Todd Chrisley is maintaining his innocence after being pardoned by President Donald Trump.

The 56-year-old reality star and his spouse, Julie Chrisley, 52, were released from incarceration on Wednesday, two and a half years following their conviction for federal bank fraud and tax evasion charges.

At a press conference on Friday, Todd was questioned by reporters about whether he harbors any remorse regarding his conviction, to which he responded firmly.

‘I would have remorse if it was something that I did,’ he said. ‘The corruption that went on in our case is going to continue to unfold.’

There has been an almighty backlash to Trump’s use of clemency for the Chrisleys since their pardon was announced.

Additionally, their daughter Savannah Chrisley, 27, has come under scrutiny over how she was able to get her parents’ out.

Joining her father at Friday’s press conference, she slammed rumors that she slept her way get her parents freed. 

Instead, she said she was ‘relentless’ in her mission to get her parents out.  

‘The biggest misconception right now is I either paid for a pardon or slept for a pardon,’ Savannah told press. 

“If people understood the countless hours, the money, and the effort I dedicated to going to [Washington] DC, without a scheduled meeting, getting on a plane with the determination to be in the right place at the right time to meet the right people.”

She continued: ‘I have fought hard and I was exhausted and I begged for meetings.

‘I was never too good to ask and that’s the thing. 

‘People think, you’re a celebrity, you’re white, you have money, that we got an upper hand, but we didn’t. I had to fight, and I was relentless, and that’s how it happened.’

Todd also recalled the moment he found out he had been pardoned.

‘I remember walking back from the phone and just feeling numb,’ he said.

‘Then after about 10 minutes all I could think about was the guys that I was leaving behind.’

Former Chrisley Knows Best stars Todd and Julie were both convicted in 2022 for orchestrating a $30 million bank fraud and tax evasion scheme and had been serving multi-year prison terms.

Julie was sentenced to serve in Kentucky until 2028 and Todd in Florida until 2032

But on Tuesday, President Trump personally called their daughter to inform her of his bombshell decision.

The made-for-TV moment was broadcast on social media by Trump aide Margo Martin who celebrated the criminals’ release with the caption, ‘Trump Knows Best.’

‘It’s a great thing because your parents are going to be free and clean,’ he said during the phone call with Savannah.

Before their joint press conference on Friday, Savannah gave an update on how her parents have been readjusting to normal life.

‘Oh my gosh, it has been amazing,’ she said.

‘It’s still just kind of … it doesn’t feel real. ‘We were going to bed last night. We’re like, ‘Is this real?’ And then, I wake up this morning and my mom’s walking into my bedroom and I’m like, it’s absolutely insane!’

Speaking to People, she added: ‘We are just so grateful and ready to kind of start getting back to normal life, obviously, the best we can.

‘Everything’s a whirlwind right now, and it’s kind hard to live a normal life with how things are right now, but we’ll get there.’

On Thursday, Julie showed off a shocking transformation when she was first spotted after being freed from prison as she dropped by a butcher shop.

Julie, who had been serving a seven-year sentence before her pardon, revealed a surprising head of gray hair with a wash of brown at the ends when she was seen exiting a butcher shop in Nashville.

As hair dye isn’t allowed in prison, her gray roots had been growing out, even though she previously displayed a perfectly dyed head of blond hair before her incarceration.

Meanwhile, Todd appeared to be in a particularly spicy mood in Savannah’s Instagram video, which documented their comical attempt to escape the Nordstrom store.

‘You b****es are not paying your bills for me,’ he said in a mock sinister tone while facing the camera.

He seemed more concerned with keep others from spotting who he was, as the tall shopping bag that he wore over his head didn’t exactly lend him a low profile.

‘I’m not giving them hoes a picture!’ he added sassily.

Savannah held his hand and guided him into an elevator going to the parking garage so that he didn’t crash into anything with the bag obscuring his view.

‘He looks like he hasn’t aged a day,’ she said of her father’s prison transformation.

‘It’s called the BOP [Bureau of Prisons] glow!’ he joked for the camera.

Todd added, ‘Julie’s at home. That b**** is smarter than I am!’

He joked that the ‘poor people at Nordstrom’ had helped him ‘escape’ the store.

‘They should have been there 28 months ago!’ he added, referencing his time behind bars.
