Chase Chrisley is expressing his gratitude after his parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, were pardoned by President Donald Trump. In a statement to Us Weekly, Chase, 28, said, “I am grateful to God and extremely grateful to President Trump and his entire administration. I’m beyond thankful to finally have my parents back home and my family together again.”
Chase also took to Instagram to share his gratitude, posting a picture of Todd and Julie before their imprisonment and captioning it, “God is so good! Our rocks are back!! Thank you to Mr. President @realdonaldtrump @potus for making a remarkable decision and bringing our family back together! We love, support and thank you Mr. President! God Bless you and your entire family! Continue to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
On Tuesday, Trump officially pardoned the former Chrisley Knows Best stars following their 2022 conviction on charges including bank fraud and tax evasion.
The news of the pardon was delivered to the couple’s daughter, Savannah, 27, via a phone call from the president. Trump expressed his hopes to have Todd and Julie released as soon as possible, saying, “It’s a terrible thing but it’s a great thing, because your parents are going to be free and clean. I hope we can do it by tomorrow. I don’t know them, but give them my regards. Wish them a good life.”
Savannah shared her gratitude for the pardon in a statement to Us Weekly, saying, “For the past two and a half years, I’ve done everything in my power to fight for my parents’ freedom and bring them home. This moment is the answer to countless prayers, and I am beyond grateful to President Trump for seeing the truth and restoring my family.”
She also acknowledged the Trump administration for standing up for what is right and thanked criminal justice reform advocate Alice Marie Johnson and her parents’ attorney, Alex Little, for their support throughout the ordeal. Savannah emphasized that while this is a victory for her family, the fight against wrongful convictions and injustice within the prison system is far from over.
Since her parents reported to prison in 2022, Savannah has taken on the role of primary caregiver for her younger siblings, Grayson, 18, and Chloe, 12. Todd is also father to Lindsie and Kyle Chrisley, whom he shares with his ex-wife Teresa Terry.
The Chrisley family is grateful for the pardon and looks forward to being reunited and moving forward as a family.
