequence of her condition.
Chris and Shanann began to talk, then eventually they would hang out and go out to dinner. They had developed a friend ship that was falling closer and closer into the relationship range. Shanann said they had so many things in common like, they both Loved Metallica, they both loved the Steelers, just so much to talk about and do together, so they ended up spending a great deal of time together. Shanann before she let herself fall to fast for CW, would drag Chris to her doctor appointments just so he could see what her life was like and how these illnesses affected her quality of life, but this did not scare Chris in the least, she even stood him up a few times when she was feeling down. Chris Watts hang right in their and would do things for Shanann like rub her feet when she was in pain, or rub her back. How could she not fall in love with this man! She gave him every possible way out and a reason and he stuck by her side like no one else had ever done. Soon their relationship spiraled and they were engaged to be married.
Shanann was In Love and her family was so very happy for her, throwing an engagement dinner and inviting friends and family, but Christopher's family wasn't as happy nor enthused about this relationship or the engagement. Shanann wanted to bad for them to just like her, and love her. Shanann would try even with Chris's older sister trusting her with the invitations to send out, this would prove that she was in conspiracy to go against anything that was to do with supporting Shanann's wishes. The day of the dinner Chris's mom cooked lots of things but they were all full of Gluten, Shanann was allergic to gluten and they knew this it was a good thing that Shanann's mom had made food as well that her daughter could eat, they also clearly hadn't sent out invitations to the people Shanann had clearly made invites for. This was noticed when only members of the immediate family would show up for the engagement. Shanann and her mom knew then that they were both against the relationship of Chris and Shanann.
.
In 2013 Chris and Shanann had chosen to become husband and wife, and had planned the special day with invites to all friends and families to both sides of their family. Only Chris's Grandma and Uncle showed up on Chris side of the family and No sign of his mom, dad, or sister ever came about. You know this had to bother both the two love birds especially Chris, he was particularly close with his father Ronnie Watts, he looked up to his dad in so many ways. They didn't let this reuin their big day and went on with their vowels to become Husband and Wife , after all they were in Love and your not marrying the parents anyway.
Soon their after Chris and Shanann decided to move to Colorado, where Chris would leave his job as a Mechanic and join the Anadarko Petroleum company in Fredrick Colorado. This seemed like a great idea and their would be good money to be made by Chris of at least 90k a year. Shanann and Chris flew down to Colorado for a week to meet Chris's new boss and he would show Chris where he would be working and also take Chris and Shanann around to show houses they could afford on Chris's income. Shanann wanted more and dreamed bigger so they ended up purchasing an newer home that was being built were they could choose how they wanted the layout and furnishings of their new $480,000 home. Shanann and Chris flew back to NC to take care of some things and in a rush left some things undone. She sold her home and moved back to Colorado where they would stay with friends for about an year, while their new home was being built. Shanann went shopping for top dollar furniture for her new home, she wanted the finer things in life, and quickly blew through the money from selling her new home. Chris and Shanann's spending habits proved to be quiet costly
after all she had an expensive taste and big dreams.
After moving into their home when it was done, they were happy to start a new life and have a family of their own. Not long after moving into the home Shanann and Chris would be in debt over their head and with them both working would end up filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection in from $147,256 July 2015, claiming liabilities that totaled $448,820. Wow that was a huge sum of debt. When they filed for bankruptcy, Shanann worked at Children’s Hospital Colorado, earning a monthly salary of close too $2,977, but the couples income combined for some reason had been dwindling from from $147,256 in 2013 to $90,789 in the year 2014 and then down to $40,491 at the time of their 2015 filing. Medical bills and Credit card bills on top of their $400,000 dollar homes mortgage seemed to be the culprit. Even with the couple drowning in debt Shanann would not let this get her down, as she had not let anything else in her life get her down or in the way of her dreams. At the time of the filing, Chris and Shanann, in which were married on Nov. 3, 2012, were the parents of only one daughter, Bella, who was 1 year old at the time. This was one of Shanann's biggest motivation.
