Lindsie Chrisley’s sudden exit from Chrisley Knows Best is being put under the microscope.
During the Tuesday, September 2, episode of Lifetime’s The Chrisleys: Back to Reality docuseries, Savannah Chrisley recalled an alleged fight between Lindsie, 35, and Julie Chrisley that changed the dynamics of the family.
“I remember vividly one day [Lindsie] and my mom got into an argument because Lindsie went to wake up Chloe out of bed to do a social media post with her, and Chloe was already in bed,” Savannah claimed in a confessional interview. “Now if somebody did this to Lindsie’s child, she would have gone berserk.”
Julie, 52, and Todd Chrisley share three children: Chase, 29, Savannah, 28, and Grayson, 19. Todd also shares Lindsie, 35, and Kyle, 34, with his ex-wife, Teresa Terry.
In the Monday, September 1, episode of The Chrisleys: Back to Reality, viewers learned that Todd and Julie officially adopted Chloe Chrisley, 13, the biological daughter of Todd’s eldest son, Kyle, and his ex Angela Johnson.
“My mom went to my dad, told [Lindsie], ‘This can’t be happening. Chloe’s on a schedule,’ and Lindsie just started going absolutely insane,” Savannah alleged. “Yelling, screaming and calling my mom every name under the sun. ‘You stupid effing blah blah blah.’”
According to Savannah, “that’s when Lindsie’s time on the show came to an end.”
Chrisley Knows Best premiered in 2014 and followed the unpredictable life of Todd and his family. While Lindsie helped launch the show, she made her final appearance in season 5. Since then, Lindsie has been estranged from several Chrisley family members.
During Lifetime’s docuseries, producers played a clip from when Lindsie shared her perspective on the alleged incident.
“It was our last day of filming. She said that I woke up my niece,” Lindsie claimed on The Dr. Phil Show. “The altercation escalated and she shoved me at my neck.”
According to Chase, Lindsie’s interview with Dr. Phil McGraw was filled with “all this bulls***.”
“I’m just so paranoid about strangers being close to me,” Chase added when reflecting on his relationships today. “After blood will screw you over, then a stranger definitely will.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Lindsie’s rep for comment on the episode.
According to Todd, his daughter deciding to speak ill of his wife on The Dr. Phil Show was out of line.
“We never talked to her again after that instance there,” he said via a prison phone call. “We had no more involvement with her until after the indictment.”
The Chrisleys: Back to Reality continues with new back-to-back episodes on Lifetime Tuesday, September 9, at 8 p.m. ET with the finale airing September 16.
