Lindsie Chrisleyis getting candid about her previous marriage and her current relationship.
During the episode, theChrisley Knows Beststars got candid about their relationship troubles, with Lindsie, 33, revealing that her estrangement with her father could be traced back to her time in college, and that it only grew after she and her now-ex-husbandWill Campbellbecame romantically involved.
“I kind of walked that journey alone up until really my last year of school and then, you know, had developed this relationship with Will on my own terms and then decided to get married on my own terms and have a child on my own terms,” she said on the podcast.
TheChrisley Knows Bestalum said that she thinks when you get married, “you look to your husband to be the things that your dad was” and when this didn’t happen in her nine-year-long marriage to Campbell, she struggled to come to terms with it.
“When I wasn’t getting that from my husband and knowing, I think, subconsciously, that I still needed that from my dad, but I was unwilling to say it because I was unwilling to acknowledge that there was a missing piece in my marriage,” she said.

Todd, 53, claimed he told Lindsie — whosplit from Campbell in July 2021— not to marry him. “I said to you, ‘Don’t do this. You’re not ready. You don’t know who you are yet. Live your life.’ I said, ‘I don’t want you cheated out of one second of your life,'” he said.
The fourChrisley Knows Beststars also discussed Lindsie’s new relationship, which sheannounced on Instagram last month, a year afterher divorce from Campbell was finalized.
She said that in her marriage, both she and Campbell “had a need there for each other,” whereas in her new relationship, both parties are very independent, which gives way to “other challenges.”
“We are two totally independent people who have created things for ourselves, and trying to navigate that is a whole other obstacle,” she said. “So you’re going to find obstacles in whatever situation that you find yourself in. It’s truly how you handle the situation and the communication on that.”

In yet another Chrisley crossover, Todd and Julie also appeared on Thursday’s episode ofCoffee Convos, Lindsie’s podcast withTeen Momstar Kail Lowry, and spoke more about Lindsie’s divorce.
“For Will to say… to diminish what you were doing to make a living and what we were doing, and are doing, go play on reality television,” Todd said. “Had you not been playing on reality television, he wouldn’t be able to subsidize his living today, so I’m proud of what I have done on reality television.”
