Ghislaine Maxwell Has Shown 'No Remorse' for Epstein Victims While in Prison, According to Jen Shah

Jen Shah is opening up about spending time behind bars with Ghislaine Maxwell.

If you didn’t know, the 52-year-old former Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star and Ghislaine, 64, were both incarcerated at a federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas. Another high profile inmate at that same facility is former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes.

In a new interview with People published on Wednesday (April 1), Jen, who was released in December 2025, claimed that Maxwell showed “no remorse” for her late boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein’s victims.

Jen described Maxwell‘s experience in prison as “very different” than anything she or Holmes, 42, endured.

“[Maxwell] is treated very differently there,” Jen said. “I didn’t have a lot of interaction with her … She would come over and talk to us or I would see her … She made it very publicly known, at least to Elizabeth and I, that there’s no remorse there.”

“Again, I obviously don’t know all the details of the case or whatever, but we know enough,” she continued. “It was a lot when the [Epstein] victims would be on TV and talking, she [showed] just complete disregard for them. This was when they were pouring their hearts out in front of Congress for the [Epstein Files] to be released.”

Jen added, “To see that kind of behavior when there are real victims that you’re seeing and what they’ve gone through, and to be so dismissive of that, that just didn’t sit right with me.”

If you are unaware, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for her role in Epstein‘s sex trafficking web back in 2022. She has maintained her innocence and has publicly asked Donald Trump, who used to be friendly with Epstein, for a pardon.

Jen went on to say that both she and Holmes “definitely” chose to keep their distance from Maxwell once they noticed her alleged attitude towards the Epstein victims.

“I just feel like there should be a level of remorse for the victims,” Jen argued. “And she made it very publicly known — at least to Elizabeth and I — that there’s no remorse there. She outrightly said it.”

She also claimed that Maxwell received favorable treatment and privileges in prison that the other inmates had no access to.

“[Maxwell] was treated very well there. She was afforded things that nobody else was afforded, like private workout sessions, special meals, bottled water,” Jen alleged. “Everybody witnessed it, and I know that firsthand because I worked in [recreation] so I would have to clean things up. I was also asked for certain equipment because she was going to go work out late at night.”

Jen went on to explain, “There’s a process you have to go through to schedule your legal calls. She would not have to go through the same process.”

In response to Jen‘s allegations about Maxwell, a spokesperson for the Bureau of Prisons told People that its staff is “committed to maintaining the highest standards of integrity, impartiality, and professionalism in the operation of its facilities.”

“Staff are required to treat all inmates equitably, in accordance with law, policy, and institutional security and safety protocols. Any deviation from this standard undermines public trust and the fair administration of justice,” the spokesperson continued. “Violations of this policy are subject to a full range of disciplinary actions, up to and including removal from federal service and potential criminal prosecution.”
