AlthoughTodd Chrisleywon’t ever stop loving his eldest child, Lindsie, the father and daughter’s relationship continues to be strained.
In celebration ofNational Daughter’s Daythis week, theChrisley Knows Beststar, 50, posted loving and individual Instagram tributes to daughters Savannah and Chloe — and noticeably didn’t recognize Lindsie, 29, on the social media platform.
“Celebrating National Daughters Day, @savannahchrisley you have and are the most wonderful daughter any parents could ever ask for , you are kind , compassionate , funny, and beautiful (you get all of that from me but don’t tell your mom 😉) you are fiercely loyal and your faith in God inspires me always keep reaching , with all my heart , I love you with all my heart , always have , always will, …” Todd captioned a series of images of himself with Savannah, 22, on Thursday.
Shortly after he dedicated a post to theGrowing Up Chrisleystar, Todd shared a sweet smiling photo of himself and 6-year-old Chloe.
“And then there’s this little beauty , Happy Daughters day my sweet Chloe ..” wrote Todd. (Todd and his wife Julie have custody of granddaughter Chloe, whose father is Todd’s son, Kyle.)
Todd’s rep had no comment.

In response to Todd’s claims that Lindsie engaged in two extramarital affairs and appeared in a sex tape, her attorney Ghanayem 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, who won Andi Dorfman’s season ofThe Bachelorettein 2014, said 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.“
Despite the drama, the family patriarch said he stillhas unconditional love for Lindsie.
“She will always be my daughter, that will never change,” Todd said on an episode of his podcastChrisley Confessions. “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. She is forgiven.”
Todd continued: “She is forgiven for what’s happened in the last week to 10 days. She is forgiven for what has happened in this investigation that she has contributed to. She’s forgiven for what she’s gonna do today and tomorrow.” (Through her attorney, Lindise has denied reporting her father’s alleged crimes to authorities.)
But Todd also expressed his disappointment in the way all his children have treated one another recently.
“It is a shame that I have raised five children, and that the jealousy and the greed and the backstabbing that has been exhibited towards a sibling is unconscionable,” he said. “They’re going to be ashamed when something happens to each of them and then you can’t turn around say, ‘I’m sorry,’ because it’s too late.”
Earlier this month,Lindsie spoke out about the scandalsplaguing her famous family, saying that claims about her being made in the media in recent weeks had thrown her life into chaos.
Speaking on herCoffee Convos podcast, which she co-hosts withTeen Mom 2alum Kailyn Lowry, Lindsie opened up about her father and stepmom’stax evasion indictmentand claims that shecheated on her husband.
Lindsie pointed out she was estranged from Todd and stepmom Julie long before they were indicted for tax evasion and other financial crimes last month.
“To be perfectly honest, the years that were covered in the indictment, most of those years I was not in communication with my parents. So a lot of the years from like early on that they covered, I was in college so I wasn’t even like living at home.”
“And through college, I don’t know if I’ve shared my whole story or not, but through college I didn’t talk to my parents,” she continued. “So I definitely like would’ve had no knowledge of anything. And then in the later years that were covered, I believe that I was like already leaving the [Growing Up Chrisley] show. So I also wouldn’t have had any knowledge of like some of that stuff either.”
