Did Jen Shah Skype Into the ‘RHOSLC’ Reunion From Prison? Here’s What Andy Cohen Said About the Rumor

Andy Cohen is setting the record straight about former Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah and whether or not she made an appearance at the Season 4 reunion from prison.

The Bravo patriarch addressed the rumors Wednesday during his SiriusXM radio show, Andy Cohen Live

"I didn't hear this until yesterday on a call with a bunch of Bravo EPs, I didn't realize there was a rumor going around on reunion day," said Cohen. "That Jen Shah Skyped in from prison or something... Did not happen. Did not happen, so if anyone was hoping for that – didn't happen."

The Daddy Diaries author also responded to rumors about RHOSLC's Mary Cosby – who famously did not show up to the Season 2 reunion – making an appearance at Season 4's get-together.

"She did show up. She was not out on the stage for the entire reunion, but she was out there for the exact right amount, and it was a really interesting discussion with her," Cohen shared. 

After Shah pleaded guilty in July last year to federal charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering, she was sentenced in January to 78 months in prison. Her sentence, which began Feb. 17, has since been reduced by one year, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons' inmate database. 

In July, the former Bravo personality gave The Messenger an inside glimpse at her life behind bars.

"Daily introspection and self-examination are helping me learn many valuable lessons about how I ended up here," Shah said via email. "I took shortcuts and broke the law. I own and understand my actions created victims. I hurt people and I must reiterate that I blame no one but myself."

According to Shah's prison consultant Justin Paperny, she is "not just working, sleeping or exercising her time away." Instead, she's taking steps to mentor other prisoners and tutor GED and ESL students.

"Jen has adopted a positive attitude in a difficult situation," Paperny explained. "Her focus on personal growth, building strong relationships and helping others is a testament to her resilience and strength of character."
