Bravo Uninvites Jen Shah From The RHOSLC Season 3 Reunion
Jen Shah reveals that she has been uninvited from The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's season 3 reunion taping ahead of her sentencing date.
Jen Shah reveals that she will not attend The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season 3 reunion. The news comes after rumors have been swirling about the star's future on the Bravo show. During RHOSLC season 2, Jen was arrested on charges relating to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering. Fans of the show were able to see Jen's legal issues briefly before the season wrapped. Throughout the season 2 reunion taping, Jen maintained her innocence and assured her castmates and viewers that she would fight for herself and those in a similar position. In a shocking turn of events, Jen changed her plea to guilty in July 2022—leaving the Bravo fandom speechless.
Since then, Jen's involvement with Bravo quickly came to a halt. The RHOSLC star was not at BravoCon 2022 and has not appeared on any recent Watch What Happens Live episodes to promote the show. Fans hoped that Jen would have the opportunity to share more about her guilty plea and legal proceedings at the upcoming reunion, but Jen said on Instagram that "Bravo executives" made her aware she "was not invited to attend the season 3 Reunion." Jen revealed she was "disappointed" with the network's decision because the reunion would be the only "venue to confront inaccuracies and address my storyline with cast members." RHOSLC season 3 has revolved heavily around Jen's drama with co-star Angie Harrington and her husband, Chris Harrington, who admitted to creating a fake Instagram account called "shahxposed."

Jen added that she was "clear with Bravo that out of respect for the courts and a standing judicial order," the reality star "would not" be able to "discuss anything related to my legal case or sentencing." Fans of The Real Housewives franchise have watched Jen's case closely since she was first arrested in 2021. Because of that, Bravo wants to showcase as much as possible. However, Jen stated the network "found this unsatisfactory" and still "expected" her to discuss this season's "storyline." Jen informed RHOSLC viewers that Bravo's "expectation has no regard for me or my family's well-being," and under "legal advice, I will not be attending the reunion."
Since Jen's arrest, and likely following the advice of her lawyers, her engagement with Bravo has been limited only to shooting the series. During RHOSLC season 2, fans did get to see Jen meeting with lawyers and discussing her ongoing case with her family. However, watchers were still hoping for a more in-depth look at the reality star's legal troubles. Because the cast was shooting season 3 when Jen changed her plea to guilty, some were confident the latest episodes of RHOSLC would show what led Jen to make that decision. Since that hasn't happened just yet, the RHOSLC season 3 reunion would've made the perfect stage for Jen to share her side.
Now that Jen has confirmed she won't be attending The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's season 3 reunion, the rumors can be put to rest. For fans interested in still following Jen's legal case, her sentencing date is set for January 6th, 2023, at 2:30 p.m. EST. As far as Jen's future on the show is concerned, no one knows whether Salt Lake City's self-proclaimed "Queen Bee" will be featured in season 4. Should she not be sentenced to serve prison time, Andy Cohen has already stated that he'd love for her to return. If Jen is sentenced to serve time in prison, the show will likely move on without her. Either way, fans are waiting eagerly to see what happens next.
