Todd and Julie Chrisley’s Relationship Timeline: From Reality Fame to Prison—and Now, a New Chapter
Plus a look at life for the couple after they were recently pardoned by President Trump
The world got to know Todd and Julie Chrisley when they welcomed viewers into their life and home on their hit reality show Chrisley Knows Best. The series showcased their eccentric family and day-to-day life, and for years, viewers were entertained by the antics that took place in their household. However, things took a turn for this reality television duo when in 2022, both Todd and Julie were sentenced to 12 and 7 years, respectively, in prison for fraud. While the world assumed it would be quite some time until the Chrisleys saw freedom, the duo got the shock of a lifetime when they learned they had been pardoned by President Trump. Reunited after years apart, the duo shared that seeing each other after all that time, it was as if no time had passed. Here, a look at the relationship and marriage of Todd and Julie Chrisley.
How Todd and Julie Chrisley met
It was in 1996 that the Chrisley couple tied the knot, but before that, Todd was actually married to his high school sweetheart. Todd was first captivated by Julie when he saw her at a friend’s house. “The moment she walked in the room, it’s the only time before and since that anything had ever taken my breath, other than when I walked past a mirror,” the television personality joked to Us Weekly back in 2022. Tying the knot in 1996, it wasn’t long before they expanded their family, Todd already having two children, Lindsie and Kyle, from his previous marriage.
Inside the Chrisley family tree
After getting married, Todd and Julie welcomed three children: Chase, Savannah and Grayson. Additionally, they’ve adopted their granddaughter, Chloe, after her dad Kyle’s struggle with substance abuse. After Todd and Julie began their sentences, it was ultimately their daughter Savannah who most significantly contributed to their release. During the time in which they were incarcerated, the 27-year-old influencer advocated for her parents to politicians and the public, and in the end, it was what led to their pardon.
Life after prison: Todd and Julie reunited
On June 28 and 29, Todd and Julie, accompanied by their children Savannah and Grayson, gave their first interviews since their release, detailing their plans for the future, what their experiences behind bars were like, and what it was like reuniting after so much time apart.
“I was never away from her because she was in my spirit the entire time,” Todd shared on My View With Lara Trump. “I thought of her every second of my day. So, when I hugged her the first time, it was like I was home. It was not like I had been missing. I knew I was coming home to the same woman that I left. Now, when I say the same, I’m talking about in my heart spiritually.” As for the couple’s future, Todd revealed on an ABC News Studio Special that they have plans of relocating to South Carolina in the hopes of acquiring a mansion and converting it to a hotel. Additionally, the family was confirmed to be at the center of a new reality show.
