Grayson Chrisley’s Shocking Request Amid Parents’ Release
Chrisley Knows Best alum Grayson Chrisley had a shocking request once his parents, Julie and Todd Chrisley, were released from prison. They spent over two years behind bars, and when they were pardoned, Grayson was on the line with the president. So, what did he want when his parents returned home? Keep reading for more details.
Grayson Chrisley’s Shocking Request For Parents
It was extremely rough for Grayson Chrisley when his parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, were locked up. He and Chloe Chrisley were now under the guardianship of his older sister, Savannah Chrisley. This was an adjustment, but they did their best to make it work. She took them on vacations, and Grayson graduated from high school, all without their parents. Eventually, he headed off to the University of Alabama, with Savannah decorating his dorm the way she saw fit. She fought tirelessly to get their parents released from prison, and, at the end of May 2025, it happened.
President Donald Trump called up Savannah and shared that he had pardoned Todd and Julie. Grayson was on the line and immediately broke down. He was so grateful and within a day, the Chrisleys were set to be reunited. Now, it has been revealed what Grayson wanted from his parents when they returned home. Todd shared that Grayson asked to sleep in his parents’ bedroom with them on their first night. Grayson feared that his parents would leave again, so it made him feel better.
Todd obliged and told him it was fine for him to sleep with them. Grayson Chrisley was so grateful to have them back home and admitted it is easy to take that time for granted. However, since he knew what life was like when they were gone, he never wanted to feel that way again. Savannah also noted how scared Grayson was of losing their parents again, as she shared in their sit-down with Lara Trump:
“The first night he said, ‘I’m scared to go to sleep because I feel like I’m just going to wake up in the morning and they’re not going to be here.”
Fortunately, he did not have anything to worry about as they were still home a month later.
The More The Merrier
Although Grayson Chrisley was scared of losing Todd and Julie Chrisley, he now has two mothers. He looks at Savannah Chrisley as another mom, given that they are nearly a decade apart. Yet, she has noted how much her little brother has taught her through this experience. Furthermore, she shared that he saved her; however, they actually saved each other during the tough times. Despite Todd and Julie being so far away, the patriarch felt that he was lucky as they could communicate. Unfortunately, the husband and wife did not have the same privilege while they were locked up. Now, everyone is back together, and they are more grateful than they even knew possible.
