What did Julie and Todd Chrisley talk about in their recent podcast?

In the August 20 episode of Chrisley Confessions 2.0, Julie Chrisley also addressed the question about whether she and Todd faced difficulties reconnecting after their release from prison.

"First of all, and I want to be completely transparent. There is an adjustment period. It's not an adjustment. It's not an adjustment period in our marriage, per se. It's just an adjustment period back to life," Julie said.

Julie Chrisley highlighted that people were pointing out Todd "cutting her off" in the podcast. The Chrisley Confessions 2.0 podcast co-host also answered and said,

"Listen, Todd and I have been together for 31 years. Trust me when I say I can stand my own ground... I have stood with him for 31 years... Does he get a little lippy sometimes? Absolutely. And I have to know when I put him in this place, and just because you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't happen."

Further in the episode, the Chrisley Knows Best alum reiterated the adjustment period, adding that change is natural to come after what they went through. Referring to their time in prison, she said that after that, people see things differently and react differently.

While emphasizing the adjustment period, Julie Chrisley said that her marriage was "not struggling" and said that their marriage "survived prison." She noted that they were apart from each other for 28 months, during which they could only interact through emails.
