“She’s had Meredith [Marks] and Heather [Gay] by her side, who have been very supportive of their friend during a difficult time,” a source told the outlet. “Obviously her legal troubles have not been easy for Jen, let alone making this decision to plead not guilty.”
The insider went on to say that the case is “a very big part of Jen‘s story,” adding: “Producers don’t want us to stop following it now. They’ll keep filming with her as long as they can, just like they did with Teresa [Giudice].”
In April 2021, Jen and her assistant Stuart Smith were arrested for for conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering in an alleged telemarketing scam. She maintained her innocence after the arrest and pleaded not guilty to the charges, while Stuart pled guilty in November 2021.
“Ms. Shah is a good woman who crossed a line. She accepts full responsibility for her actions and deeply apologizes to all who have been harmed,” attorney Priya Chaudhry said in a statement.
“Ms. Shah is also sorry for disappointing her husband, children, family, friends, and supporters,” she continued. “Jen pled guilty because she wants to pay her debt to society and put this ordeal behind her and her family.”
