David Landsman, boyfriend of reality TV star Lindsie Chrisley, faces charges of aggravated assault-strangulation and battery following his arrest in Georgia. Cherokee County Jail records confirm the charges stem from an incident where officers observed visible injuries on Chrisley.
Details of the Altercation
Landsman contacted police after Chrisley confronted him about a lie, sparking an argument. Sources indicate Chrisley attempted to leave the scene, at which point Landsman became aggressive. Responding officers noted her injuries upon arrival. As of Friday evening, no bond has been set, according to online records.
Relationship Background
The couple has been romantically linked since last year. Weeks ago, Landsman posted an Instagram photo holding Chrisley’s hand, displaying what appeared to be an engagement ring. He captioned it, tagging her estranged father: “@toddchrisley may I have your daughter’s hand in marriage?” Reports confirm no engagement occurred.
Family Estrangement
Lindsie Chrisley remains estranged from her father, Todd Chrisley, and stepmother, Julie Chrisley. In a March 2025 episode of her podcast Southern Tea, she shared that she had not visited her father for over a year and had never seen her stepmother during her more than two years in prison.
“The last time I visited my dad probably was … was it the beginning of last year? I can’t even honestly remember,” Lindsie stated. She added, “[Nanny Faye and I] used to go together [to see my dad] when they first went [to prison].”
While her parents were imprisoned, Lindsie admitted, “I have not seen my dad in quite some time and I have had no contact. And that’s all I’m going to say for that.”
Parents’ Legal History
Todd and Julie Chrisley were convicted in June 2022 of tax evasion and bank fraud involving $30 million. Todd received a 12-year sentence, and Julie a seven-year term. Both were released in May 2025 after receiving a full pardon from President Donald Trump.
Lindsie and her brother Kyle are from Todd’s first marriage to Teresa Terry; Julie adopted them after marrying Todd. They appeared in the early seasons of Chrisley Knows Best, but family ties have strained since the convictions.
