The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Angie Katsanevas put on a united front with estranged husband Shawn Trujillo for Halloween.
“My Crüe🎸🎵🎤👻🖤 Happy Halloween🎃💀🖤 #MötleyCrüe,” Angie, 52, captioned an Instagram post on Saturday, October 31, posing in matching costumes with Shawn, 53, and their 15-year-old daughter, Elektra.
The trio dressed up as members of the heavy metal band, including Tommy Lee. The spooky celebration came nearly four months after news broke of Angie and Shawn’s separation in July.
“I think for a long time I was quiet about things that I was going through, so I could show up for other people,” Angie exclusively told Us while promoting season 7 of RHOSLC in September. “And I’ve gotten to the point where I’m being more open about what’s going on, and sometimes that can make it — it can be harder because I’m trying to show up for my daughter right now.”
Angie said she was in “self-preservation mode,” adding, “I want to be a great friend to everyone. But my No. 1 priority is my daughter making sure that she knows I’m there.”
At the time, the Bravo personality spoke about how her daughter was her biggest priority.
“We spent every day together from, you know, waking up at 4:30 to go to lessons for her horse — she’s an equestrian, as you know — and then we go to Pilates and we go swimming, we do activities,” she recalled. “So I filled my entire summer when we wrapped [RHOSLC] with spending every waking minute with my daughter.”
Angie referred to motherhood as the “most important role” in her life.
“You don’t have as much time to sit on the phone or spend time with friends. But this is very important to me right now with what’s going on in my life,” she continued. “Is just showing up for her, letting her know that I’m here and to feel safe and that my mom’s by my side.”
Angie also noted that she considered herself a “very close family” with her daughter and estranged husband, to whom she was married for nearly 30 years.
“We had our trips, we had our routines, our back-to-school sushi lunches,” she said. “And I think the most important thing for me was, yes, I am in self-preservation mode, but she is my No. 1 priority.”
