Savannah Chrisley: New Beginnings After Pardoning Parents
The Chrisley Family: From Behind Bars to Behind the Scenes
In a dramatic turn of events, Savannah Chrisley is set to leave her childhood home behind and start fresh in a new chapter of her life. The 27-year-old reality TV star revealed on a recent episode of Hulu special "The Chrisleys: Life After Lockup" that she's trading in her parental responsibilities for a carefree existence in a swanky condo.
For the past two years, Savannah has been shouldering the duties of raising her younger siblings - 19-year-old Grayson and 12-year-old adopted granddaughter Chloe - at her parents' $1.6M estate in Belle Meade, Nashville. But now that Todd and Julie Chrisley have returned to society after serving time behind bars for tax evasion and fraud, Savannah is ready to spread her wings.
"I'm moving into a condo," she exclaimed on the Hulu special. "That's what I keep saying." When asked if she'd miss the luxurious lifestyle of her childhood home, Savannah scoffed, "I'm not gonna miss landscapers, I'm not gonna miss pool people."
Todd Chrisley, the 56-year-old former real estate mogul, chimed in, saying that a house is no longer a priority for his daughter. Maintenance, it seems, was also low on her list of concerns. "I have learned that a house is not a priority to her," he said. "Maintenance is not a priority to her."
Savannah's response? "I was raising kids." The Unlocked podcaster has been shouldering the responsibilities of caring for Grayson and Chloe, who were left in her care when their parents went away.
But don't think for a second that Savannah's exit from her childhood home is without controversy. Her parents' high-profile convictions have sparked heated debate, with some calling out Todd Chrisley's alleged shady business dealings and others defending his innocence.
Todd has been vocal about his own claims of innocence, telling thescholarlynote.com, "I don't have an apology to give you or anyone else over the money that I've made." He added, "I've always told my children that it doesn't matter what someone else's opinion is of you unless it causes you to question who you are at your core. No one's opinion of me has ever caused me to question who I am at the core, so I don't worry about someone else's opinion."
Savannah, meanwhile, has been busy helping her parents navigate their post-prison life. She revealed on the Hulu special that she "educated herself" to better understand the complexities of her parents' legal situation.
Now that they're back in society, the Chrisley family is gearing up for a new reality TV show on Lifetime Network. Todd hinted at plans to acquire a mansion in Charleston, South Carolina, which they'll convert into a hotel. Sounds like business as usual for this eccentric Georgia clan!
Fans of the Chrisleys first got to know them through their hit USA Network show "Chrisley Knows Best," which aired for 10 seasons before moving to Peacock for four seasons on "Growing Up Chrisley." And now, with Savannah set to start her own chapter in life, it's clear that this family is far from finished making headlines.
Grayson Spills the Tea
Savannah's younger brother Grayson recently shared a hilarious Instagram story featuring footage of himself and Dad Todd shopping for groceries together. "Dad walking around a grocery store is my favorite animal," he captioned the clip, adding, "He has no clue where anything is and is basically here for emotional support."
It seems like the Chrisley family is ready to take on their next adventure - and we can't wait to see what's in store!
