Career
An Early Start
In a sense, Chrisley was born into his current career as the son of Todd Chrisley.
Todd Chrisley is a Nashville businessman who claimed to be a self-made billionaire. Todd Chrisley maintained that his money came from his real estate investments, but was never really forthcoming about where he got the money for his lavish lifestyle.
In 2014, USA Today executives were intrigued by Chrisley’s lifestyle, unexplained sources of wealth and his domineering parental style.

After Todd approached the network, USA agreed that the Chrisley family would make for an entertaining reality show. They were right.
The show brought in good ratings and was marketed as a “southern version” of the wildly popular show about the Kardashian family.
Money Troubles
In that same year, People magazine reported that the Chrisley family was hugely burdened by millions of dollars in debt that they could not pay.
Todd Chrisley had filed for both personal bankruptcy and corporate bankruptcy in 2012. The bankruptcy court trustee highlighted lavish spending despite the Chrisley family’s lack of income.
The show’s debut in 2014 may have saved the Chrisley family from poverty. It certainly made them a lot of money.

Real Family Drama
The oldest son of the Chrisley clan, Kyle Chrisley, has publicly stated that everything on the reality show is scripted and false.
Kyle had a public falling-out with his family after he was hospitalized for drug rehabilitation in 2013.
On the television show, Todd Chrisley said that he spent millions of dollars to help Kyle get clean, while Kyle filed legal papers claiming that his father didn’t contribute anything to his treatment.
In 2018, Kyle Chrisley stated that he had been sober since 2014 and was moving on with his own family and his own life.
He also stated that he would no longer have any contact with any member of the Chrisley family.
Chase Chrisley has avoided any mention of the issue and has refused to speak to the media about the family dispute. This probably helped him stay on the public’s good side.

Chase Takes Off
It was clear from the start of the Chrisley Knows Best series that Chase would be a star in his own right.
His troublemaking antics, inability to please his father and charming on-air personality were a key part of the show’s popularity.
He also avoided getting entangled in any of the family dramas or controversies. He played up his relationship with his sister Savannah.
He also displayed a softer side to his mother and grandmother, showing that there was still a sweet young man under the goofy guy who was always playing pranks.

Spinoff Success
In 2019, Chase and his sister Savannah were given the green light for their own spinoff show, Growing Up Chrisley.
Audiences had always enjoyed the relationship between these two siblings. Their humorous relationship and their popularity with fans gave the USA network the idea to create a spinoff.
The show follows Chase and Savannah as they move from Nashville to Los Angeles to pursue their dream careers.

Chase is hoping to become an actor. Savannah wants a job in the beauty industry. They both plan to also continue appearing on the original show.
In an interview about the show, Chase expressed relief that they would no longer be under their father’s thumb.
His sister said that she didn’t think that would be entirely possible. It’s true that their father made the whole family into stars, but it’s also true that the two want to try to “fly with their own wings” in Chase’s words.
Current Status
Chrisley has used his status on the original reality show to define his own celebrity image.
He and Savannah are the only family members to get their own spinoff, despite repeated attempts by other members.
Chrisley also hosts his own podcast, the Chase Chrisley Podcast.
Chrisley has a highly active social media profile. He has more than 490,000 followers on Facebook, 286,000 followers on Twitter and more than 950,000 followers on Instagram.
