Chase Chrisley has been through a bit of upheaval lately in his family life, and decided to grab a few days in (where else?) Miami.

The “Growing Up Chrisley” star — whose famous parents Todd and Julie Chrisley are currently locked up for bank fraud and tax evasion — was pictured with his fiancee Emmy Medders outside of South Beach eatery Papi Steak Friday night.

By the looks of Medders’ social media, the Nashville-based pair had a great time, staying at the Hotel Greystone. The Georgia native’s pictures contained uplifting, positive captions; e.g.,“Sunshine and palm trees make me happy.” (Us, too, which is why we live here.)

In another snap, the personal assistant, 27, sits on a beach, telling her followers that she experienced “a weekend that was good for the soul.”

The quickie trip to Florida comes roughly a month after Chrisley’s parents began their combined 19-year prison sentence.

Could be the 26-year-old real estate agent was in the Sunshine State to visit with dad up north; the “Chrisley Knows Best” patriarch will spend the next 12 years behind bars at the Federal Prison Camp in Pensacola.

Meanwhile, mom is over at the Federal Medical Center in Lexington, Kentucky, where she is set to serve a seven-year stretch.

Depending on when the wedding is, maybe one parent can show. The TV couple are reportedly working on an appeal.
