Todd and Julie Chrisley have confirmed that Todd’s mother, Elizabeth “Nanny Faye” Chrisley, is currently battling cancer.
In their first Chrisley Confessions podcast episode released since they were convicted on federal fraud charges, Todd and Julie discussed a variety of topics, including the rumors surrounding Nanny Faye’s health.
“My mother was diagnosed with bladder cancer,” Todd stated, adding that she is undergoing weekly treatments.
“We are struggling to get through that, and we’re asking for God to lift her up and keep a healing hand on her, and to help us help her get through this,” he said.
Julie confirmed that Nanny Faye was diagnosed last fall, but did not want the public to know about her diagnosis.
“We’ve kept it private because she wanted it to be private,” Todd added. “But because of the court case, that came out and a lot of people have picked up on it, and a lot of people have bombarded us.”
Todd said that, due to his and Julie’s trial, the press has been overwhelming his family, including Nanny Faye.
We’ve had the press outside of our door, sitting at the end of our street with long lens cameras, trying to get photographs of us… and showing up at my mother’s home.”
“I would ask that the people that are doing this respect that she is 77 years old, and that she is in a battle for her life,” he added. “We’re struggling with that, and doing the treatments and being optimistic, and placing her in God’s hands. I pray multiple times a day that God keep a healing hand on her.”
Nanny Faye was recently called to testify during Todd and Julie’s trial. At one point, she stated that she often forgets things.
“I’ve got a lot of age on me, a lot of water under the bridge,” she said, according to Insider‘s coverage of the trial. “So I don’t remember some things.”
As The Ashley previously reported, Todd and Julie were on trial after being charged with conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bank fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States and tax fraud. (Julie was also charged with wire fraud and obstruction of justice.) The Chrisley Knows Best stars were found guilty on all charges on June 7.
Todd and Julie each face up to 30 years in prison for their crimes. Their lawyer has stated that the Chrisleys plan to appeal the conviction.

I love the reality show.It made me laugh and I love the reality show. It made me laugh and Bless Todd and Julie.
And I hope they come out Sam.And also blessed fanye
I am not sure that you will read this or that they will allow you to get it. I am a fan, and I would love to see Nanny cured from her cancer. So I know some things she can help her. 1. Lemon juice and water Constantly. No dr is going to approve what I am telling you. So the next thing is B17, it is a mineral apricots seeds daily, 2 to 6 a day. Ivermectin 1.87 horse paste. An eraser size 2 times a day. Follow this protocol until you are cured. And listen to dirt road discussion Sunday and Wednesday night at 6pm.i really hope you win your battle. God Bless.
I will keep your family in my prayers. I really love your show ❤️ It brought me happiness because I am so angry with our government and the previous president and with what’s going on now.
I wish you all the best. We love your show and Nanny Faye I sure hope God sends you a quick complete recovery. I am praying that these charges will not hold, your family is so inspiring and funny. We love and wish you all the best.
Todd and Julie both knew Nanny Faye was sick while they peered lying and stealing God didn’t lead them to this greed did on National TV
You’re right. I did not like it when Savannah said that God let her down God did not let her or any of them down they let God down by what transpired you cannot get away with anything because God sees everything that you do. Catches up In The end. They do the crime they will have do the time. No special privileges
Poor Nanny Faye. You would think that Todd and Julie would be asking God for the miracle of healing for her , instead of asking God for the miracle of winning an appeal for themselves. Damn Narcassistic jerks.
Sending love and prayers to Faye and the entire Chrisley family.
Savannah stated that she feels that God let her down the Chrisley’s let God down
Savannah says she feels let down by God. God did not do that that that all is not God’s doing it seems like they need to seek the love of God right now and should have been seeking the love of God everything comes out the truth always comes out they should have known that they would never get away with that cuz God sees everything my prayers are with nannny Faye now I understand why they had so many nice houses and cars and everything it all catches up In The end
Savannah, don’t ever blame God for anything!!! God didn’t put us in the world to cheat, steal, or murder!!! We have a free choice in this lifetime and we can choose to live a righteous one or a greedy self-serving one. You choose what you become.
It’s a witch hunt , how do you think the mega rich stay rich through tax evasion all kinds of fraud , go after all the rest , Steven Segel left America because they where after him
Bless nanny Faye!
