<p id="par-1_7">Kandi Burruss is in Todd Chrisley’s corner. </p>

<p id="par-2_45">Recently, <a href=" Real Housewives of Atlanta</em></a><em> </em>star faced criticism after congratulating Todd’s son Chase on <a href=" parents’ presidential pardon</a>. Some of her fans weren’t impressed with her support of the <em>Chrisley Knows Best </em>stars, who were convicted of a multi-million dollar fraud scheme in 2022. </p>

<p id="par-3_17">The Bravo star refused to back down, defending her comment in a June 3 post on X. </p>

<p id="par-4_45">“What’s the problem? Todd & I were cool before he ever had this legal issue,” she wrote. “I’m happy that him & Julie are out of jail. What y’all so pressed for? Me being happy for them has nothing to do with my political beliefs.”</p>

<p id="par-5_24">Burruss stood firm in her position. But Todd was apparently worried that she might face repercussions for aligning herself with him and his family. </p>

<p id="par-6_46">“When I showed love to him I did get a little negativity online,” Burruss told <a href=" Kevin Frazier on the red carpet at <a href=" BET Awards</a> on June 9. “I don’t know why … of course I’m happy for my friend, you know what I mean?”</p>

<p id="par-7_12">Todd actually contacted her to make sure everything was OK, she shared. </p>

<p id="par-8_31">“He was just reaching out, telling me he doesn’t want to get any backlash because of him,” she said. “And his concern was more about me, which I thought was crazy.”</p>

<p id="par-9_20">Burruss added that she thought Todd’s comments about wanting to advocate for people in prison following his release were genuine.</p>

<p id="par-10_52">“I think he’s definitely a voice,” she said. “You got to remember, he always cared about minorities and issues that dealth with minorities. He’s raising a <a href=" who’s a young Black woman</a>, you know what I mean? So of course those issues, even if it doesn’t affect him personally, it affects him.”</p>
