Jen Shah will be reporting to prison on Friday with some new ink.
The former “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star got two new tattoos just days before she is scheduled to start her six-and-a-half year prison sentence for wire fraud.
Shah, 49, got the word “Keiki” — the Hawaiian term for “baby” or “child” — tattooed across the top of her left forearm.
Similarly, she got the names of her husband, Sharrieff Shah, as well as her two sons, Sharrieff Jr. and Omar, inked on the bottom of her right arm.
Jen was arrested in March 2021 for running a nationwide telemarketing scheme which targeted thousands of people, mainly the elderly.
Although she maintained her innocence for months, the reality TV star changed her plea to guilty at the last minute ahead of her trial in July 2022.
After learning her fate in early January, Jen’s attorney, Priya Chaudry, told Page Six that “Shah deeply regrets the mistakes that she has made” and hopes to make it up to those she impacted.
However, just two weeks later she posted — and deleted — a cryptic message about “the truth” to her Instagram Story.
“There’s something about a woman with a loud mind that sits in silence, smiling knowing she can crush you with the truth,” the quote read.
Despite seemingly having a lot to say about the situation, Jen has made it clear she won’t be sharing it with Andy Cohen.
“I will not be doing the 1:1 with Andy Cohen and Bravo,” the convicted fraudster revealed in an Instagram post last month.
“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 headlines.”
Nonetheless, Jen will have to pay $6.5 million in restitution and enter a mental health treatment program after she finishes her stint behind bars.
