Lindsie Chrisleyis speaking out about the scandals plaguing her famous family, saying that claims about her being made in the media over the past few weeks have thrown her life into chaos.
Speaking on herCoffee Convos podcast, which she co-hosts withTeen Mom 2alum Kailyn Lowry, Lindsie, 29, opened up about her father and stepmom’stax evasion indictmentand claims that shecheated on her husbandwith stars fromThe Bachelorfranchise.
Lindsie pointed out she was estranged from dad Todd Chrisley and stepmom Julie long before they were indicted for tax evasion and other financial crimes last month.
“To be perfectly honest, the years that were covered in the indictment, most of those years I was not in communication with my parents. So a lot of the years from like early on that they covered, I was in college so I wasn’t even like living at home.”

“And through college, I don’t know if I’ve shared my whole story or not, but through college I didn’t talk to my parents,” she continued. “So I definitely like would’ve had no knowledge of anything. And then in the later years that were covered, I believe that I was like already leaving the [Growing Up Chrisley] show. So I also wouldn’t have had any knowledge of like some of that stuff either.”
The couple has maintained their innocence,pleading not guiltyto the charges.
“I just find it a little ironic that there is some blame game things going on and I just really had no involvement in that,” she said.
“I just really don’t appreciate it. I personally don’t think that the statements that were made were in good taste and people have to understand like what led me to this point.”
She also mentioned her current estrangement from her family, saying that she hasn’t “aired any dirty laundry” after she left the show.
Lindsie has been at odds with her family after she accused Todd of attempted extortion after the tax evasion indictment.
Later, theChrisley Knows Bestpatriarch said that he forgives Lindsie despite the drama.
“She will always be my daughter, that will never change,” Todd said in an episode of his podcastChrisley Confessions. “She is my first-born child, and she is loved, and this is her moment for her to say whatever she wants to say, regardless of whether or not it’s true or not. She is forgiven.”
