Savannah Chrisley revealed that she advised her sister, Lindsie Chrisley, not to attend their parents’ recent hearing as Todd and Julie Chrisley appealed their tax and fraud case. Savannah stated that she told Lindsie privately that she was not wanted at the hearing, and that their father did not want her there or care to have a relationship with her. The message was relayed through their grandmother, Nanny Faye Chrisley. Savannah felt the need to address the situation publicly after Lindsie shared it on her podcast, where she discussed the reasons for her absence from the hearing.
Lindsie Chrisley described the situation as “mind-blowing” and expressed concerns about the control and manipulation within their family, particularly by Savannah.

Savannah has been vocal about her beliefs, stating that family is not defined by blood and that she considers some of her closest friends to be her true family.

The couple did not attend the hearing in court, but listened remotely. Savannah and her siblings, Chase and Grayson, were present in court, along with Todd’s mother, Nanny Faye, and Savannah’s boyfriend, Robert Shiver.
