The couple rose to reality TV fame in 2014 with the premiere of their reality TV show, “Chrisley Knows Best.”
The show centered around Todd, a real estate mogul, self-made millionaire, and father with dreams of opening a department store with his real estate company, Chrisley & Company.
While the department store never panned out, Vice reported that at the time of the show’s launch, Todd Chrisley felt “fashion was his calling.”
The focus of the reality series then shifted focus to Todd’s life at home with his God-loving, straight-talking wife, Julie, and their large brood, comprised of children Lindsie, Kyle, Chase, Savannah, Grayson, and granddaughter, Chloe.
“While their lifestyle is over-the-top and their personalities are larger-than-life, the Chrisleys are a very close-knit family who are refreshingly honest and genuinely funny,” a spokesman for USA Network said ahead of the show’s premiere, the New York Daily News reported.
For the first half of the series, the family lived in a 30,000-square-foot mansion north of Atlanta and then relocated to a $3.4 million home in Nashville, Bravo reported in 2019.
Before the series was canceled in light of Todd and Julie’s convictions, it spawned several spinoffs, including “Growing Up Chrisley,” which followed kids Chase and Savannah; “According to Chrisley,” an after-show hosted by Todd; and “What’s Cooking With Julie Chrisley,” a cooking web series hosted by Julie.
