Jen Shah from The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is crediting her legal woes with improving her marriage. Jen and Sharrieff Shah had an odd relationship since the coach was always calm and motivated, while his wife was known for her tantrums. The arrest looks like it may have changed Jen's attitude. She seems mellower, which is probably helping the couple to move forward in their union.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City viewers were stunned when they learned back in March that Jen had been arrested by the FBI. While she was a firecracker onscreen, most fans couldn't even have imagined what was going on behind the scenes. Jen and her assistant Stuart Smith have been accused of selling lead lists that target elderly victims. They allegedly did this in order to sell services that the victims never received. Jen was said to be the brains of the operation. If she is found guilty, the felony charges could put Jen from RHOSLC behind bars for 30 years.
Jen shared her true thoughts on Bravo's Spilling Iced Tea, telling viewers that in America, she is innocent until proven guilty. Jen has always maintained her innocence. The mother of two truly feels that this is the biggest test so far in her life, and believes that everyone around her is also being tested. Additionally, Jen shared that she was leaning on her family for support and spending quality time with her husband and two sons. As for Coach Shah, Jen had this to say: "He's so inspiring. Throughout this entire ordeal, it has really, it has brought us closer than ever." Check out the interview below:
In sneak peeks of the season, Jen from RHOSLC has shared her thoughts, telling cameras that she is worried about not seeing her sons for a long time. In the trailer, Coach Shah is seen comforting her when she opens up about her arrest. Jen has always called her husband her guardian angel and made a point of saying that he was getting fed up with her outbursts. Real Housewives fans learned that Sharrieff actually packed his bags and left. This incident made Jen want to fight for her marriage.
It seems to Bravo viewers that the couple usually has a ride or die mentality. However, there are reality TV fans who wonder just what RHOSLC's Jen's partner thinks of the allegations. According to Jen, her husband is nothing but supportive about the situation, but many are curious about what he says behind closed doors. Jen's trial was supposed to start in October, but due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, the judge changed the date to March 2022. Until then, Coach Shah will have to get a lot of motivational talks in so Jen can keep her cool.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City airs Sunday at 9 p.m. EST on Bravo.
