Chrisley Knows Best: Todd Chrisley Explains ‘Emotional Battle’ Concerning Daughter Lindsie Amid Divorce

Todd Chrisley, 53 is no stranger to sounding off and, right now is no different with all the legal troubles and emotional strain between him and his daughter Lindsie, 31.

According to ET, who spoke with the Chrisley Knows Best star and his wife Julie, 48, in his hometown of Nashville, the two give them an exclusive and transparent interview, saying, “Ask us whatever you want to ask us.”

Todd said he received the news of his daughter’s coming divorce via text message, adding that he has not spoken with her since, due to the very tenuous status of their relationship.

Todd indicated to ET that, every time he tried to communicate with his daughter, he felt his words got twisted, saying, “and in the position we’re in, we can’t run that risk.”

As fans may know, Todd and Julie had previously accused Lindsie of turning them into authorities over alleged tax evasion.

The couple was subsequently cleared of those charges at the state level; however, they’re still facing the 12-count federal indictment over tax fraud.

On the other side of all this, Lindsie has made claims that her father and brother have tried to blackmail her over a sex tape – an accusation her father flat out denies.
