President Donald Trump called two of the children of imprisoned reality television couple Todd and Julie Chrisley from the Oval Office on Tuesday, informing them of his plans to pardon their parents as soon as Wednesday.
The pair, known for their roles on the TV show “Chrisley Knows Best,” sought pardons from Trump in February after they were convicted of bilking banks out of tens of millions of dollars in 2022, NBC News reported.
A judge had handed down sentences of 12 years for Todd Chrisley and seven years for his wife, Julie Chrisley, in November 2022 after an Atlanta jury found them guilty of fraud, tax evasion and conspiracy to defraud the United States following a weekslong federal trial.
A White House official told NBC News that Trump will sign the pardons once they are ready — most likely within 24 hours.
Trump told two of their children, Savannah and Grayson Chrisley, in a phone call that he planned to pardon the couple.
