Jen Shah might be serving time, but her love story isn’t taking a break.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City alum, currently in federal prison for wire fraud, marked her 31st wedding anniversary with a surprisingly intimate glimpse into her life behind bars. On August 27, Shah shared a rare photo with husband Coach Sharrieff Shah, captioning it simply: “??8.27.1994??.”
The image shows the couple posing together during a prison visit—Jen in her regulation uniform, smiling for the camera, and Sharrieff casually dressed, his arm wrapped around her.
While it’s not your typical anniversary celebration, Shah made it clear that love is still front and center in her life. In a separate post, she shared an emotional message reflecting on their relationship:
“Happy 31st Anniversary today to me and my baby! 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.”
She continued, “Thank you for blessing me with two amazing young men. I love you so much & can’t wait to hold you again soon. ? #Bismillah”
It’s one of the few public updates fans have seen since Shah began her sentence in February 2023 at Bryan Federal Prison Camp in Texas. In July 2022, she pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud after initially denying the charges. Her sentence: six and a half years behind bars, followed by five years of supervised release.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons currently lists her release date as August 2026.
Though life has changed dramatically since her time on Bravo, one thing hasn’t: her devotion to Sharrieff. Even from inside prison walls, Jen Shah is still putting her marriage on display, this time, without the designer wardrobe but with just as much drama and heart.
