Todd Chrisley’s Final Message To Fans Before Entering Prison: I’ll ‘Fight The Good Fight’
Todd Chrisley and his wife Julie both reported to their respective prisons on Tuesday, Jan. 17 to begin their 19-year combined sentence.
Todd Chrisley, 53, released a final statement about sticking to his faith before reporting to prison on Jan. 17 for his 12-year sentence. On Monday night, Jan. 16, he shared a video to his Instagram feed (which is restricted in the United States and can no longer be viewed) of gospel musician Karen Peck singing “Four Days Late.” Some lyrics in the song read, “Lord, we don’t understand why You’ve waited so long, But His way is God’s way, not yours or mine, And isn’t it great, when He’s four days late, He’s still on time.”
“HE is always on time,” the Chrisley Knows Best star captioned the video along with the hashtag “#fightthegoodfight”. As fans know, Todd and his wife, Julie Chrisley, 50, have been very open about relying on their faith to get them through this turbulent time in their lives. After being found guilty of bank fraud and tax evasion on June 7, 2022, a person close to the pair told HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY that they were praying about their future. “They are all praying that the courts go light on them when it comes time to sentencing, given the fact that they believe they do so much good in terms of entertaining the world and allowing cameras into their homes to document their lives,” the insider explained.
Furthermore, after being denied bond on Jan. 10 as they appeal their verdict, another source said they have put all their trust in God. “They are praying that their appeal will overturn their convictions and set them free, but having no guarantees is extremely unnerving,” they divulged to HL EXCLUSIVELY. “This is the worst possible scenario, and it is playing out in front of all their fans. They are putting their faith in God now.”

The 55-year-old - best known for voicing the famous character in the 1995 animated movie - had to be separated from another woman by police in Greene County, Ohio, on August 19 after the pair were arguing and screaming. According to a police report, the women “walked out into the street screaming, without any regard for traffic”. Bedard had “a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on her breath”, but insisted she had not been drinking that day. She told police she had drunk a bottle of vodka the day before. Bedard said the other woman, Sheila Johnson, had been trying to help her into her “studio”, but she was unable to find her keys. According to the police report, Beard’s “emotions changed rapidly”, going from calm to becoming upset and eventually crying. Police tried to move Bedard away from a large window as they feared she might shatter the glass, but when Johnson offered them a name to call on Bedard’s behalf the actress ran away screaming. She was booked for disorderly conduct and released on August 21. Bedard was arrested twice over a three-day period back in November 2020. *BYLINE: Greene County Sheriff’s Office/Pop Nation/TMX/Mega. 19 Aug 2022 Pictured: The booking photo of the voice of Disney’s Pocahontas, Irene Bedard, after she was arrested for disorderly conduct. *BYLINE: Greene County Sheriff’s Office/Pop Nation/TMX/Mega.

As mentioned above, Todd is serving 12 years behind bars for his part in defrauding community banks out of more than $30 million in personal loans between 2007 and 2012. Julie is serving seven years. They debuted their hit reality series, Chrisley Knows Best, in 2014. The show and its spinoff, Growing Up Chrisley, which starred Todd and Julie’s children Savannah, 25, and Chase, 26, were canceled in November.
Todd and Julie broke their silence regarding their guilty verdict during the June 17, 2022 episode of their Chrisley Confessions podcast. “It has been a whirlwind. Lot of moving parts, lot of things going on in our lives and a lot of seeing God’s movements right now,” Todd began. “We wanted to let everyone know that it’s a very sad, heartbreaking time for our family right now. But we still hold steadfast in our faith and we trust that God will do what he does because God’s a miracle worker — and that’s what we’re holding out for.”
