Julie Chrisley Net Worth $4 Million

Julie`s childhood didn`t look like the one that is described in most books; she grew up in a trailer home with her parents, and a brother who later killed himself at the age of 25. Julie led a simple life, however it all changed when she met her future husband, Tom Chrisley in the mid-’90s. Julie soon became pregnant, which led to their wedding in 1996, only two weeks before Julie gave birth to their first child, Chase. Tom had already been married, and had two children with Teresa Terry.

In the following years, Tom became one of the most successful of real-estate agents, which increased the family`s net worth considerably. However, his career went into a slump, and they were obliged to declare bankruptcy – there were reports in the media that Tom had a credit debt at over $49 million in total, which may seem somewhat pessimistic.

In addition to their money problems, in 2012 Julie was diagnosed breast cancer, which couldn’t be kept quiet when Julie underwent a double mastectomy. However, after a few months, Julie had fully recovered and recuperated.

In 2014, the family was approached by producers Adam Greener, Jim Sayer and Stephanie Chambers to create a reality TV show “Chrisley Knows Best”, which would revolve around their everyday lives. Partly in order to avoid complete bankruptcy, they accepted the offer and they soon began with the shooting of the show. The first episode was aired on the 11^th March 2014, and received positive critiques, as well as drawing an audience of over a million viewers. The family originally signed a contract for two seasons, but due to the positive reception it had with public, the show was extended to a third season, which subsequently had 18 episodes in total, as opposed to the previous series’ which had only 12.

This show has put Julie and her family back on track, as it has certainly increased her popularity and net worth as well. Over the seasons, the Chrisley`s have become one of the familys’ most loved by the US public, as demonstrated by their show continuing to gather more than 1.5 million viewers for each episode.

Overall, Chrisley has come a long way from living a very modest life in a trailer, to a big family of five children, as she has given birth to her second and third children, living in a relatively  luxurious home in Roswell, Georgia USA, a rather unique story of rags-to-riches-to-rags-to-riches… or is it!
