Lindsie Chrisleyis providing more insight into why she chose not participate in an upcoming documentary about her family.
On the latest episode of PodcastOne’sSouthern Tea with Lindsie Chrisley, theChrisley Knows Bestalum, 33, explained that she declined to take part in the doc as her parents Todd, 54, and Julie, 50, would not have the opportunity to speak for themselves amid their ongoingprison sentences.
“I just decided that I’m not going to participate in something that one, I don’t even know what the heck’s going on. What could they possibly document that would even be relevant that anyone doesn’t already know?” she explained
“[It’s] not really worth my time and also not fair to people…they would be documenting about people who can’t potentially defend themselves in the event that they would need to defend themselves,” she added of her parents.

OnInstagramlast week, Lindsie shared that she wanted to “address a rumorfloating around about a possible documentary” about her family. Though “some family was approached to participate” in the project, she has chosen to abstain from appearing.
“I respectfully declined and do not plan to participate in any project that doesn’t allow for everyone’s voice to be heard,” she explained. “We all have a story, there’s always multiple sides and the truth lies somewhere in the middle.”
In noting how “lots of hard conversations and personal life decisions have happened this summer,” Lindsie continued: “I’ve learned to sit quietly with God instead of trying to figure everything out on my own.
“He takes my anxiety and replaces it with peace, wisdom and security,” she added. “I trust in him.”

“We cannot discuss the case because the appealhas now been — however they do it — I think it was filed yesterday or the day before yesterday,” Todd said on the couple’sChrisley Confessionspodcast before reporting to prison. “Our attorneys noticed the courts that they were appealing this. So we’re not allowed to discuss it, so don’t think we’re avoiding wanting to tell you something because we’re not. It’s that we’ve been told we cannot.”
