Todd Chrisley and his wife Julie Chrisley stepped up to the plate and took custody of their granddaughter, Chloe, when it became clear that Todd’s son, Kyle couldn’t manage the responsibility. “Kyle is bipolar and normally, people that are bipolar, they seek out a way to self-medicate, which is what Kyle has done since he’s been young,” Chrisley told E! News of why he and Julie obtained custody of their granddaughter. “I want what’s best for him,” he added.
While Todd and Julie may have been doing what they thought was best by looking after Chloe, Kyle has a different opinion. Kyle has long maintained that his father only wanted to take custody of Chloe because it would make him look relatable on the show. “My dad showed no interest in Chloe at all until the show and until it was pointed out that having a mixed race child and getting her and all that would be good for his demographic,” Kyle lamented during a 2014 interview with The Daily Mail. “He didn’t want to see her before then. He said he wanted nothing to do with her.”
Though Kyle has fought the arrangement for years, Julie and Todd have long maintained it. Thanks to his legal troubles, including a 2019 drug arrest, it seemed unlikely that anything in the case would change, per Life & Style. It wasn’t until their 2022 bank fraud convictions that Chloe’s custody was once again up for debate.
