Savannah Chrisley reveals dad Todd is teaching a financial class in prison: ‘How ironic’

Savannah Chrisley revealed her dad, Todd Chrisley, is teaching a financial class in prison.

“Dad’s definitely taught some classes,” Savannah said during Tuesday’s episode of her “Unlocked” podcast.

“Trauma is one of them. I think another one was a financial class — which, how ironic?” she commented, referencing the fact that her parents are both in prison after being found guilty of wire fraud, conspiracy to commit bank fraud and conspiracy to defraud the United States.

The reality star added, “Our whole system is so out of whack. Nothing makes sense.”

Meanwhile, she revealed that her mom, Julie Chrisley, is keeping busy by teaching real estate courses.

“Dad’s definitely taught some classes,” she said during Tuesday’s episode of her “Unlocked” podcast.

“She’s got all these certificates from teaching and completing classes and all these things,” the 26-year-old continued, adding that her mom has “always been” an “overachiever.”

By teaching and taking courses, Todd and Julie can reduce their original combined 19-year prison sentence due to the First Step Act, per Savannah.

The program was enacted in 2018 to assist with prisoner’s rehabilitation back into society.

“That’s what mom and dad’s reductions were. Were good time credits. FSA credits,” the former beauty queen furthered. “They get 15 days off for every 30 they spend [teaching]. Something of that nature.”

“It definitely has helped to reduce sentences for that we’re grateful,” she added.

Documents obtained by Page Six last month revealed the couple’s sentences had been shortened by more than a year.

Todd — who was originally sentenced to 12 years — got two years shaved off and is eligible to be released on Jan. 22, 2033, from the Federal Prison Camp Pensacola in Florida.

Meanwhile, Julie will be released on Oct. 19, 2028, from the Federal Medical Center, Lexington in Kentucky — which is 14 months sooner than her original seven-year sentence.

The husband and wife duo were locked up last year after being found guilty of forging fake documents to apply for loans.

Prosecutors also found Julie guilty of submitting fake bank statements and credit reports while attempting to rent a California home.

Despite taking the same route to get time shaven off their sentences, Savannah previously revealed that her parents haven’t had any contact with each other since reporting to prison earlier this year.

“195 days without a word to each other…” she wrote on her Instagram Stories in August. “My heart is breaking…”

The pair is also parents to sons Chase, 27, and Grayson, 17. Meanwhile, Todd shares daughter Lindsie, 34, and son Kyle, 32, with his ex-wife, Teresa Terry.
