The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City<\/i><\/a><\/span> alum Jen Shah<\/span><\/a><\/strong> is peeling back the curtain on her life under home confinement after being released from prison.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m on home confinement until August, or possibly a little bit before that,\u201d Shah, 52, revealed in an interview with People<\/i><\/span><\/a> published on Friday, April 3. \u201cYou still get to go out; you can request to go out for employment reasons, for work, religious needs \u2014 whatever you need to do based on your security level. But everything you do has to be approved.\u201d<\/p>\n

The former Bravo star revealed that she can even run errands to places like Target. At the same time, she must wear an ankle monitor that knows when she leaves her residence and comes back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can go to Target. It\u2019s called hygiene passes,\u201d she shared. \u201cYou get to go to the store and Target or different places like that to do your shopping and take care of things.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tJen Shah\u00a0dropped some surprising bombshells about her marriage, life behind bars and more in her first interview since being released from prison. \u201cI was wrong,\u201d Shah, 52, told People on Wednesday, April 1, about what led to her 33-month prison sentence. \u201cI made wrong decisions. I should have done things differently. I should have been [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Shah was sentenced in 2023<\/span><\/a> to prison for her role in a yearslong telemarketing scheme that the government said defrauded innocent people across the country. After serving less than three years at a federal prison camp in Texas, Shah was released in December 2025<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

When asked how she is making money after prison, Shah said she is working on many different projects and \u201clooking at different opportunities in the media and entertainment industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI still have a lot to say, so whether that\u2019s in a book, on a podcast \u2014 there\u2019s lots of options,\u201d she explained. \u201cAnd I really want to create a fictional musical about life in a woman\u2019s prison. I think it would be a great Broadway show.\u201d<\/p>\n

As she works to pay back more than $6.6 million in restitution, Shah is quick to say she was \u201cwrong\u201d and \u201cshould have done things differently.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moving forward, she hopes to spread some positivity and use her fame for good.<\/p>\n
