A Glimpse Of Faye Chrisley And Her Family 

Faye and her late husband share two sons: Todd Chrisley and Randy Chrisley, raised in Westminster, South Carolina.

Todd Chrisley was born on 6th April 1969 in Georgia, United States, and grew up in Westminster. He is a businessman, and a reality television star, who starred in Chrisley Knows Best, which began on March 11, 2014.

Talking about Todd's relationship status, he has married twice. He married his then-wife, Teresa Terry, when he was just 21 while Teresa was 19. Teresa was also pregnant with their elder child Lindsie Chrisley while getting married.

After starting their marital life, they welcomed their son, Kyle Chrisley. But, their relationship couldn't last longer than seven years, as Teresa decided to part ways with Todd in 1996 because of domestic violence.

As per MailOnline, Todd got charged with domestic violence against Teresa.

"In court documents seen by MailOnline, Chrisley is accused of waging a 'campaign of mental and physical abuse,' of 'battering' his ex-wife multiple times, once with 'his closed fist' after stripping her naked. In a string of allegations, all hotly contested by Chrisley, it is claimed that he wielded a knife and threatened to kill her and that, on one occasion, she witnessed him beating his own mother."

The relationship had a bitter end, but his first marriage experience didn't stop Todd from getting married again. 

After the divorce from Teresa, Todd got involved in a marital relationship with Julie Chrisley in 1996.

Todd Chrisley has a negative net worth of around $5 million, which shows that the businessman is in debt.

Talking about the debts, back in April 2014, Todd, along with the business debt, had mortgages topping $12 million, owed the IRS more than $500,000, and even had a loan worth $4.4million from his former beauty queen wife, Julie.

His money troubles brought him to be such low that he forced his mother out of her home. Although Todd claimed to be a millionaire on the show, he got disabled in debt and could no longer afford the upkeep of his mother's home.

Randy Chrisley is the younger son of Faye Chrisley, who is indeed a low-profile personality. While the Chrisley family doesn't give the details about Todd's sibling- Randy, he supposedly has a son.

Randy was diagnosed with stage four cancer in 2014, as confirmed by the representative of Todd-

"Todd Chrisley and his family are saddened to announce that his younger brother, Randy, has been diagnosed with stage four cancer."

Further, Faye has five grandchildren Savannah, Lindsie, Kyle, Chase, and Grayson, who jointly feature in the American reality show with their parents.

The Harsh Truth Behind All The Smile

Behind all the laughs that the wonderful granny shares with the world, her childhood had been quite hard. Even though the family seems to splurge money now and lives a luxurious life, The Chrisley Knows Best star Nanny Faye did not always live a lavish lifestyle. 

Nanny Faye gets upset with three grandchildren in one of the show episodes upon seeing them using their phones. While she gets counter questioned on similar behavior by Grayson, She reveals how in her childhood, she didn’t get to enjoy all these privileges. She says-

"I think about how hard I had to work, milking cows every morning at 4:30 in the morning, and then going to feed the hogs and the chickens...Y'all couldn't survive one week on what I had to do." 

It can be seen that she didn’t always have all these privileges, and she is grateful and values all she has now. It is good to see the 77-year-old enjoying her best life now and staying happy.

Love these children. But I like them more when they go gambling with me
