Hundreds of pages of court documents concerning the divorce and custody proceedings of Savannah Hardin's biological parents have shed light on the family's history. WDNG has learned that the relationship between Savannah's parents was, like so many others, complicated and at times, strained. According to some of those documents, Savannah's father Robert Hardin and her biological mother, Heather, shared joint custody of Savannah after divorcing in 2006. Heather, who lives in Florida, served as primary custodial parent. But in May 2011, Robert filed a petition to have that agreement changed. He told the courts that he could provide a more stable environment for Savannah, claiming that her mother's lifestyle was not fit for custody of a child. Custody was eventually granted to Savannah's father. In some of the documents from May 2011, Robert explained medical problems that Savannah had which required continuous treatment. He stated that every three to six months Savannah would visit a urologist in Birmingham. Urologists treat patients with urinary and bladder issues. He also stated in the documents that at that time, Savannah was seeing a therapist once a month. He did not explain why, but did say that she was adjusting well. In those same court records, Heather said she lost custody because she couldn't afford an attorney to fight for custody of Savannah. In a sworn affidavit, she stated that Robert never returned Savannah after a spring break visit. She also claimed that Robert started a crusade in 2009 to prevent contact between her and Savannah.
