'RHOSLC' Star Jen Shah Shows Off New Tattoos As She Preps For Prison

Convicted "Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City" star Jen Shah has gotten two new tattoos honoring her husband and her children as she prepares to commence her prison sentence.

Shah was sentenced to a six-and-a-half year jail term for spearheading a hoax telemarketing scheme that targeted adults and is billed to begin serving time on Friday, February 17, 2023.

Shah, 49, is showing off a new tattoo on her left forearm as she braces up to begin her prison sentence. The former "RHOSLC" star took to her Instagram story to reveal she tatted the word "Keiki" on her left forearm, which is Hawaiian for "baby" or "child."

She also debuted another tattoo on her right arm, honoring her husband and children in cursive. She wrote, "Sharrieff, Omar, Sharrieff," which are the names of her husband and her two sons.

After she was handed her prison sentence, Shah tearfully apologized to her husband and sons. "I am profoundly and deeply sorry," Shah said.

The new tattoos come just days before she resumes her prison sentence. Shah was convicted of masterminding a telemarketing scheme that defrauded people, especially the elderly.

She's been sentenced to 6 and a half years in prison with extra conditions to be fulfilled for her to regain her freedom.

The television personality took to Instagram to make an appreciation post to her fans and her family for their support throughout her trial.

"Thank you to my loyal fans who have remained supportive through this tough, yet very enlightening time," she noted.

She added, "With the strength of my husband, children, close family, and friends - I am ready to tell my true story without any misrepresentations or editing present."

Shah previously turned down the chance to sit down and talk with "RHOSLC" producer Andy Cohen about the specifics of her trial and the circumstances surrounding her crime.

She announced on her Instagram page that she would not participate in the one on one due to clauses in her contract that allow the network to "legally make misrepresentations of me and my story, relating to any and all topics, prior to and during my participation."

Upon noting that her actions in the past have hurt many people, she explained that she would rather keep mute than continue the narrative.

"I would rather remain silent and wait until I am able to accurately share my story than continue having complete lies and misrepresentations about me smeared across the headlines," she stated. "I intend to speak and you will hear from me. I will share my story and this painful part of my life very soon."

In a now-deleted post on Instagram, the mother of two shared a cryptic message about the "truth" but almost immediately deleted it.

According to Page Six, she shared a post that read, "There's something about a woman with a loud mind that sits in silence, smiling, knowing she can crush you with the truth."

Although it's unclear what she meant, Shah will be required to make restitution payments to her victims equal to about 15% of her gross income over time.

"I am sorry. My actions have hurt innocent people. I want to apologize by saying, I am doing all I can to earn the funds to pay restitution," she said after hearing her sentence.

Even when her six and half years jail term elapses, Shah's freedom may not be fully reinstated as there are other conditions she must successfully meet before she is free.

According to TMZ, she must begin a mental health program after her jail term. The news outlet reports that she has to undergo the mental health program during the time of her supervised release, which is five years after her sentencing.

She'll also be required to continually take her medication unless otherwise stipulated by a medical professional. Her P.O. must also be aware of the mental health program she signs up for and needs to approve it.

Shah must also undergo a drug test at least twice during the mental health program to ascertain she has not relapsed into using.
