For those who watched the reality series "Chrisley Knows Best," they know that family means everything to Todd Chrisley.

The multimillionaire real estate tycoon has two children with his first wife, high school sweetheart Teresa Terry, and three children with his second wife Julie. Millions of viewers tuned in to their hit series on USA Network, which followed Todd and their family's lavish lifestyle in Atlanta and Nashville.

However, viewers were exposed to a different side of the Chrisley family in June 2022 when Todd and Julie Chrisley were found guilty of committing tax evasion and defrauding community banks out of more than $30 million in fraudulent loans. Julie Chrisley was additionally convicted of obstruction of justice and wire fraud.

In September, Todd and Julie’s prison sentences were reduced. Todd's release date from FPC Pensacola in Florida is currently set for Dec. 8, 2032, making his sentence a little over two years shorter than his original 12 years. Julie's release from FMC Lexington in Kentucky is set for Sept. 4, 2028, about one year earlier than her original release date.

Deadline reported that "Chrisley Knows Best," which had already been renewed for Season 10, and "Growing Up Chrisley" have both been canceled. Where are their five children in the midst of their parents' fall from grace?

Here's each Chrisley kid and their stance on their parents' case:

Lindsie Chrisley, 34

Lindsie Chrisley is the oldest of Todd’s two children from his first marriage to Terry and is a former cast member of “Chrisley Knows Best.”

Initially, the 34-year-old Georgia State University alumna was seen on the show for the first five seasons with her son Jackson and her now ex-husband, Will Campbell. However, she became estranged from the family in 2017 following her father's tax evasion and bank fraud allegations.

Todd accused his oldest daughter of reporting him to authorities and spreading rumors on social media during an episode of PeopleTV's Reality Check. According to a 2019 statement from her lawyer, she denied the allegations from Todd.

In 2021, she announced her impending divorce from Campbell, writing "it's with the deepest sadness that, after 9 years of marriage, Will & I have mutually decided to end our marriage." Todd weighed in with a post on Instagram, saying he still wanted the best for her.

Last year, Lindsie seemingly reconnected with her father and stepmother, joining them for an episode of their Chrisley Confessions podcast. They discussed their public fight and their issues with each other.

More recently, she shared on an episode of her own podcast, The Southern Tea, that she is no longer on speaking terms with sister, Savannah, after her comments on Nick Viall's podcast. Lindsie also revealed she had visited her father in jail and that he "seemed to be doing really well."

“My parents were welcomed (to prison) with open arms. I feel so blessed with that because I have heard of other people reporting and that not being the case,” she said.

Kyle Chrisley, 32

Kyle is the eldest son of Todd and his ex-wife.

According to Parade, he is a recovering addict with bipolar disorder. The 32-year-old appeared in the first season of "Chrisley Knows Best," but a recurrence of his drug addiction led to an estrangement from his father.

In 2019, Kyle achieved sobriety. He spoke on an episode of the “Chrisley Confessions” podcast and talked about his substance abuse, mental health and suicide attempt that led his hospitalization, E! News wrote.

According to People Magazine, Kyle married Ashleigh Nelson on March 30 of 2021 in St. Augustine. The document reveals the couple got the license in St. Johns County on March 29. No witnesses to the ceremony were listed on the marriage certificate.

Kyle has a 10-year-old daughter, Chloe, with his ex-girlfriend Angela Johnson. Chloe who was under the care of Todd and Julie until the start of this year, with Savannah taking over custody.

Since the news of his parents arrest, Kyle has not said much publicly but has been supportive of Todd and Julie so far.

On March 13 of this year, Kyle was arrested for aggravated assault by the Smyrna Police Department in Tennessee. According to a press release given to People Magazine, he got into a "physical altercation" with an employee of a nearby trucking company and allegedly brandished a "fixed blade."

As of Dec. 8, it's not clear if Kyle was still facing the charge or if it has been dropped.

Chase Chrisley, 27

Chase Chrisley is Todd's oldest child with Julie, appearing in the hit show since the beginning. He has since gone into the real estate business and launched his own candle line, Chase Chrisley Collection.

According to the Today Show, he has been vocal about has the conditions of the prisons his parents are in custody at. In the July 25 episode of “Unlocked With Savannah Chrisley,” he said his parents are in a living "nightmare."

“Now they both have no air conditioning. They are both in states where it gets to be 100+ degrees and there’s no air conditioning," he said, while speaking with his sister, Savannah. “I don’t care if you killed somebody, if you’re in a government facility, you should have air conditioning."

He recently confirmed that he's dating Jodi Laine Fournerat, a travel surgical technologist and influencer, four months after ending his engagement with Emmy Medders.

Savannah Chrisley, 26

The second oldest from Todd and Julie's marriage, Savannah is a 26-year-old reality TV star most known for her appearances in "Chrisley Knows Best," "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test," and "Sharknado: The 4th Awakens."

She has been the most vocal about her parent's about the treatment of her parents in prison, claiming they are being treated very poorly in the facilities. In the same July 25 podcast episode with Chase, she said the prisons had "black mold, asbestos" and snakes "slithering on the floor" in Julie's case.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Savannah told reporters that her father is now being unfairly targeted due to her speaking out against their conditions.

"It's been really tough (for them) since I started speaking out about everything," Savannah told the outlet. "That's been the toughest part. More so for Dad. There's been a lot of retaliation, so we have to worry [about him]."

She claimed her father was barred from setting up phone calls with his lawyers and the prison guards are attempting to clean out her father's inmate commissary accounts.

Savannah now has custody of her 17-year-old brother Grayson and niece Chloe while her parents are in prison. On her podcast over the summer, she told viewers that "I have to be a positive role model for Chloe and Grayson … no matter how hard it gets, I have to show up."

In personal news, she is currently dating Robert Shiver, an a former football player who survived an alleged murder plot involving his ex-wife. She was previously engaged to former professional ice hockey player Nicolas Kerdiles, who died in a motorcycle crash in September of this year.

Grayson Chrisley, 27

The youngest of the Chrisley pack, Grayson is still in high school and documents his life playing sports on Instagram.

In June, Grayson said on Savannah's podcast that having his parents in prison was worse than them dying, as retold by the "Today" show.

“Because they’re here, but they’re not here. So it’s just time that’s being wasted,” he said. “I’m saying, like, if they died, there’s no possibility of you getting any more time with them. So it’s over.”
