or spend two extra years in prison
A life sentence, plus two years. How does that work?

Whole life sentences are very rare. Usually, there is a minimum term before they become eligible for parole. Once granted parole, they can be recalled to prison immediately should any further (even minor) offences be committed.
It’s ‘life’ in the sense that the conviction is never spent. But the minimum term in prison starts at around 8 years.
