Todd and Julie Chrisley are back home after staying two years apart from their family.

Todd, 56, and Julie, 52, were both released from federal prison in May after being granted presidential pardons. They had spent time in separate facilities in Florida and Kentucky. Grayson, who was still a teenager when his parents went to prison, was scared to believe they were really home. “The first night he said, ‘I’m scared to go to sleep because I feel like I’m just going to wake up in the morning and they’re not going to be here,’” Savannah Chrisley said during the interview. Savannah, 27, had custody of both Grayson and their younger ser Chloe, 12, while their parents were incarcerated. “Grayson’s always said, ‘I have two moms,’ because we’re nine years apart,” she added. Savannah and Grayson leaned on each otherSavannah said Grayson believed she saved him; however, in reality, “he saved me.” The past two years brought them even closer. “Going through this together has been such a whirlwind,” she added, and her brother echoed the sentiment. Now that his parents are back, he says what matters most is just being together. “You take those times for granted when they are home. Then one day, it’s just gone,” he said. This year’s Father’s Day held special meaning for the Chrisley family. Grayson shared a heartfelt post on Instagram for Todd, marking their first celebration together in nearly three years. “Happy Father’s Day to the man I look up to,” Grayson wrote on June 15. “I really don’t know how you do it… I pray every day that one day I can be at least half the man you are,” he added. Todd and Julie’s return has brought relief and healing to the whole family. And for Grayson, it means one thing: he finally feels like things are whole again.
