Reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley have walked free from prison after a surprise pardon from former U.S. President Donald Trump. The couple, convicted in 2022 for defrauding banks out of over $30 million, were mid-appeal when their daughter Savannah Chrisley reportedly got a direct call from Trump confirming the pardon. Todd was serving a 12-year sentence in Florida, while Julie was held in Kentucky. They’re now headed home to Nashville. The move has sparked major backlash online, with critics slamming it as “celebrity privilege” and labeling Trump a “corrupt felon POTUS” for his controversial wave of pardons.
