What’s going on with the rumors about Todd Chrisley having an affair?

Todd’s former business partner, Mark Braddock, claims that he had an affair with Todd at one point in time. He also alleges that they paid off a blackmailer who found out about their relationship to avoid getting outed. According to Cinema Blend, Todd’s lawyer denies the entire story.

Todd’s lawyer says that Mark is “obsessed" with Todd and has committed perjury by making up such a story.

According to Daily Mail, Mark says that his relationship with Todd felt like a “brotherhood." He also explained that things fell apart between them in 2012 when Todd kicked Mark out of his office and made threats to call the cops.

Mark says he admitted the details of his affair with Todd to his wife before taking the stand to testify. It turns out he was granted immunity for any financial legal troubles he was wrapped up in if he was willing to testify under oath.

During an appearance on The Dominick Nati Show via People, Todd said, “In order for it to disappoint me, it would mean that I don’t agree with someone being gay. I don’t believe that’s a choice that you make. I believe that you are the way that God has made you. I’m flattered that people think I can get laid on both ends.”

Todd has been married to Julie since 1996, which means their marriage has lasted for 26 years. Together they share three children: Savannah Chrisley, Chase Chrisley, and Grayson Chrisley.

Prior to Todd’s marriage to Julie, he was married to a woman named Teresa Terry between 1990 and 1996. Together they share Lindsie Chrisley and Kyle Chrisley.

As of now, Todd and Julie possibly face up to 30 years behind bars for the legal trouble they’re in. According to OK! their sentencing is scheduled for October and their judge recently denied the request to spend Thanksgiving in the Caribbean. Mark‘s testimony about an extramarital affair with Todd isn’t helpful to their case in the slightest.
