Todd Chrisleysaid he has forgivendaughter Lindsiefor her alleged extortion claims, but his younger daughter,Savannah,is not ready to do the same.
Savannah, 22, said she plans to cut Lindsie out of her life for good in light of theChrisley Knows Bestfamily drama.
“It’s extremely sad that my dad has a child of his that’s trying to make his life so miserable just because she wasn’t on the show and she didn’t get the attention that she wanted,” Savannah toldEntertainment Tonight. “It’s extremely sad that someone is using a sex tape that doesn’t even exist in order to get five more minutes of fame.”

The reality star alleged that her father, 50, and brother Chase, 23, harassed and threatened her over an alleged sex tape, and claimed they would release the video if she refused to “lie about an incident,” according toTMZ.
In her interview withET, Savannah denied the existence of a sex tape and shot down speculation that Todd and Chase could wind up behind bars because of it.
“What father would want to see something like that?” she said. “They’re not gonna spend any time in prison, because it’s not something that they’ve done. … I hate that my parents are going through something like this. It’s heartbreaking to see, and it’s heartbreaking to see that one of their children have contributed to it.”

Savannah said her relationship with her sister has been fractured beyond repair.
“Sometimes there’s no going back, and I can say for me personally, no. I love her, but no,” Savannah said of whether she will ever forgive Lindsie.
Both Chase and Todd denied Lindsie’s extortion claims in statements to PEOPLE, with Chase saying he did not understand “why she’s doing this to our family.”
Todd, meanwhile, alleged that Lindsie has been intimately involved with formerBachelorettecontestants.

In response to Todd’s claims that Lindsie engaged in two extramarital affairs and appeared in a sex tape, her attorney said in a statement to PEOPLE, “Lindsie would like nothing more than to be left alone and go about her own business,” adding, “Unfortunately, certain members of her family will not let her live in peace. We are flabbergasted at the audacity of Todd and Chase Chrisley, who are more focused on attacking my client rather than defending themselves against the allegations of criminal conduct. … Lindsie prays for a just outcome so that she can go forward with her life safe from those who are looking to do her harm.”
Murray, 35, said of the Chrisley family in a statement toAccess, “They should probably focus on how not to be imprisoned for 30 years rather than spreading gossip to try and hurt their daughter.”
Hayes, 30, admitted to being the man in the alleged sex tape but said he and Lindsie had not known they were being filmed. “We got caught on the security camera, basically,” he claimed on BLEAV’sHousewives and Vanderpumppodcast. “It was a puppy camera in her friend’s living room, the couch we crashed on.”
Meanwhile, Toddaddressed the family dramaon his podcastChrisley Confessions, saying he was not holding any grudges against Lindsie.
“She will always be my daughter, that will never change. She is my first-born child, and she is loved, and this is her moment for her to say whatever she wants to say, regardless of whether or not it’s true or not,” he said. “She is forgiven.”
