A VPS with a reverse proxy connected to your tailnet and a dyndns domain. It would be cheaper than Plex premium, you can use the vps for other stuff, and you have 100% certainty it will never ever show ads.

Step one: get your in-laws a cheap Apple TV from whatever site you use for used electronics. Or even a new one.

If you want to try it I think you should be able to do it Raspberry pi or equivalent on their network running Tailscale, use iptables to forward all inbound traffic on the Jellyfin port from that device to your Jellyfin server which is also running tailscale. Connect their Roku using the pi as the address for Jellyfin. I’ve not tried this with Jellyfin but I had something similar working with a Minecraft server

Roku is also a thing in Europe.
Though I also gave up trying to set up Tailscale for people and just exposed Jellyfin (behind a reverse proxy).
