Julie Chrisley appeared in court on Wednesday, September 25, for her resentencing hearing. The Chrisley Knows Best star was resentenced to the same 84 months she initially received. However, fans were interested to hear reports of how Julie looked when she walked into the courtroom. Keep reading to see what they’re saying about Julie’s unrecognizable look.
Julie Chrisley Sported Brown Hair In Court
The Chrisley Knows Best star appeared before a judge at the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia in downtown Atlanta. In the end, the judge ruled that her original punishment was sufficient.
Savannah Chrisley and Chase Chrisley were both in the courtroom for the hearing, but Julie didn’t look like her normal self.
Julie Chrisley is known for her Southern charm and big blonde hair. In court on Wednesday, she sported brown hair and looked nothing like she did on television. During her appearance, she took a moment to address the court. In tears, she apologized for what she did to land herself in prison. Julie also addressed her children, apologizing to them for what they’ve had to go through as a result of her actions.
“I would like to say I’ve had years to think about what I’ve wanted to say and I’m sorry for my actions and situations that led us to where we are today,” the reality TV icon said. “I’ve had 20 months in prison, but it has been much more leading up to the trial and I apologize for my actions that led to where we are today,”
“I have done everything I can do to get closer to my family. I’ve taken tests for new skills, such as driving a forklift and serving food in proper ways … this has been the most difficult part of my life. I can’t ever repay my children for what they’ve had to go through and for that, I am so sorry,” she concluded.
No Photos Of Julie From Court On Wednesday
Chrisley fans took to Reddit to discuss the outcome of Julie’s court appearance as well as her new look.
- “It’s easier for her to colour her hair than highlights,” one Reddit user pointed out, referring to resources available in prison.
- “Well PEOPLE needs to publish an image! Lol,” another person wrote, hoping to see a photo of Julie in court.
- A third person chimed in, “I’m hoping TMZ will drop one. Lol.”
- “Brown hair huh…guess she wasn’t a true blonde like they all want to portray,” a fourth laughed.
Unfortunately for people who are curious, there won’t be any photos of Julie in the courtroom. Federal court does not permit photos or videos of the inmates in court. There could potentially be a drawing released, but that is the most people will see.
As fans know, Julie Chrisley initially received a seven-year sentence in November 2022 for fraud and tax evasion. Her husband, Todd Chrisley, was hit with a 12-year sentence.
They immediately began appealing their case in December 2022, but both reality TV stars had to report for their prison sentences in January 2023. In April 2024, a judge granted Julie’s appeal, and her sentence was vacated due to insufficient evidence. Todd’s sentence, on the other hand, was upheld.
