Todd Chrisley Shares Wild Stories from His Prison Time

Todd Chrisley, star of Chrisley Knows Best, is embracing his newfound freedom after serving 28 months behind bars. After being granted a pardon by President Donald Trump—a move spearheaded by his daughter, Savannah Chrisley—the family patriarch has been sharing candid anecdotes about his time in prison.

During a recent episode of Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley, Todd opened up about his intentions during incarceration. He referred to his prison experience as a “busted, broke little summer camp,” contrasting it with the more difficult environment where his wife, Julie Chrisley, served her time.

Despite having an easier ride, Todd made no bones about his disdain for the prison staff, admitting he often “told staff off.” He described the atmosphere as being surrounded by “miserable human beings” and stated that his daily goal was to make their lives as difficult as possible because, in his perspective, it was “us against them.”

It baffled him that some inmates tried to befriend the staff. “Why would you want to be friends with them?” he questioned, illustrating a divide he felt was impossible to bridge.

As Todd’s revelations rolled out, fans of Chrisley Knows Best took to YouTube to express their thoughts. Many were delighted by Todd’s characteristic sass, with one fan exclaiming, “I love how sassy Todd still is! I feel like he’s even more sassy! And I’m here for it!” Others expressed their eagerness to see the family back on television, with comments like, “I love this family and am so happy they are free.”

In stark contrast, social media also hosted a wave of criticism towards Todd’s recent podcast statements. Some users voiced disapproval, with one Instagram user stating, “He needs to keep his big mouth shut. He got out. He still should be in there. He hasn’t learned anything.” Another critic tweeted, “Imagine the audacity of being a criminal and making WORKERS miserable,” highlighting the mixed feelings surrounding his candid disclosures.

This dynamic response—both adoring and critical—underscores the impact the Chrisley family has had since their return to the spotlight. Fans are eagerly anticipating more from Todd, while others remain skeptical, hoping to hear more from Julie as well. The buzz surrounding Todd’s sass and candid reflections continues to linger, adding yet another layer to the family’s complex narrative in the world of reality television.
