Savannah Chrisley cycles through many emotions on the long drive to see her parents Todd and Julie Chrisley in prison.
The Chrisley Knows Best alum, 26, confessed to having feelings of anxiety when it comes time to see her parents.
“The night before I go to visit my parents I get really anxious… can’t sleep… can’t sit still…and my mind just won’t shut off,” she wrote over a photo of herself in bed the she shared via Instagram Story. “Waves of anxiety, grief, sadness, happiness, etc.”
Savannah noted that her heightened emotions are compounded by waking up as early as 3 a.m. to “get ready and start driving” to see Todd at the Pensacola Federal Prison Camp in Florida or Julie, who’s serving out her sentence in Kentucky at Federal Medical Center Lexington.
She described her state of mind as “feelings that only a loved one of someone who is incarcerated will understand.”
Todd is serving a reduced sentence of 10 years at the federal prison after a jury convicted him and Julie of a multimillion dollar bank fraud and tax evasion scheme. Julie is also serving a reduced sentence of six years in a Kentucky federal prison. Both will have 16 months of probation following their release.
