Savannah Chrisley spoke about her "new normal" after her parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, were sentenced to prison.
Savannah, 25, revealed she has custody of her brother Grayson, 16, and niece Chloe, 10, while opening up about her "really painful and really difficult future" without Todd, 53, and Julie, 49, at home on Monday's episode of the "Unlocked" podcast.
"I may come home without both of my parents. That's what the chances are," she said in the episode, which was released hours before her parents' court hearing, Page Six reported. "That's the likelihood, and that's my new normal."
The "Growing Up Chrisley" alum got emotional as she talked about celebrating the holidays without them and having custody of her sibling and niece.
"I come home Tuesday, and I have custody of a 16-year-old and a 10-year-old, and we spend our first Thanksgiving not as a family," she said, before explaining that she has "never been away from" her family over the holidays.
Savannah went on to share that taking over Grayson and Chloe's custody was the "hardest part" of her mom and dad's legal battle.
"[I'm] trying to navigate how you teach two younger children who aren't fully developed yet and ... get them to understand the circumstances," she told her listeners. "That's a really, really difficult thing."
She promised that she would give them "love and hugs," which she believes they "need more than anything right now."
She did not address her younger brother's recent car accident.
Grayson was hospitalized after sustaining injuries in a car accident in Nashville, Tennessee, earlier this month. He droved into the back of a stopped vehicle, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department confirmed to People.
Grayson was reportedly unable to recall anything from the accident, possibly due to a head injury. He was transported to the hospital by an ambulance following the crash.
"Grayson was in a horrific car accident on the interstate and we got the phone call that we had to get to him," Todd shared in the Nov. 17 episode of the "Chrisley Confessions" podcast. "I ran out of the house, you know, jumped in the car and found him on the interstate."
He added, "The highway patrol was there. Traffic was lined up for miles and miles. His car was totaled."
Todd was sentenced to 12 years in federal prison, while his wife, Julie, got seven after they were found guilty of tax evasion and fraud. Their accountant, Peter Tarantino, was also sentenced to 36 months in prison for defrauding banks and the IRS on his clients' behalf.
