Faye Chrisley's career
Much of the public information about Faye's career revolves around her role on Chrisley Knows Best. The show premiered in March 2014 and revolves around Todd, his wife, and five children. Todd is widely considered unreasonable, controlling, easily irritated by the rest of the family members.
The show was recorded in Alpharetta and Roswell for the first three seasons before production shifted to Nashville, Tennessee. In addition to the original series, there have been three other spinoffs, Chrisley Confessions, Growing Up Chrisley, and What's Cooking with Julie Chrisley.
Since the show's premiere, Faye has been largely featured in all nine seasons. She is often seen voicing her opinions and providing nuggets of wisdom to her son and grandchildren. She is an integral part of the hilarious family dynamic that keeps the show going. Faye Chrisley's age also makes her one of the voices of reason on the show.

While Faye's results came back negative, that period was still quite difficult for the entire Todd family, given their history with Julie.
