Savannah Chrisley Hopes For 'Answered Prayer' As She Misses Her Parents

Savannah Chrisley is longing for her parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley.

The couple, who rose to fame on the hit show "Chrisley Knows Best," is currently serving a joint 19-year sentence in Florida and Kentucky for bank fraud and tax evasion charges, resulting in a difficult time for the family. The star, who often shares updates about her family on social media, recently posted a touching message.

The actress has definitely been going through a lot since her parents were incarcerated, so it is not surprising that she opened up about how she felt via a post to her Instagram story. She uploaded a quote that contained a message of hope for answered prayer from their predicament. The text read:

"I hope that soon you get to dance around your living room with your answered prayer. I hope that you are so full of joy and contagious laughter. I hope that your person loves you just the way God intended. I hope it lasts a lifetime…all the way to heaven." 

Above the image, she wrote, "Miss you, mama and daddy…." The unfortunate situation seems to be weighing heavily on her mind, as to be expected. Earlier, she shared how the moment her parents were found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion would stay with her forever.

As reported by The Blast, she revealed during a podcast interview that her family aimed to overturn the sentence. She further noted that the conviction was completely unexpected and claimed that the government unjustly targeted the reality TV couple.

While speaking on "Off The Vine With Kaitlyn Bristowe," Savannah opened up about the emotional moment she witnessed her parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, receiving their guilty verdict after a month-long trial.

She said she would never forget the moment the verdict was read after a four-week trial and how all the charges against her parents repeatedly came out as "guilty" repeatedly. The 25-year-old added, "And I just saw the looks on my parent's faces and just everything, they were just in tears. We were not expecting that, we were like, 'There's no way."

Since the sentencing, she has been taking care of her younger brother Grayson and niece, Chloe. However, the responsibilities have taken a toll on her, leading her to suffer from a breakdown in the past.

She disclosed on an episode of her podcast "Unlocked With Savannah Chrisley," the challenges she faced as the primary caretaker of the 16-year-old and 10-year-old since her parents began serving their sentence.

The "Royal Pains" actress shared that the overwhelming responsibilities led her to a "full-on breakdown," recounting a moment when she struggled to find the right clothes and hair accessories for her niece's visit to their parents. She also admitted feeling inadequate and unworthy of filling in for her mother during her absence.

The "Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens" star has found happiness in her love life while also shouldering the responsibility of being the guardian to her younger sibling and niece.

Despite the challenges of being the eldest child in a large family like hers, The Blast noted that the podcaster is slowly getting back into dating after her parents' legal troubles put it on hold. 

While taking on the caretaker role, she revealed that she found love again during a chat on "Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe." "I am dating someone," the "Hollywood Game Night" star said.

However, she stated that she wanted to keep the relationship private for now and in a "safe place" until she figured out the direction it was headed towards. The TV personality is cautious about navigating her personal life to ensure that she is not neglecting her duties. 

As a result of this, she made it clear to her new love interest that her younger brother and niece were "a package deal." She emphatically stated, "This is what you're getting into. Guess what? There's two kids; my parents aren't in the greatest place in the world right now. You know it all, 110 percent transparency. If you're in, you're in. If you're out, you're out."
