Todd Chrisley is taking pleasure in the little things after his release from prison.
When recalling his first shower at his home, Chrisley, 56, quipped in the Sunday, June 29, ABC News special, “It was almost like your first sexual encounter.”
Todd noted that his first meal after being behind bars was from Pizza Hut, while wife Julie Chrisley enjoyed Zaxby’s.
In June 2022, Todd and Julie, now 52, were convicted on charges including tax evasion and bank and wire fraud. The pair have maintained their innocence.
Todd Chrisley Shares What’s Next for Him and Wife Julie After Prison
While Todd was sentenced to 12 years in prison, Julie was given seven years. The reality TV couple were released last month after receiving pardons from President Donald Trump.
While recalling the moment Trump pardoned the couple, Julie said she quickly got in touch with daughter Savannah to share the news. (The pair share son Chase, 29, daughter Savannah, 27 and son Grayson, 19. Todd previously welcomed daughter Lindsie, 35, and son Kyle, 33, with ex-wife Teresa Terry. Todd and Julie also adopted Chloe, 12, from Kyle in 2016.)
“I call my Savannah one more time and she said, ‘He did it! He signed it!’ And I just started busting out crying,” Julie said during a Saturday, June 28, appearance on My View With Lara Trump. “And then I just hung up. I was so nervous I just hung up. It was the craziest thing because unfortunately, most of the news that you get in prison is bad news. So they’re like, ‘Are you OK?’ And I’m like, ‘I am! I think I’m getting out of here!’”
Following their release from prison, Todd shared in the ABC News special that he and Julie hope to move from Nashville back to South Carolina.

“You know, I think we will always have a presence in Nashville, but I have a pull for Julie and I to go back to South Carolina — to Charleston — to that area,” Todd said, per People. “And we have plans for what we wanna do. We have hopes of acquiring a hotel — a mansion — there, that we are gonna convert into a hotel, and we’re gonna create a show around that.”
As they navigate their new life, Todd and Julie will be taking center stage in a new Lifetime reality show following the family. In a May press conference, Todd shared that he and Julie started filming the series “literally the night that [Julie and I] got home.”
