(NewsNation) — Julie Chrisley is extending her time on TV months after she was released from prison with a new cooking show.
Julie Chrisley was on a recent episode of the “Chrisley Confessions” podcast, where she cohosts with her husband, Todd Chrisley, and he announced that she would be shooting the new show soon.
“I’ve been doing deep dives into comments that people have put on social media, whatever. And so many people want you to do segments of what you cooked while you were at summer camp,” he said, referring to her time behind bars. “So, I think that you do that. I think that you do some of those things.”
“I will incorporate some of that into it,” Julie Chrisley responded.
Julie Chrisley says she wants the show to be authentic and wants to cook things that people can actually make.
“I want it to be things that I actually cook, and I want it to be things that everybody else can cook,” she explained. “I don’t want it to be crazy ingredients that people have to go out here and search and find. I want the majority of it to be things that if you cook, that you would have in your pantry to cook.”
The Chrisleys go to prison
A federal grand jury in Atlanta indicted the Chrisleys on 12 counts of wire fraud, conspiracy to commit bank fraud and conspiracy to defraud the United States in 2019.
Prosecutors accused the Chrisleys of evading nearly $2 million in state taxes between 2008 and 2016 and hiding over $1 million from the IRS, according to E! News.
In 2022, Todd and Julie Chrisley were sentenced to a combined 19 years in prison for conspiring to defraud Atlanta-area banks out of more than $30 million in loans by submitting false documents and tax evasion.
Chrisleys pardoned by Trump
The Chrisleys were released from prison on May 28 after Trump pardoned the couple.
Their daughter, Savannah, a supporter of the president, advocated for their release and sought a presidential pardon.