Shanann later would take a job in direct marketing as a seller of health supplements with a company called Lev-el (thrive) , a move that gave her the independence to work from home or anywhere she wanted while caring for and traveling with her kids as you posted throughout her social media on both Facebook and Instagram. Her Career change also allowed her to not only work from home and be with her family but get out of debt, travel all over the world such as New Orleans, Toronto and Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, and be able to afford the things she wanted and so much deserved in life. Just last June in 2018 her and Chris traveled to San Diego and this would be their 6th paid vacation from her at home business (wouldn't that be nice). Their next paid vacation that was planned was An October 2018 work trip to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico for her and Chris. Not knowing that the man, that she so highly praised on her social media, would be the very man to take it all away, and this trip would never happen. ( Let me say to us on the outside this looks to be a happy normal healthy relationship getting to fulfill their dreams and travel, but no one really ever knows what is going on in the inside behind closed doors). At the bottom of this page I will post an abuse hotline for anyone who may be in a domestic violence situation and needs help.
In all this excitement just a little over a year after the birth of their Oldest and only daughter at this time Bella Marie Watts whom was born Dec, 17 2013 , came a second daughter Celeste Cathryn Watts, on July 17, 2015. This little darlin angel brought so much Joy and Light into the home of this family. Bella loved her little sister and was hands on in wanting to help take care of her new baby sister. With the growth of their family and Shananns at home job taking off the family seemed to be ecstatic and very happy. They had the all American Dream, a new home, 2 beautiful girls and what everyone thought to be a very happy healthy and loving relationship. What many people want to know was all this joy and happiness a put on? From what I had watched myself their were no problems in the couples relationship until June of 2018 when Nickole Kissinger would come into Chris's Life, and start a wirl wind of problems in this happy relationship. (we will discuss NK in the next blog). Now Chris began seeing this girl whom he worked with at Anadarko Petro. as a safety person for the company. The first week of July Shanann had already planned a 6week long vacay to visit family of both hers and Chris in North Carolina where the couple had formerly lived before moving to Colorado. Chris would not be coming until the last week to be with his family due to work scheduling. Shanann had the opportunity because she was her own boss. Prior to her trip to North Carolina Shanann had revealed to Chris that they were going to be expecting their 3rd Child, Now remember it was hard for Shanann to conceive and she had to do fertility treatments because of her illness. Chris in videos seemed to be very happy with the announcement or was he? Video Here ----> Shananns announcment <3. To me it seemed to be a little iffy that he was happy due to the clinching of his jaw if you watch close enough. Was this a sign of troubles?
Lots of people suspect that Chris didn't want this baby from the beginning and some of the text to Shanann's friends would receive from her would suggest other wise.
Shanann flew out to North Carolina were she would be staying week days with her family and Weekends with Chris's family. Shanann wanted to desperately wanted to let her babies meet her brother Frankie and Chris's sister in which they had never met prior to this trip. This would prove to be a disaster because we all know Cindy Watts hated Shanann from day one. While attending a little get together with Chris family and nieces and cousins, Shanann asked that their be no tree nuts any were close to the girls as they both had allergies to these types of nuts. Bella's wasn't as severe as CeCe's and just a touch from someone who had ate these types of nuts could put little CeCe in Anaphylactic shock. Cindy refused to let Shanann have her way and continued to give out these on ice cream the day of the get together. Shanann quickly called Cindy out and she refused to listen and as Shanann walked back into the kitchen as Cindy went outside saw a bowl of nuts on the counter that wasn't their just a few min prior. (weird huh, it was almost as though she wanted to hurt Shanann at any cost). Shanann, was frustrated, hurt, and angry and called her father Frank Rzucek to come and pick her up from the Watts family home. Being a mom myself I understand how she felt and I would be very mad as well. How could a grandma do something like this to their grand child? Text show that Shanann had text Chris to let him know what happened and Chris proved to be taking his wife side, but also defending his mom. Chris wasn't really close with his mom but he looked up to his dad so this had put a wedge in the two men, which was devastating for Chris. Shanann seemed to be really trying and worried about her relationship at this time as well, saying Chris was acting strange. (in text to friends), She was doing a great job of keeping all problems out of sight of her mom, dad and brother.
