Todd Chrisley 'happy to be home' after prison release
Published in Entertainment News
Todd Chrisley is "happy to be home" following his release from prison.
The 'Chrisley Knows Best' star and his wife Julie were jailed in 2023 after being found guilty of 12 counts of tax evasion and fraud with Todd, 54, sentenced to 12 years behind bars and Julie, 50, ordered to serve seven - but they were freed on Wednesday (28.05.25) after being granted a pardon by US President Donald Trump and Todd has now shared his happiness about his release.
In clips captured by his daughter Savannah Chrisley - which she posted on her social media pages - the pair are seen heading out on a shopping trip, with Todd pulling a bag over his head in a bid to avoid being photographed.
In one of the videos, Todd revealed his wife Julie did not come shopping because she's "hiding" at home, adding: "She's smarter than I am."
Todd also declared: "I'm so happy to be home. I'm going to start my skincare routine tomorrow."
It came after Savannah shared a picture of her parent's legs showing the couple together again after a long spell of separation while they were in prison.
She captioned the snap: "Reunited and it feels so good!"
Trump called two of the couple's children - Savannah and Grayson Chrisley - earlier this week to tell them about his intention to pardon their parents. In the call, he told them: "It's a terrible thing, but it's a great thing because your parents are going to be free and clean.
"We'll try getting it done tomorrow, so give them - I don't know them - but give them my regards and wish them well. Wish them a good life."
Grayson told him: "Mr. President, I just want to say thank you for bringing my parents back."
White House spokesperson Harrison Fields said in a statement: "[President Trump is] always pleased to give well-deserving Americans a second chance, especially those who have been unfairly targeted and overly prosecuted by an unjust justice system.
"President Trump called Savannah and her brother from the Oval Office to personally inform them that he would be pardoning their parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, whose sentences were far too harsh."
