Kyle and Chase Chrisley are elated that their parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, have been pardoned by President Trump.

“I’m ecstatic,” Kyle told E! News. “Truly. I just found out a little bit ago and I still just can’t believe it.”

The 33-year-old man, who is the son of Todd and Teresa Terry, mentioned to the media that he is aware of his sister Savannah Chrisley’s persistent efforts over the years without giving up.

“So I’m just grateful to her and to President Trump for making this happen for my dad and Julie,” Kyle said, adding that he knows his father and stepmom “can’t wait to get home and just be with family.

“I’m going to remain hopeful that another reconciliation is possible,” he shared.

Chase, 28, echoed his older brother’s sentiments, telling Us Weekly that he was “grateful to God and extremely grateful to President Trump and his entire administration” for his parents’ pardons.

“I’m beyond thankful to finally have my parents back home and my family together again!” he added.

On Tuesday, Trump, 78, announced that he was pardoning “terrific people” Todd and Julie from their prison sentences for tax evasion and bank fraud.

“It’s a terrible thing. It’s a terrible thing. But it’s a great thing because your parents are gonna be free and clean, and I hope we can do it by tomorrow. Is that OK? We’ll try getting it done tomorrow,” the politician told the couple’s children over the phone, according to a video shared on X.

“I don’t know them, but give them my regards and wish them a good life,” he added.

After hearing the news, a “speechless” Savannah, 27, tearfully took to social media to share her excitement.

“We are freaking out over here, I have shed so many tears,” she gushed in an Instagram video.

“Both my parents are coming home tonight or tomorrow, and I still don’t believe it’s real,” she added.

In June 2022, Todd, 56, and Julie, 52, were convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion.

Prosecutors accused the “Chrisley Knows Best” stars of submitting fake documents to banks when applying for loans. They also alleged that Julie had submitted false credit reports and bank statements when trying to rent a home in California.

Todd and his wife reported to their respective prisons in Florida and Kentucky in January 2023.

The dad of five was ordered to spend 12 years behind bars, while Julie was given a lighter sentence of seven years in prison at the Federal FMC Lexington in Kentucky.

In September 2023, Page Six reported that Todd and Julie’s sentences were reduced, with more than a year taken off their time.

Todd and Julie are also parents to son Grayson, 19, and have adopted Kyle’s 12-year-old daughter, Chloe. The “Infinite Love” crooner is also dad to daughter Lindsie, 35, whom he also shares with Terry.
