Todd and Julie Chrisley Share Their Real Thoughts on Savannah’s The View Debut.
When reality television star Savannah Chrisley stepped onto the set of The View as a guest co-host, fans immediately knew the week could become one of the most talked-about moments in the show’s recent run. The daughter of Todd and Julie Chrisley, known from the hit series Chrisley Knows Best, joined the panel from February 17 to 20 while regular host Alyssa Farah Griffin was away on maternity leave.
Now, Savannah’s parents are sharing their honest reaction to her appearance — and their comments have sparked fresh conversation among fans of both the Chrisley family and the long-running daytime talk show.
A Bold Guest Appearance
Savannah’s stint on The View placed her at the iconic table alongside hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sara Haines, and Sunny Hostin. Known for its spirited political discussions and strong personalities, the show has often featured intense debates between panelists with differing viewpoints.
Savannah entered the experience fully aware of that dynamic.
Before the appearance even began, she made it clear that she planned to stay respectful while also standing firm in her own opinions. Her views often lean conservative, which meant she would likely find herself in discussions with hosts who sometimes hold different perspectives.
Still, Savannah appeared ready for the challenge.
And according to her parents, she handled it well.
Todd Chrisley’s Candid Reaction
During a recent episode of the Chrisley Confessions 2.0 podcast, Todd and Julie Chrisley shared their thoughts on Savannah’s week as a guest co-host.
Todd admitted that when he first heard about the opportunity, he had mixed feelings.
“I didn’t want Savannah to do it,” he explained, revealing that he initially worried about the environment she might face on the show.
However, he also clarified that he had respect for some of the hosts, particularly Whoopi Goldberg.
Todd described Goldberg as someone who had always shown kindness toward the Chrisley family. But when it came to the broader panel dynamic, he admitted he wasn’t sure what to expect.
At one point in the podcast, Todd used a vivid metaphor to describe how he felt watching his daughter step into the conversation.
He joked that while some people might assume Savannah was being led into a difficult situation, she was more than capable of holding her own.
In fact, he suggested she was quite skilled at defending herself during discussions.
Julie Chrisley Sees Opportunity
While Todd shared his concerns, Julie Chrisley took a slightly different perspective.
She described the experience as a valuable opportunity for their daughter.
Julie pointed out that The View has always been known for passionate discussions and different viewpoints. Anyone appearing on the show should expect a certain level of debate.
But she believes that stepping into a space where people think differently can be a powerful learning experience.
Julie explained that being part of those conversations could help Savannah grow, both personally and professionally.
Todd ultimately agreed with that point.
On-Screen Moments and Behind-the-Scenes Conversations
Savannah did not shy away from discussions during her time on the show. She openly shared her opinions on several topics, including political issues that have recently surrounded her family.
The Chrisley family has been widely discussed in the media in recent years, particularly after Todd and Julie were convicted in 2022 on charges related to tax fraud. In 2025, the couple received a presidential pardon from Donald Trump, a development that brought renewed attention to the family.
During her time on The View, Savannah addressed some of these issues directly while also engaging with the hosts on broader topics.
Despite the differences in viewpoints, she later said that the experience turned out to be more positive than she expected.
Speaking on The View’s official podcast, Savannah admitted that she initially thought some of the hosts might be difficult to deal with. However, she later revealed that she enjoyed several conversations with them behind the scenes.
Those private discussions helped change her perception of the experience.
Will Savannah Return to The View?
At the moment, there has been no official word on whether Savannah Chrisley will return to guest co-host the show again.
However, her appearance clearly made an impression on viewers.
Guest hosts frequently rotate through The View, and producers often bring back personalities who generate strong audience engagement.
Savannah herself has indicated that she would be open to returning if the opportunity arises.
And judging by her parents’ reaction, she would certainly have their full support.
For now, fans can continue watching The View weekdays at 11 a.m. ET, where a rotating lineup of guest hosts continues to join the panel while Alyssa Farah Griffin is away.
As for Savannah Chrisley, her appearance has added another chapter to the family’s ongoing story in the public eye — one that continues to capture attention across television, podcasts, and social media.
