Elizabeth Holmes spends final weekend at beach with partner and two kids ahead ... trends now
Convicted fraudster Elizabeth Holmes spent her final days of freedom soaking up the sun with her family – this time without any hope or possibility of a repeat of the last-minute reprieve that allowed her to dodge prison for a month.
Despite her best efforts to avoid serving time behind bars, Holmes, 39, is now set to begin her 11-year sentence on Tuesday at a federal facility out of state – miles away from the $9million San Diego mansion she shares with partner Billy Evans and their two children.
With U.S. District Judge Edward Davila setting her revised prison-reporting date to May 30 earlier this month, the disgraced Theranos founder was able to enjoy Memorial Day Weekend one last time with her family.
Exclusive DailyMail.com photos show Holmes savoring her last days as a free woman with wholesome trip to the beach near their oceanfront home and being supported by her mother and father who have been staying with her ahead of her sentence.

Holmes, who shares son William, 2, and newborn daughter Invicta with partner Billy Evans, was seen heading back to their San Diego mansion after soaking up the sun at the beach on Saturday
On Saturday her parents were seen taking care of household errands by stocking up on groceries at a local Whole Foods Market, while Holmes and Evans spent quality family time at Tide Park, a secluded beach two miles north of their home.
After stationing their car on the cliffside street parking, Evans, 30, and Holmes walked down the long grueling steps leading to shore with their kids in tow.
They positioned themselves against the backdrop of the cliff away from the other beach goers for privacy.
The couple spent about an hour at the beach, where her son William was seen gleefully running around the sand and splashing in the water.
At one point, Holmes took three-month-old Invicta for a quick dip into the ocean.
Dressed in a black hooded beach cover, she waded around the shallow end and dangled her daughter's feet into the water, while doting dad Evans took several pictures of their final hours together.
The couple have been doing everything they can to ensure that life goes on as normally as possible right up to the time Holmes must swap her designer duds for a prison jumpsuit
If she ends up serving her full sentence, the holiday weekend could be the last time Holmes sees her children as a free woman for 11 years
After about an hour at the beach, they packed up and drown back to their oceanfront mansion
It seemed to be a bittersweet moment for the couple whose young children will have to spend much of their childhood without their mother.
After about an hour at the beach, they packed up and drove back to their oceanfront home.
Holmes had originally been ordered to begin her prison sentence on April 27, but managed to buy an extra four weeks with her family after scoring a reprieve with a last-minute legal maneuver.
The mother-of-two temporarily avoided reporting to prison after the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed to stay her date while she attempts to appeal her conviction.
