Jen Shah rattled The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City when she was charged with being part of a telemarketing fraud scheme. Fans had been wondering if Shah would still film with the rest of the cast following her legal woes and they finally got their answer. Heather Gay went live on Instagram along with Whitney Rose and Shah made a surprising appearance.
Is Jen Shah still friends with Heather Gay and Whitney Rose?
Shah didn’t leave things well with Gay and Rose following the premiere season of RHOSLC. Although they all talked about their differences, when the reunion came around, there was still animosity between them. Following the reports that Shah was charged with fraud and is awaiting trial, fans expected the cast to drift.
That is why when Gay went Live on Instagram, they were pleasantly surprised to see Shah in a car alongside Rose. The ladies were seemingly filming a scene for the second season of the Bravo series as the car looked equipped with cameras on the window.
The broadcast was short, unfortunately, as there were issues with the connection. Video of the broadcast was paused and cut as the ladies cheered to the Bring It On classic, “Brr, it’s cold in here, there must be snowflakes in the atmosphere.”

Shah’s reappearance with her RHOSLC co-stars was a huge surprise as days ago she was calling out “friends.” The Bravo star had posted a series of messages on her Instagram account talking about the meaning of true friendship.
“True friends will be by your side through it all,” read the graphic she shared.
In addition, she added more text at the bottom of the graphic saying, ““Thank you to those of you who that have shown my family and I real friendship, unconditional love & true loyalty during this difficult time. Thank you for not judging me and not believing everything you read online. I asked Allah to show me who my real friends are and he has. Allah Akbar.”

“Thank you for being loyal, believing in me, and not believing the hype,” Shah wrote in reply to her fan. “This journey has showed [sic] me who my true friends are. All my love.”
Jen Shah could face a long time in jail if found guilty
