Kyle Chrisley has a history of prior arrests and public disclosures about his health. In May 2019, he was arrested in Oklahoma for alleged drug possession.

At that time, reports stated he also had an outstanding warrant related to alleged death threats toward a former partner, though those charges were later dropped when the ex did not cooperate.

In September 2019, Chrisley spoke on the “Chrisley Confessions” podcast about a suicide attempt, saying,

“I take medication, and I had a bad side effect to it, and I tried to take my own life.” He added, “With the meds, I got all kinds of crazy thinking going on.”

In March 2023, Chrisley was detained for aggravated assault after an alleged altercation with his boss involving a knife. His wife, Ashleigh Chrisley, denied the claims, stating,

“Kyle has a knife that he carries for work, but he did not pull it out or brandish it.”

She also said the incident began as “a verbal disagreement.” Todd Chrisley has previously stated that his son was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and would “struggle for life.”
