Jen Shah celebrates anniversary with husband as prison sentence gets reduced again

Jen Shah celebrated her 31st wedding anniversary behind bars as Page Six exclusively learned she will now be free in August 2026 after her sentence was reduced again.

The “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” alum took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a photo of herself in a prison jumpsuit while cuddling up to her husband, Sharrieff Shah, at Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas.

The reality star and her spouse posed in front of a colorful backdrop decorated with hearts and lips, with Jen’s husband pointing to her while holding a sign that read, “Period.”

“Happy 31st Anniversary today to me and my baby!” Jen captioned the photo.

“Words cannot express how much I love and appreciate you. You bring so much joy to my life & I am forever thankful for your overwhelming love and support as we approach this next chapter.”

Jen continued, thanking Sharrieff for “blessing” her with “two amazing young men” — their sons Sharrieff Jr, 31, and Omar, 19.

“I love you so much & can’t wait to hold you again soon 💕,” she concluded.

In another photo shared Wednesday — timestamped July 6 — she smiled while posing with Sharrieff, adding the caption, “❤️8.27.1994❤️,” to commemorate over three decades of marriage.

Jen, 51 — known for her combative encounters with co-stars on the Bravo reality TV series — was sentenced to six and a half years in prison for money laundering and conspiracy to commit wire fraud back in 2022. She was also ordered to pay $6.5 million in restitution to thousands of people — including the elderly — whom she pleaded guilty to defrauding in a telemarketing scheme.

Her sentence was reduced in 2023 by one year and reduced a second time in 2024 by an additional eight months. In January, the sentence was reduced for a third time to Nov. 3, 2026.

In 2023, her rep told People that the reality star was “committed towards making her victims whole.”

“She has initiated her payments towards restitution, and we hope to have her home as soon as possible so that she may resume life with her family and work, putting this chapter of her life behind her,” the rep shared.

Page Six learned in 2023 that the TV personality had completed an anger management course, as well. “Through journaling, homework, audio lessons and the two hour weekly group sessions/class, I learned more about what anger is, where it comes from, and healthy ways to respond and react that are safe and beneficial,”Jen told us via a rep.

The TV personality seems to have made friends with disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes during her time locked up.

Through it all, she’s been sure to send messages of love and support to Sharrieff. On Valentine’s Day, Jen took to Instagram to share a sweet PDA pic of the couple holding hands.

“Even from miles away, my love and gratitude for you are stronger than ever,” she captioned the post. “Thank you for sticking by my side and never letting go of my hand.”
