Todd Chrisley recounted the emotional moment he learned he had been pardoned by President Donald Trump, detailing the tearful phone call with his daughter Savannah that changed everything.

Chrisley’s Pardon

Chrisley said he was returning from the prison library when a corrections officer caught up to him, revealing he had been pardoned and would be going home within hours. He was so overwhelmed that he froze.

His daughter confirmed the news, adding that the president had called her as she was leaving a store. At that point, her focus had become getting her father and arranging for someone to pick up her mother, Julie, who had also been convicted on federal charges of bank fraud and tax evasion.

Chrisley said his daughter told him, ‘I’m trying to get the plane lined up now.’ He instructed Savannah to send her brothers to pick up Julie.

The couple was pardoned by Trump in May 2025 and walked out of prison after serving about 2.5 years. They have always maintained their innocence.
