The ladies of Salt Lake City are giving all the Real Housewives franchises a run for their money, that's for sure! With the drama surrounding Jen Shah's arrest taking precedence this season, it's clear that the women are delivering each and every episode, and fans are loving every minute of it.
Jen Shah finally made her re-appearance on this week's episode following her arrest prior to the girls' trip to Vail, Colorado. While she was the talk of each episode since, Jen finally spoke out regarding the allegations, claiming that she is totally innocent. This came about during a lunch with fellow co-star, Heather Gay, who seems to be the only friend Shah has at the moment.
Jen Shah Reaches Out To Heather Gay
Following Jen Shah's shocking arrest back at the Beauty Lab + Laser parking lot prior to the group trip to Vail, the RHOSLC star re-emerged on-screen to discuss the details regarding her case. While she attempted to reach out to Lisa Barlow, it was actually Heather Gay who was the only one willing to meet with Jen in person.
Shah asked if Heather would be up to grabbing lunch, and Heather didn't hesitate for a single moment before agreeing to do so. During their time together, Jen made it clear that she was not guilty of fraud and money laundering, claiming she didn't even think she'd need a lawyer following her arrest as she'd "done nothing wrong."
Jen Claims She Thought She Was Being Kidnapped
During Jen and Heather's chat, Jen Shah revealed that after receiving the phone call prior to the Vail trip, she was pulled over on her way home by a white minivan. Shah claims that thought she was being kidnapped at first, considering an arrest was the last thing on her mind.
After authorities identified themselves, Jen was taken to a federal building where she was questioned by the judge, only to be released shortly after. With so much going through her mind, Jen was oblivious to the charges against her, hence her thinking that she was being kidnapped rather than arrested!
Jen Shah Claims She Is Innocent
Not only did she reiterate her innocence to Heather during their lunch, but Jen Shah also made it clear she was innocent during her dinner scene with hubby, Sharrieff Sr. "I am at the lowest point in my life, but as I've told you since day one, I am innocent!" Jen said.
"I did not do any of those things! We got married for better or for worse, and this is for worse right now!" she told Sharrief. "I didn't do anything!" she proclaimed. Sharrieff Sr. made it clear that he believes Jen and will be staying by her side throughout this whole ordeal, despite the couple nearly divorcing only months prior.
