While in conversation with Jonah Hill on his SiriusXM radio show, Andy opened up about what will happen from here and whether or not he believes her.
“I don’t know how to feel about this, Jen Shah pleading guilty,” Andy told Jonah, who then countered back, “Right, well, when you say you’re guilty of something, it maybe means you’re guilty.”
Andy then corrected him, stating that “all it means is she’s changing her plea.”
He says that he feels conflicted about Jen‘s guilty plea because he’s grown close to her, and she even sent him a gift for the birth of his second child, Lucy.
“I was like, ‘Jen Shah, with everything you have going on, that you thought to send to send Lucy a gift…,’” he said. “I just thought that was so nice of her.”
“I’ll say that about Jen Shah — at least she’s honest,” Jonah added.
In April 2021, Jen and her assistant Stuart Smith were arrested for for conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering in a telemarketing scam. She maintained her innocence after the arrest and pleaded not guilty to the charges, while Stuart plead guilty in November 2021.