The last week their is the week Chris would arrive, still being a little pushed away and too himself Chris was sleeping on the couch and him and Shanann didn't seem so cozy which brought out questions, from her family. Shanann played it off that it was just stress from what was going on with his family and his dad. The family over looked it at this point and went on with their vacation. On a trip out to the beach Shanann and Chris took one vehicle with the girls, and her mom and dad took another and Shananns mom noticed, Chris driving erratically and very fast and again asked Shanann about it where she again played it off he was just upset with his dad. Chris did however go spend time at his family home without Shanann and the girls because Shanann (rightfully so) was worried about her kids well being.. Any good mom would be, I know I would be. Shananns mom Sandra, tried to convince Shanann to stay and not go home but Shanann said Chris's health insurance was much better than hers and that she needed to return for the health coverage.(Shananns pregnancy's were always considered High Risk) .

The first week of August when Shanann and Chris returned home from North Carolina, their relationship seemed to still be on the down hill flow, Shanann had a trip for two days with her company the weekend of August 13th in which she was hesitant to go on, she wanted to stay and work on her marriage but Chris convinced her to go ahead and go, promising they would work on their relationship and talk it out. Did Chris have these murders planned out? Did he need Shanann to go, so he could set things in motion? These are questions from all of us looking in at the horrific Crime. Shanann didn't enjoy her trip at all, friends said she wasn't the person she usually was and didn't even want to eat. Chris on the other hand was hiring baby sitters and living his life as a bachelor, Shanann said, he was going on dates with NK, and buying her dinner, and Shanann was observant of the cost of meals Chris had been having. Shanann would ask Chris for pics of the girls, I believe she was worried about their safety, Chris had also told her he didn't want the baby she was pregnant with, she had to cancel the Gender Reveal because of this, she didn't want to have to put on a fake smile for all their friends. In one convo Shanann had said she didn't feel safe with Chris anymore. She said he didn't want to touch her intimately, and they always had a good romantic and sexual relationship prior to her going to North Carolina. Shanann had suggested marriage counseling, she wanted to save her marriage. Shanann confided in friends, and would ask for help and for advice, to which they were even surprised. While on her trip Shanann made an doctor app. for the day she would return home. (unfortunately she wouldn't make it.)
The following is one of the Pictures Shanann had received while away on her last trip with Le-vel and her friends of the company. I would find it a little unsettling as well. This picture confused Shanann as well. We do know Chris had also sent this pic to NK, and she said you should send this to Shanann, who would want to do this to a pregnant woman, with a high risk pregnancy.
Shanann's flight was delayed and she was late getting home on August the 16th. Now the doorbell Cam shows that Shanann was last seen when her friend Nikki dropped her off at 1:58am. She would never bee seen by friends or family again. Their are a lot of theories on this tragic and horrific case. We all want to know what happened between the hours of 2:00am and 5:15am that morning before Chris left the house. We know that her friend Nikki became worried when she couldn't get hold of Shanann, and she became even more worried when she went to the home and the car was their, Shanann's shoes were still sitting just inside the door, and the door was locked from the inside. The girls wasn't even taken to school, nor did she make her 10am OB appointment. Suspicion grew from Nikki when no one had saw her, but Chris could only say she was going on a play date with a friend, but couldn't say what friend, and why didn't she take the car seats? Why would someone that worked from her phone not answer her phone for hours? This is when Nikki done the right thing and called the cops to do a welfare check, only to learn, Shanann wasn't inside the home, her purse, the kids meds, her phone everything was still inside the home.
I just want to take a moment to say RIP sweat lady and to your little Angels, Bella, CeCe, & Niko may you find happiness and light wherever you are, your memories will always bring light to so many people and you will Never be fogot.
