As we’re positive you’ve been following, Todd and Julie Chrisley have been convicted of financial institution fraud and tax evasion earlier this 12 months. And in November, the celebrities of USA Network‘s hit reality series Chrisley Knows Best were sentenced to a combined 19 YEARS in prison after being found guilty for financial crimes. Todd is set to serve 12 years in the Federal Prison Camp in Pensacola, Florida, while his wife and the mother of three of his children, Julie, is set to serve seven years at the Federal Correctional Institution in Marianna, Florida. They’ll additionally must serve 16 months probation following their releases. And it’s all set to begin proper after the vacations.
Their grownup son Chase has been comparatively quiet because the sentencing, however he lastly opened as much as sister Savannah Chrisley on Tuesday’s episode of her podcast Unlocked. In the episode, titled Sibling Rivalry & Survival, the 26-year-old defined his silence:
“I don’t owe the public an explanation. I don’t need to explain how I feel to anybody, other than the people that I care about and I love. Obviously, what we have been going through is hell, it is a terrible, terrible situation, but I have to try and find the good, even in the darkest time.”
Of course he doesn’t owe anybody. But he has to count on of us to ask. After all, the household obtained all of the monetary profit from starring on a actuality present — that is the opposite fringe of that sword.

The Growing Up Chrisley star continued on to say he appears like he’s discovered loads from the circumstances:
“And I feel like throughout everything that we have been going through, it has made me appreciate things I did not appreciate as much in the past. It’s made me do a lot of reflecting and figure out who I am as a man and who I wanna be in 10 years, and then 10 years from there and 10 years from there.”
Hopefully not somebody who commits tax fraud. Just sayin’…
Look, we’re removed from the harshest critics right here. The fam made their title taking part in an upstanding Christian household, it was their entire model. So yeah, of us have ideas. But Chase doesn’t care! The actuality star and his fiancée Emmy Medders have made the choice to deal with all the things behind closed doorways, and he says he’s not too involved about what the general public has to say:
“And I think that the one thing that I come to the conclusion that I’m not going to worry about what everybody else, the world is thinking and saying about me. I have to make sure that I’m good, so that I can be good for Emmy. I have to make sure my family is good emotionally and that I am in a place emotionally so I can be there for my loved ones. That’s why I haven’t really said anything on Instagram. I feel like I’ve been doing the work behind the scenes, and I feel like that will pay off and let the work speak for itself.”
But he hasn’t been centered on all his household.
Savannah admitted her personal relationship together with her brother has dwindled by the course of the trial and sentencing:
“I think part of the rift you and I have is there’s just an unspoken tension there and I think from me, it comes from seeing you move on with your life, because Mom and Dad have both said, ‘I don’t want you to stop living your life,’ like, ‘I want you to continue to progress and do the things that you want to do and grow and all those things’. And you’re doing that when it comes to you and Emmy, and for me, I think because I don’t have that, and there’s part of me that feels guilt for moving on in any way shape or form.”
But Chase gave her some severe recommendation. He mentioned it’s time she begins specializing in herself — and her religion — slightly than their mother and father:
“I refuse to give them any more. I cried all I’m crying.”
Whoa! He continued:
“I put my faith in God, and I truly believe to my core that He will prevail, and this situation is not done. You and I both know that. You need to know that you are not by yourself, you are not alone. Whatever happens with Mom and Dad is in God’s hands. You don’t have to go through it by yourself, you don’t have to carry the responsibilities by yourself, you don’t have to do all of this stuff that you have put on yourself and think that you have to do it alone. You don’t. That’s what family is, that’s what I am here for, is to help you, and to help me and to help everyone in our family. You’re not alone. You cannot live the rest of your life trying to please our father. That’s what you have been doing your whole life and your life cannot start until you learn to please you.”
Huh. Sounds like Chase is loads much less occupied with getting Daddy’s approval lately. Can’t say we blame him, contemplating…
He could also be achieved together with his mother and father, however he shortly added that he’ll nonetheless be there for his sis:
“Whatever you need, I got you.”
