Life comes at you fast. This time last week, Todd Chrisley and Julie Chrisley were sitting in their prison cells, reflecting on the massive bank fraud and tax evasion scheme that pushed their family into ruins. This week, they're back at home and all smiles thanks to the full pardons they received from the President.
Their daughter, Savannah Chrisley, has been acting like the family spokesperson throughout this entire ordeal, keeping the world updated on what she believes was a miscarriage of justice. It's a role she's still serving while her parents get reacquainted to life outside of prison, and in a new interview, she said they're still in 'shock.'
In an interview with People, Savannah described the last few days as a 'whirlwind.' According to her, she was walking into a Sam's Club when she got a personal phone call from Trump sharing the news of the pardon.
'Oh my gosh, it has been amazing. It's still just kind of … it doesn't feel real,' Savannah said. 'We were going to bed last night. We're like, 'Is this real?' And then, I wake up this morning and my mom's walking into my bedroom and I'm like, it's absolutely insane!'
Todd was originally hit with a 12-year prison sentence while Julie was set to serve seven years. Now that it has been overturned, Savannah said her parents are 'doing great' and adjusting to their newfound freedom.
'It's obviously an adjustment … I think they're kind of just in shock right now,' she admitted. 'It's just a big adjustment when you're in prison for two and a half years, and then you go back to so-called normal life. I can't imagine.'
While Todd and Julie adjust to their new surroundings, Savannah teased that they'll be opening up about their experiences soon. They've got an upcoming Lifetime series where we'll get a front row seat to the aftermath of the pardon. That means we're not going to be hearing the end of this anytime soon.
'I just think it's a lot for them, but they're enjoying it. We're all spending time together,' Savannah said. 'And obviously, when they're ready to talk about their feelings and emotions, I know that they will articulate it well, like they always do.'
Chrisley Knows Best is streaming on Peacock.
