Todd Chrisley and Family Taking Legal Action Against Nancy Grace Exclusive
Exclusive News!
One of our favorite shows period is Chrisley Knows Best. Like the rest of the world, we were shocked when Nancy Grace tried to make the accusation that Todd Chrisley and his family are living off of welfare, especially when we recently exclusively discovered Todd’s Granddaughters Mother had been arrested for trying to manipulate the welfare system. While we didn’t put stock in what Grace said, we have learned via research that the Chrisley family is planning to sue Grace for her inflammatory comments. Read on for details.
Todd Chrisley Nancy Grace Lawsuit Happening Exclusive
During her show, Grace tried to insinuate that Todd and his family receive welfare benefits. When a reporter on the phone tried to speak up to explain to her that she was incorrect, and that a story had been released about his granddaughters Mom doing so, they were shot down and overpowered by Grace. Grace also took to Twitter to issue a tweet, saying, “Multi-millionaire reality star of #ChrisleyKnowsBest lives a life of luxury- but could his family be receiving welfare?”and said on the episode that, “We learn.. his family on welfare,” which is a blatant lie.
Again, to reiterate what we said above, Todd’s Granddaughter’s Mother, Angela Johnson, was actually the one who had been arrested for medicare fraud, and through research we were able to confirm this had absolutely nothing to do with Todd or his family.
When asked about this part, Todd exclusively told us, “We love Chloe’s mother Angela. We stand by her. And we hope that whatever situation she is involved in will be dealt with quickly, so that she can get on with her life.”
After Grace’s inflammatory insinuation, where she said, “Known as patriarch of perfection. He’s made a living off his ostentatious lifestyle in the lap of luxury. As millions watching week after week. But tonight is his family actually receiving welfare?” Todd’s son, Chase, took to social media immediately to refute the claims, tweeting, “nobody in our family is, you must be really desperate for ratings..”
In addition, Todd also tweeted that “you have to pray for this woman, she’s a bitter soul.” He also took time to point out Grace’s lack of credibility, posting a Wikipedia screenshot showing that she had been accused in 2006 of embellishing the story of her fiance’s 1979 murder in her book Objection!. This article was in The New York Observer and written by Rebecca Dana. In the article, Dana specifically said sources “contradict Ms. Grace when it comes to other salient facts of the crime and trial.” In another article of the same vein in March of 2007 in Rolling Stone, Keith Olbermann stated, ““Anybody who would embellish the story of their own fiancé’s murder should spend that hour a day not on television but in a psychiatrist’s chair.”
To this, Todd commented that, “Shocking that @NancyGraceHLN was accused of embellishing a story, Worry less about my money & more about my ratings.”
Grace also was involved in the past in a suicide scandal, where a guest named Melinda Duckett committed suicide after an interview with Grace. Duckett’s Grandfather had gone on record at the time with The Orlando Sentinel to say, “Nancy Grace and the others, they just bashed her to the end. She was not one anyone ever would have thought of to do something like this,” insinuating that Grace- and other media- scrutinizing Duckett had led her to kill herself. Grace ended up in litigation over this and ended up having to create a $200,000 trust fund to find Duckett’s son, who had been missing.
Through extensive research, we have learned exclusively that the Chrisley family is planning on taking legal action against Grace for her slanderous and flat out lies via her claim that they are on welfare benefits. The family, we have learned, has retained Marty Singer, who is one of the most powerful Hollywood and Entertainment lawyers in the business.
From this point forward, Todd noted that, “We will let our attorney handle it from here.”
This definitely sounds like it is shaping up to be an interesting case, and we know that the Chrisley’s will come out victorious.
Stay tuned for more details.
