Chrisley Knows Best

Savannah Chrisley Says Brother Grayson and Sister Chloe Go to Therapy Weekly (Exclusive)

Savannah Chrisley says therapy has been a “saving grace” as she continues to shoulder the role of caregiver for her younger siblings amid her parents’ incarceration.

The 26-year-old reality star, and host of the podcast Unlocked With Savannah Chrisley, spoke with ET’s Rachel Smith at her home in Nashville, Tennessee, on Wednesday, addressing how her parents — Todd and Julie Chrisley — have been dealing with their prison sentences and how her 17-year-old brother, Grayson, and 11-year-old sister, Chloe, are managing at home.

“They’re in therapy every week,” Savannah says. “It’s just been a saving grace, you know, but it’s also hard for me because I’m like, going, going, going and at the end of the night, I kinda hit a wall. I like to say, like, every few months I hit a wall and I just break because I’m like, ‘OK, I’m exhausted. Like, mentally, emotionally, just, it’s tough because I’m having to play mom, dad, sister, and it’s hard to differentiate between all of them.”

Savannah says that honesty has been the best policy throughout her family’s legal drama, as she does her best to keep Grayson and Chloe informed and well-versed in deciphering headlines.

“They know all of it,” Savannah says. “My parents were never like, ‘Alright, we’re going to hide all this from them.’ They know it, unfortunately, they see it online. So our view point is, we would rather them hear it from us before they see it because, as we know, like, not everything is truth that is written. There’s a little bit of truth, and then it’s spun into this whole story that will sell. So they’ve always gotten the truth from us firsthand.”

She adds, “Unfortunately, they’ve grown up really fast because of it. But, I mean, what kid doesn’t need therapy? What adult doesn’t need therapy? You know, it’s life. You go through this and, for me, it’s just about how you deal with it.”

CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST --

The family resides in the same Nashville home that appeared in their former reality series, Chrisley Knows Best. Savannah says that keeping a routine is key for her family. Chloe attends school, Grayson is homeschooled, and Savannah keeps busy to provide for them.

“I have like a hustler mentality, it’s just how I am,” she says. “I got it from both my parents and I don’t think I’m too good to get out here and work. I don’t think I’m like better than anyone else to have to do what the normal everyday person has to do.”

For Savannah, her growing roster of business endeavors includes a podcast and a real estate business, among other side projects. Currently, she says, she’s in negotiations for filming a Very Cavallari-esque reality show about her Chrisley and Co. brokerage, which specializes in high-end properties, and the personal lives of her team members.

“I have two kids to take care of, I have myself I have to take care of, and I’ve tried to put myself in a position to where the kids’ lives don’t change,” she says. “My life may change, but theirs hasn’t, so if I have to go without for them to have, I will if I have to. And I feel like that’s just, like, a parent’s mentality. You do for your kids as best as you can.”
