Terry’s pregnancy was the pivotal point in their relationship and even she later said that they would not have married if she was not pregnant. The ceremony was a small one and in presence of 6 attendants, on both sides. During her first pregnancy, Teresa was not doing very well and Todd was extremely worried for her but as she encounters Chrisley changed a lot after the birth of their second child.
Teresa Terry: Abuse
Terry later talked about the trouble she had to go through when she was married to Todd. According to her, Todd became a control freak after her second pregnancy who got constantly irritated. He even tried to control Teresa’s hairdo and being constantly corrected by the man that you loved was understandably tiresome for her.
Terry later filed against Todd for conducting a campaign of mental abuse. And it was not just that, he was battering Teresa on multiple occasions. One of these occasions stands out where Chrisley kept battering her with a closed fist after she was stripped naked. There have even been allegations suggesting that he threatened to kill Teresa with a knife on his hand. Finally getting enough of him, Teresa filed for divorce in 1994 and the two separated soon.
