Todd & Julie Chrisley tear up as they share joy about Chase after treatment

In a moment that has touched fans across the world, Chrisley Knows Best stars Todd and Julie Chrisley have opened up about their son Chase’s emotional journey of recovery.

After enduring months of uncertainty, family turmoil, and personal struggle, the couple proudly shared that Chase has completed treatment and is finally finding peace.

In Todd’s words, “My baby is back.” The update came during a recent episode of the Chrisley Confessions 2.0 podcast, where Todd and Julie, now 56 and 52 respectively,

spoke candidly about their son’s health and their gratitude for his progress. “He looks really good. He’s doing really good,” Julie said, her voice full of emotion. “You can just see the light back in his eyes. It’s a blessing.”

Todd echoed her relief, explaining that Chase’s sobriety and renewed energy have given the family new hope. “It’s a day-to-day thing, but he’s sober right now. He’s working on himself, and that’s all that matters. I see a man who’s growing, healing, and choosing life again.”

A Father and Son Reconnected

Todd revealed that he and Chase have been working out together three times a week since his treatment — something that has strengthened their bond after years of tension and public scrutiny. “It feeds my soul to be with him,” Todd said. “When I see him laugh again, when I see the joy in his eyes, it reminds me why I fight so hard for this family. Chase isn’t just back — he’s thriving.”

Chase, now 29, had previously opened up about his struggles with alcohol during the Chrisleys: Back to Reality docuseries, which aired on Lifetime earlier this year. The series chronicled the family’s life after Todd and Julie’s high-profile legal battles and subsequent prison sentences. While much of the show focused on their attempts to rebuild, viewers noticed Chase’s declining health and emotional distance.

“I just thought I could bury it,” Chase admitted in the series finale. “But I can’t. I need to face it.” His confession led to the powerful decision to seek treatment, something Todd says may have saved his life.

A Family That Has Weathered Every Storm

Few families in reality TV history have faced as many public challenges as the Chrisleys. Once the picture of southern charm and wealth, their empire came crashing down after Todd and Julie were convicted of tax evasion and fraud in 2022. The couple served 28 months behind bars before being pardoned earlier this year.

Their return to family life hasn’t been easy. “We’ve been through storms that could have broken us,” Julie shared. “But through it all, faith has been our anchor. God didn’t bring us this far to leave us here.”

For Todd, Chase’s recovery feels like divine redemption. “When I saw my son in that dark place, I thought I’d lose him,” Todd confessed tearfully. “But this — this is proof that God restores what’s broken. My son is healing, and that means the world to me.”

The Silent Struggle

Behind the scenes, sources close to the family revealed that Chase entered a holistic treatment program in Arizona earlier this year. The facility focuses on emotional regulation, trauma therapy, and spiritual restoration — a program far removed from the typical Hollywood rehab environment.

“He wasn’t there for drugs,” one insider clarified. “He was there to find peace. He’s been carrying the weight of his family’s pain for years — the public scrutiny, his parents’ incarceration, and the pressure to stay strong. It finally became too much.”

According to those closest to him, Chase took the program seriously, confronting not just his drinking but also years of suppressed grief and anxiety. “He’s come out of it a different person,” a family friend shared. “He’s calm. He’s grounded. He’s found his center again.”

Savannah’s Tearful Confession

Chase’s sister, Savannah Chrisley, who has become the family’s unofficial spokesperson since her parents’ imprisonment, opened up about her brother’s transformation during an emotional episode of her Unlocked podcast.

“There were nights I didn’t know if I’d ever get my brother back,” she admitted through tears. “He was angry and broken. He wanted to be strong for everyone — for me, for Mom and Dad, for Grayson — but it crushed him. Seeing him smile again after treatment… I just cried. It felt like I got my brother back.”

Savannah’s words mirrored what fans have long admired about the Chrisley family — their ability to find strength in vulnerability, even when the cameras stop rolling.

Julie’s Motherly Faith

While still adjusting to life after prison, Julie has found purpose in faith and reflection. Through a spokesperson, she shared a moving statement about her son’s journey. “God gives us the children we need, not always the ones we expect,” she said. “Chase has taught me about resilience and forgiveness. Knowing that he’s healing gives me strength to face each day.”

Julie has reportedly maintained weekly contact with Chase through phone calls and letters, often referring to him as her “sunshine.” “Even from prison, her faith in him never wavered,” an insider revealed. “She believed he would find his way back, and he did.”
