The Chrisley family has never been far from the spotlight, but in recent months, much of that focus has shifted toward the struggles and resilience of Chase Chrisley. Known for his charismatic personality

and boyish charm on Chrisley Knows Best, Chase’s personal battles have become increasingly public, particularly as he faced a turning point with his decision to seek professional help for alcohol issues.

Now, following his stint in rehab and his family’s return to the public eye after a turbulent chapter, his father, Todd Chrisley, is offering an emotional update that has fans buzzing.

The pivotal moment played out during the finale of The Chrisleys: Back to Reality, where Chase stunned viewers by announcing his decision to check into rehab. The episode, filmed after Todd and Julie Chrisley’s release from prison on May 28, was raw, vulnerable, and a stark reminder that even reality TV families—famed for their glamour, wealth, and quick-witted banter—are not immune to life’s toughest struggles. For many fans, it was a turning point, showcasing Chase not as the playful prankster or laid-back son, but as a young man determined to face his demons head-on.

Just months later, Todd and Julie addressed Chase’s progress in a rare, candid moment on the September 17 episode of their Chrisley Confessions 2.0 podcast. Todd, who has built his reputation on both tough love and unwavering devotion to his family, looked to Julie as he asked, “My son is doing good today, right?” Without hesitation, Julie confirmed with a firm but hopeful, “Yes, doing good today.”

While the couple did not disclose specific details about the length of Chase’s rehab stay or the exact program he completed, Todd was quick to emphasize what mattered most to him as a father: accountability and consistency. “In my heart, what I believe is in the best interest of our son is he’s getting the help that he needs,” Todd shared with listeners. “He’s doing what he’s supposed to be doing. He’s following his program. He’s being held accountable.”

That accountability, Todd stressed, comes not only from the structured program but also from within the family. Known for his no-nonsense approach to parenting, Todd made it clear he was not letting Chase off the hook simply because of fame or family ties. “Have I not called out the bulls**t?” he asked rhetorically. “Have I not said, ‘This is the plan. This is what you will do. If you step out of it, this will be the consequences?’ I’ve done that.” For Todd, ensuring Chase sticks to his recovery is not just a fatherly duty—it is a mission born out of love and hard-earned wisdom.

This chapter of Chase’s life follows a tumultuous year marked by personal and legal challenges. In January, he was arrested for simple battery, a jarring headline that shook fans who had watched him grow up on-screen. By March, however, Chase revealed he was “almost one month” alcohol-free, signaling a desire to turn things around. Yet, sobriety is seldom a straight path, and it remains unclear what led from his March declaration to his eventual decision to enter rehab.

Still, Chase himself has been transparent about where he draws strength. In an emotional interview with People in June, he opened up about how his girlfriend, Jodi Laine Fournerat, became a pillar of support during the most difficult period of his life. “I’ve never been with a woman that has the work ethic that she has,” he said with admiration. “So honestly, it was refreshing for me to see. And honestly, she’s a big reason why I quit drinking, too, because I mean, without her support throughout the last two years of my parents being gone, I really don’t know where I would be—if I would even be here.”

That heartfelt confession highlighted not only the toll of Todd and Julie’s absence during their prison sentences but also the importance of having a grounding influence. For Chase, Jodi provided not just companionship but a vision of a healthier, more disciplined lifestyle—something he could model his own recovery after.

Chase has also found empowerment in new ventures tied directly to his journey of sobriety. In July, he launched Gold Drop, his very own line of alcohol-free sparkling water. The brand reflects more than a business decision; it’s a statement of commitment to his new lifestyle and a way of encouraging others to embrace alternatives to alcohol. In an era where sober-curious movements are gaining traction, Gold Drop positions Chase not just as a reality TV personality but as an entrepreneur with a meaningful mission.

The Chrisley family, known for their resilience through scandal, legal battles, and public scrutiny, now appears to be rallying behind Chase as he rebuilds his life. Todd’s firm words on the podcast painted a picture of a family still united, even as they navigate uncharted waters. Julie’s quiet affirmation—“Yes, doing good today”—spoke volumes. It was not flashy, not exaggerated, but deeply meaningful, offering a glimpse into a mother’s relief as her son takes each step forward.

For fans of the Chrisleys, this moment is more than just another headline. It is a raw, human story of redemption, perseverance, and the unbreakable ties of family. Chase’s decision to seek help reflects maturity, while Todd and Julie’s updates remind viewers that love sometimes means being brutally honest and holding each other to the highest standards.

What lies ahead for Chase remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: the journey is ongoing. Sobriety, accountability, and personal growth are not achieved overnight. Yet, with the support of his family, his girlfriend, and his own newfound discipline, Chase is carving out a path that could inspire many who have faced similar battles.

As Todd himself put it, Chase is “doing what he’s supposed to be doing.” For now, that’s enough. In the unpredictable, often chaotic world of reality television, Chase Chrisley’s story stands out as a poignant reminder that behind the lights, the cameras, and the drama are very real struggles—and very real victories.

The Chrisleys may be best known for their sharp one-liners and lavish lifestyles, but it’s their resilience in the face of hardship that keeps fans coming back. With Chase taking his recovery one day at a time, and Todd and Julie publicly standing behind him, this chapter in the Chrisley saga may be one of their most powerful yet.
