Savannah Chrisley – Feels Deep Pain About Todd & Julie
It’s understandable that Todd’s daughter feels lonely and sad with her parents in prison. On top of that, her personal life is played out in the public eye. Instead of shying away from the spotlight, she’s chosen to be candid about her feelings, which is commendable. Her mom, Julie, is currently serving her sentence in Kentucky, while her dad, Todd, is in a Florida prison. Therefore, she’s unable to visit both of them concurrently. It’s no wonder she feels conflicted at times.
Julie and Todd’s incarceration poses numerous obstacles for Savannah Chrisley, who has stepped up as the primary guardian for her younger siblings. According to her, maintaining this role isn’t always easy. Due to Todd and Julie’s separate but concurrent prison sentences after their convictions for fraud and tax evasion, their loved ones are left to cope on their own. This week, Savannah talked about how she feels choosing which parent to visit.

Savannah Chrisley can’t see both parents each weekend. So, she has to make a choice of which one of them to see. Actually, it looks like Chase will visit the one that she can’t see. Still, there are some conflicts and pain in having to make the decision. In fact, she compared it to being the child of “divorced” parents. Loving both of them, but never being with both of them at the same time isn’t easy.
