Daughter Savannah Chrisley said she cried when Donald Trump was elected US President as it gave her hope her parents would be released from prison.
Todd and Julie were jailed in 2023 after being found guilty of 12 counts of tax evasion and fraud with Todd, 56, sentenced to 12 years behind bars and Julie, 52, ordered to serve seven.
However, in May they were freed after being pardoned by Trump and Savannah, 27, believed a win for Trump was their 'only way out'.
Speaking on Fox News Channel's My View with Lara Trump, she said: 'Grayson [Savannah's brother] and I watched the election together, and he got to vote in the election for the first time. And when we were watching it and we saw the president win, we both started sobbing. And he just grabbed me and hugged me because we knew that was our only way out.'
Todd spoke about watching the election in prison, saying: 'We were all glued to the television. When they finally announced that he was the winner, everyone there started screaming and yelling because they knew, they felt in their spirit that if President Trump wins this election, there's hope for all of us.'
Savannah also revealed the 79-year-old president called her to tell her about his plans for her parents.
She said: 'He was like, 'How are you?' I was like, well, in the wise words of you fighting like hell. And I was like, I probably shouldn't have said that to the president, but it is President Trump. A big thing was he asked Alice Johnson, 'Is this a commutation? Or is this a full pardon?' And she said, 'As of now, it's just a commutation.' He goes, 'Nope, Nope. We're going to give them a full pardon. These people get their lives back.' And I was just in such shock.'
Julie shared about the moment she found out about her pardon, saying: 'I called Savannah one more time, and she said, 'He did it, he signed it'.
'And I just started busting out crying. And everyone was looking around, and then I just hung up. I was so nervous, I just hung up.'

Country star causes outrage after singing for women to 'give up rights' and 'tale a slap' in controversial talk show appearance
An American musician sparked outrage after singing she would 'give up a few rights' and 'take a slap' if it meant she'd be treated more respectfully by men - in some divisive lyrics. Country star Jessie Murph, 20, performed the controversial tune on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, with the lines yearning for her beau to 'love her like it's 1965'. Her ballad was also nostalgic for a time period where courting gentlemen were 'handwriting letters' and 'showing up at the door with flowers' instead of 'hit[ting] [women] up on Snapchat ' at 2am. The star donned a Priscilla Presley beehive and a baby pink mini dress with patterned tights as she danced on a stage with a retro sofa in what appears to be a recreation of the 'tradwife' lifestyle, charming husband on hand. The term refers to women who perform 'traditional' gendered roles, often likened to the archetypal 1950s 'housewife'. Recent interest in the aesthetic has seen millions on social media calling for girls to ditch corporate life and instead, dedicate their days to cooking, cleaning, wearing modest and feminine dress, and practicing traditional etiquette - as well as being submissive to their husbands. Jessie's tune attracted fury online, with many branding the remark 'tasteless' for making light of a time in which women endured horrific misogyny. In both England and the US, marital rape was still legal during the era, and women could not open their own bank account, among other restrictions. 'In 1965, it was legal for men to rape their wives. I don't care if this is meant to be ironic or satirical or whatever, I absolutely hate it,' one commenter on social media penned. Another added: 'Like what does loving like it's 1965 even mean? Getting your a** beat? having no rights is romantic? I hate the white woman 50s-60s "aesthetic".' A third simply exclaimed: '"I think id give up a few rights if you would just love me like it's 1965" SORRY?????' 'Call me too woke but "I would give up rights if you love me like it's 1965" at a time where women are actually losing rights is so insane???' another offered. Others similarly agreed, writing: 'Has anyone else heard the song 1965 by Jessie Murph? 'Read the lyrics, it's literally far right propaganda that is encouraging women to give up their rights. People are saying it's satire but given everything going on, why say this while we are literally at risk of losing our rights ??'. She's not the only performer to have attracted backlash for similar aesthetics in recent months. In June, Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album Man's Best Friend - but the cover art for the upcoming release sparked fierce criticism from fans. During an Instagram Live, the 26-year-old pop singer shared a video of herself flipping through a stack of records by Donna Summer, ABBA, and Dolly Parton, before stopping on her own, revealing Man's Best Friend. Jessie's lyrics attracted fury online, with many believing the remark was tasteless and made light of a period of horrific misogyny for women Earlier this year, Jessie turned up at the ACM Awards 2025 in Texas with a baby piglet in her arms The teaser gave a peek at the album cover, showing Carpenter on all fours while a person dressed in black slacks — whose face is not visible — pulls her blonde hair. She also posted a close-up image of a heart-shaped dog collar engraved with Man's Best Friend. The highly sexualized and provocative album art quickly drew backlash, and she later released a more conservative alternative. After her performance, Jessie thanked the Tonight show for a 'dazzling' and 'grand time'. The Alabama-born singer first rose to fame from uploading vlogs and song covers to TikTok and YouTube - which led her on to releasing her two albums: That Ain't No Man That's the Devil in 2024 and Sex Hysteria in 2025. She also received backlash when the music video for her song, 1965, was released - with some accusing the footage of being pornography, Taste of Country reported. In the retro-inspired clips that shows a family around a table - and Jessie forlornly singing to a child - as there is also a brief shot of a couple having sex. The clip - which has to have age verification to be watched - drew comments like 'the fact that YouTube removes videos for way less and this is still up is insane' and having a child in this video, especially just before a sexual scene, is wild'. The track also includes risque lines like 'I might get a little slap-slap, but you wouldn't hit me on Snapchat' and 'I would be twenty, and it'd be acceptable for you to be forty'. Jessie resorted to taking to TikTok to insist that 'the entire song is satire', quipping: 'Are y'all stupid?'. It's not the first time Jessie sparked attention in the media. In May, the singer turned heads at the ACM awards 2025 after she bizarrely rocked up on the red carpet with a baby pig. Talking to Entertainment Tonight before the show, she introduced the 'little guy' as Wilbur. 'I just decided that I wanted a pig, and I've always wanted one my whole life,' she explained. 'I've always wanted a mini pig, and then I find out that miniature pigs don't exist.'

