“I Wasn’t Sober at All” – Chase Chrisley RETURNS with the TRUTH
Chase Chrisley’s ‘Hard Reset’: Sobriety, Sibling Feuds, and a Shocking Texas Move
In a candid, raw interview with host Rondell, Chrisley Knows Best star Chase Chrisley confronted his recent past, revealing the depths of his struggle with alcohol and the painful family fractures that played out both on and off-screen.
Appearing healthy and clear-eyed, Chrisley looked worlds away from his last appearance on the show. The reality star didn’t mince words about his previous state: “I did look like [__],” he admitted, attributing his alarming appearance to heavy “partying.”
“I was not sober at all,” Chrisley confessed, acknowledging he used alcohol to “cope” with the “downfall” of his parents’ legal battles and the cancellation of their flagship show.
The turning point, he revealed, came from his father, Todd Chrisley. “My dad was like, ‘Time to go,'” Chase said. This intervention led him to a facility—less traditional rehab, he noted, and more “intense therapy”—to get out of his environment. “I just saw like the pain that it was causing the people that love me the most,” Chrisley shared. “It gets hard to look yourself in the mirror… It was just time to have a come-to-Jesus meeting and have a hard reset.”
That reset comes alongside a new, “very raw” reality show, which Chrisley says bears little resemblance to Chrisley Knows Best. However, he expressed frustration with the new show’s editing, particularly concerning his notoriously “rocky” relationship with his sister, Savannah.
“There’s two sides to every story and like I don’t feel like both sides got told,” he stated.
The show highlighted Savannah’s efforts in their parents’ prison release, casting Chase in an unfavorable light. “I did try to help,” Chase clarified. “Could I have helped more? For sure. But… me and Savannah were like butting heads.” He admitted he was “hurt and frustrated” when he was excluded from picking his parents up upon their release.
While he respects his father for forcing the siblings to “get it together,” and confirms their relationship is “a lot better now,” the sting of the portrayal remains.
Chrisley also took aim at the “fake friends” who vanished during his family’s darkest days only to reappear when his parents were released. “Oh, they all came running,” he said with derision. “They can kiss my ass. If you’re not going to be with somebody… through the ups and the downs, you don’t just get to ride the highs… That’s the definition of someone fake.”
Now sober, Chrisley is protecting his peace, “living right with God,” and launching a new non-alcoholic seltzer, Gold Drop. But the biggest news was an accidental scoop: the Chrisley clan is making a “big move to Texas” for upcoming projects.
Reflecting on his journey, Chrisley is thankful to wake up without the dread of “What did I do last night?” He’s shed the “villainesque character” he claims he was portrayed as, insisting, “I’m not at all.”
