The era of home-cooked Thanksgiving feasts for reality stars-turned-inmates Todd Chrisley and Josh Duggar is a distant memory. As the incarcerated duo spends their holiday in federal lockup, they won't be deprived of turkey. Here's a glimpse into what the former TV personalities will be dining on Thursday, Nov. 28.
A representative from FPC Pensacola in Florida informs The Post that Chrisley, 55, and his fellow inmates will have the option of baked ham or turkey for lunch. A non-meat alternative of tofu will also be available. The meal will be accompanied by traditional sides such as sweet potato casserole, cornbread dressing, green beans or collard greens, and cranberry sauce. Chrisley can enjoy pecan pie, though it likely pales in comparison to his mom's or wife's desserts. Fresh fruit will also be on offer at his facility.
Beyond food, Chrisley has other prison perks this holiday. "We are planning to follow the BOP holiday activity schedule, including time for softball, volleyball, and small hand game activities like checkers, chess, and card games," the FPC Pensacola representative shared with The Post.
The former "Chrisley Knows Best" star is currently serving time at the minimum-security facility after he and his wife, Julie, were convicted of bank fraud and tax evasion in 2022. He was recently dismissed from his job at the prison's chapel, but he continues to counsel fellow inmates both mentally and spiritually in his free time, according to his attorney, Jay Surgent.
This marks Todd and Julie's second Thanksgiving behind bars. While Todd is expected to be released in June 2032, Julie is set to be freed from her Lexington, Kentucky, prison in April 2028. Her resentencing hearing last month saw the judge uphold her 84-month sentence, a decision that left the family "extremely disappointed." Todd has expressed concern for Julie's health and welfare.
Duggar's low-security institution in Texas is also providing games and a special meal for the holiday weekend. The Post obtained FCI Seagoville's menu for Thursday, revealing that the former "19 Kids and Counting" star, 36, will receive a to-go bag for dinner featuring various Thanksgiving staples. His menu includes a choice of roasted turkey and glazed ham or veggie lasagna and dirty rice with soy and kidney beans. Lunch comes with cornbread dressing, turkey gravy, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, two rolls, and assorted pies.
Duggar can burn off those holiday calories by participating in several tournaments the prison offers this Thanksgiving season, including Monopoly, Dominoes, and handball. Additional activities like racquetball, Checkers, "Name That Tune," and more are available, provided inmates signed up in the leisure room beforehand. Events run from Thursday at 1 p.m. through Sunday, December 1, at 6:30 p.m.
The ex-TV star was sentenced to 12 years (151 months) in prison after a federal jury in Arkansas found him guilty in December 2021 on charges related to the receipt and possession of child pornography. Duggar isn't scheduled for release until Oct. 2, 2032.
Chrisley and Duggar aren't the only notable inmates spending the holidays behind bars. The Post also obtained Sean "Diddy" Combs' jail meal—and you won't believe what he'll be feasting on this Thanksgiving.