The stars of the much-loved Wittering Whitehalls podcast on how a hearing check has changed their relationship
Michael and Hilary Whitehall have been married for 39 years and – as anyone who has listened to their podcast, The Wittering Whitehalls, knows – they love to disagree. As the parents of stand-up comedian Jack Whitehall, the former talent agent (Michael) and actor (Hilary) have found new later-in-life careers as podcasters, loved both for their amusing insights and for their gentle bickering. Which is probably why they didn't notice at first that Michael's hearing was causing some frustrations. 'I genuinely do think that our arguing has got worse in recent years,' admits Hilary. 'And yes, I would argue that some of it is perhaps to do with hearing loss, because it's quite a tricky subject to navigate.' Mishaps and misunderstandings It wasn't until Michael, 85, went to Specsavers for a hearing check that he was told that he had good hearing for his age but was struggling with consonant sounds. 'We have misunderstandings on an hourly basis,' laughs Hilary. 'Just now I said: 'I'm going to brush my hair' and Michael said: 'Do you have time to wash your hair?'. 'We live in a house which has got six flights of stairs, so there is a lot of shouting up and down the stairs. 'And then there's lots of me losing my temper and stomping up the stairs... because he hasn't caught what I said!' Michael complained actors were mumbling through every film... then he realised maybe it wasn't the standard of modern acting that was the problem. It was the same at the theatre. 'I'd say: 'The trouble with that actor is they don't train them any more, he just mumbles and mumbles'. 'But I'm not going to say that any more of course!' Finding what's needed Those small issues with hearing caused their fair share of amusing anecdotes, as well as a few everyday irritations. 'What really annoys Michael about me is that I come into a room and immediately turn the sound on the television down,' says Hilary. 'And then he comes in and immediately turns it up, so we're constantly battling with each other over the remote control. 'And of course there is an element (we've been married almost 40 years) of 'Is it selective hearing?',' laughs Hilary. 'Is my voice just a noise or is he actually not hearing me?' How a hearing check helped Neither could believe how easy the hearing check was, and they were immediately put at ease by the hearing expert. 'She was so reassuring, the whole thing was painless,' says Hilary. 'The hearing expert at Specsavers said, actually your [Michael's] hearing is pretty good for your age, a little bit of upper range hearing loss, but what you're missing is the consonants. 'You're hearing an approximation of what is being said and it's very interesting to have that pointed out to you by an expert, because that made me more understanding.' For Michael, the solution was as straightforward as the hearing check. He got two hearing devices, one for each ear. They were small and discreet and even matched to his hair colour. Now, Michael can simply pop them in and use them when he feels the need. 'The last time I saw what was then known as a hearing aid was with my grandfather. He had a whole apparatus with wires and a crackling box on the front, which he kept hitting all the time while saying, 'Michael, speak up!'. 'I imagined there had been an improvement, but hadn't realised it had improved quite to the extent it has – where you can hardly see them.' Hilary adds: 'At a wedding we went to recently nobody knew that he had them in; they are beautifully designed and very discreet.' Spreading the word The couple are now working with Specsavers to help encourage others to take action. Hilary explains: 'Michael always says that we're all happy to go and have a dental check, a sight check, but the one thing we don't do is have a hearing check, because there is a stigma about hearing loss. 'But I would say to anybody: go for a hearing check: they're very quick, very efficient and very accurate.' Couples say 'What?' more often than 'I love you' In romantic relationships, research for Specsavers found saying 'What?' is more common than 'I love you' for couples aged 55+*. Almost half (46 per cent) of Britons had bickered with a partner due to not hearing properly; 36 per cent said it happened weekly. And 15 per cent were misunderstood by their partner at least once a day. Hearing loss can impact how we experience and enjoy life, and our relationships with loved ones. It's what Michael and Hilary found, with small misunderstandings and irritations as a result of Michael's hearing loss. But Specsavers makes it easy to keep track of your hearing health, with free hearing checks in store, expert advice and a wide range of hearing devices to suit individual needs and lifestyles. How to book your check Simply book online at and choose your local store, or call them direct. Your hearing expert will ask some easy health-related questions, use a small camera to examine the health of your ear and will then play sounds at different pitches through headphones to check your hearing. Based on your results, the Specsavers hearing experts can then make recommendations and they'll help you find the best solution for you. Symptoms to look out for Changes to hearing can happen gradually, so hearing experts recommend booking a check if you're struggling to listen to conversations or the television, if speaking on the phone is difficult, or if you feel like you have to ask people to repeat conversations in groups can be challenging, and concentrating on listening can leave you feeling stressed or tired. There is no need to be embarrassed. Earlier intervention can actually mean you have a better chance of managing and improving your hearing. And with today's hearing devices connected to phones and even linked to appliances at home, they can be easier and more discreet to manage than ever before.
