This arrest follows a previous incident involving her ex-boyfriend, David Landsman, who was arrested for aggravated assault and accused of strangling Chrisley. Landsman claimed she hit him, but Chrisley stated he grabbed her neck. She requested a restraining order against him, citing his menacing behavior after their breakup.
Chrisley has been estranged from her father, Todd Chrisley, and step-mother, Julie, for years. In a podcast episode, she revealed that she hadn't visited Todd in over a year while he was in prison for fraud and tax evasion.

Todd and Julie were convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud in 2022 but were later pardoned. Lindsie's relationship with her family has been complicated by their legal issues, and she has chosen to keep her distance from them. The Chrisley family's public image has been affected by these personal struggles, impacting their reality show and public perception.
