A Presidential Pardon Sends the Chrisleys Back Home
Pardoned by Trump, Reality Stars Return Home to Family Strife TOPH’S TAX NIGHTMARES!
Julie and Todd Chrisley had their prison sentences for tax evasion cut short earlier this year after President Trump pardoned his fellow reality-TV stars. Since then, their experience underscores a hard truth about dodging taxes: Even if you bag a presidential pardon, bouncing back isn’t easy. The backstory: In 2024, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the Chrisleys’ 2022 conviction on charges of tax evasion and conspiracy. Julie Chrisley was serving a prison sentence set to end in 2028; Todd was scheduled for release in 2032. After the Chrisleys’ daughter, Savannah, a Trump supporter, complained that the charges against her parents were politically motivated, however, Trump pardoned the couple, saying they had been given “pretty harsh treatment based on what I’m hearing.” Returning to life as usual for the Chrisleys hasn’t been easy, however. Almost immediately, they had to stamp out rumors that they were getting a divorce. Then, in a Lifetime docuseries, the couple saw relatives squabble over issues that erupted during their 2 1/2-year imprisonment. Regarding the tension among family members, Savannah said, “I don’t know if it can ever be repaired, honestly.”
Julie’s mother complained about having to get a job to pay the rent because the Chrisleys hadn’t bought her the townhouse they had promised. The Chrisleys’ son, 19-year-old Grayson, quit playing baseball, citing Julie’s absence at his games. Savannah, 28, who shouldered responsibility for caring for younger family members, complained of problems supervising the Chrisleys’ adopted granddaughter Chloe, 12. Savannah and her brother Chase, 29, locked horns over whether Chase was shirking his share of the bills. Then Chase entered treatment for alcohol abuse.
Asked to comment, Todd Chrisley said in an interview, “To see your children fight … is heartbreaking.” Todd Chrisley was convicted in connection with allegations that he fraudulently obtained more than $36 million in personal loans from Atlanta- area banks. Prosecutors claimed the couple also sought to dodge nearly $500,000 in taxes by hiding income. Now, those charges are history. A presidential pardon cannot be overturned by a subsequent president or the courts.
