How Todd, Julie Chrisley are spending their final weeks before prison

Todd and Julie Chrisley are savoring their freedom before beginning their respective prison sentences.

The reality TV stars — who were convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion in June — will turn themselves in to separate Florida facilities next month.

But until then, their daughter Lindsie Chrisley told People that the two are “living every day like it’s [their] last, enjoying the moment [and] spending time with their kids that are in Nashville.”

According to the 33-year-old, Todd and Julie are also “dedicating their time in therapy and their biblical studies.”

“Of course, I’m spending time with my parents over the phone because I also have shared custody,” she noted of her 10-year-old son, Jackson. “So I don’t have the luxury of being able to just pick up and go to Nashville and be there until January.”

Lindsie, whose 2021 divorce from William Campbell actually sparked a reconciliation with her previously estranged parents, said she and her family are still “adjusting” to their “new normal.”

“Trying to navigate your new normal by trying to maintain some sense of normalcy has been very hard,” she admitted.

The mother of one said her approach to doing so involves focusing on her parents, siblings and Jackson.

Last month, Todd, 53, was sentenced to 12 years in federal custody, while Julie, 49, received seven years behind bars. Both were ordered to serve 16 months of probation following their releases.

Their daughter Lindsie Chrisley clarified that the viral video showing her and her friends drinking champagne after sentencing was rooted in “devastation, not celebration.”

After her parents learned their fates, Lindsie was seen sipping champagne with friends in an Instagram Story many interpreted to be celebratory.

But she insists that couldn’t be farther from the truth.

“When I got home from their sentencing, my girlfriends were there [with] champagne, which is something that we regularly do,” she explained to People, adding that champagne happens to be the group’s “drink of choice” and was “not a celebratory drink.”

“There was, in no way, any type of celebration going on,” she said. “Devastation, not celebration.”

Todd will serve his sentence at Federal Prison Camp Pensacola, while Julie will be two hours away at Federal Correctional Institution Marianna.
