RHOSLC star Heather Gay has finally admitted that she believes her bestie Jen Shah is guilty of the crimes for which she has been convicted. For months, Heather has defended Jen against the allegations.
But after Jen pleaded guilty to wire fraud, Heather finally accepted the truth to Lisa Barlow.
“I am overwhelmed with grief,” Heather told Lisa . “Grief that we are in this situation, that there are victims, our friend is going away for a decade and she has a 16-year-old.”
“That made me bawl my eyes out yesterday,” Lisa added. “All I could think about was her in the van, saying, ‘I’m not going to see Reefie [Jen’s son, Sharrieff Jr.] get married.'”
Jen’s telemarketing scheme reportedly targeted the elderly and funded her lavish lifestyle.
“What she pled guilty to is so bad,” Heather continued. “And the fact that she’s taken it this far and gone on for this long and proclaimed her innocence, and now, I can only think she did it and she thought she was going to get away with it, and when she realized she wasn’t going to get away with it, her story changed. It was the last thing I expected, was for her to plead guilty.”
Part one of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City reunion airs next Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
