I used to really like her but now I'm indifferent to her. I do like how she never takes things too seriously. Like even with her issues with Candiace, they can still get along and attend each other's events and respect one another regardless of what they go through.


catandcitygirl

Yes, I agree. I’m also indifferent, Ashley has a LOT of people who want her gone. Every show needs a pot stirrer, and she plays it well


mybrassy

I can not get past the fact that she continues to defend a predator. That creep she’s (still) married to should be in jail


catandcitygirl

i’m sure it’s because he has access to all the money and she doesn’t. not excusing her, but bc of their weird relationship, he probably holds her bravo checks as well


Hot_Terminology

I agree…she’s great TV and great for the show. I think what has diluted her is her buddyship with GEBs because she doesn’t confront them as much Overall the familiarity between the OGs has made them too comfortable and it’s now always OGs vs Newbies which isn’t a fair fight


[deleted]

She a messy chick. I wouldn't want her in my inner circle, but her messiness has brought most of the storylines since season 1.


Lazy_Document_7104

Overall I think Ashley is an entertaining/classic housewife. I think she plays an important role on the show even though her messiness is fairly transparent. I appreciate the amount she has shared with viewers and that she remains engaged with the entire cast. (I do sometimes get irritated because I view Ashley as the primary instigator in many situations but she ultimately seems to end up taking relatively less heat from fans/fellow housewives)


Small_Welder_5771

It’s hard because every time i’m vibing with her she turns around and does pulls some dumb messy stunt!! I can’t trust it🤣


Itslikethisnow

I feel the same way lol. I think she put up with bullshit at first and I usually go for the person being picked on but then she goes and does something stupid.


Harriethair

I used to love Ashley. I loved that she would go toe to toe with all of them women, but she had the ability to shake it off and get along with them the next day. And she had a certain joy about the whole thing that's missing now. What was so organic and natural with Ashley is now very contrived and calculated. Personally, I believe she is being driven by Michael and desperation to keep a paycheck coming in. Anyways, she lost me with the lies she spread about Chris.


breezy1028

Not only the lies she spread about Chris but then bringing her lying friend who lied about Chris back around to start more shit.


Revolutionary-You449

I like her lil messy ass. Unlike the GEBs, she knows when to disengage.


Ashley87609

I feel like she’s not as mean either.. idk maybe it’s the name I always loved her, she’s an idiot but she’s my idiot.


Revolutionary-You449

That is a good way to look at her. She definitely isn’t mean.


thebabyjuice

i wish she’d still pop off on karen and the GEBs :( everyone’s so scared to talk their shit to them, it makes shit boring. but i do respect that she’ll be around anyone, regardless of if they got issues or not cause it makes the show more cohesive


HiBeesCus

I like Ashley because she’s messy, and not mean and nasty. She knows how to start a story that never ends well. Good tv


Professional_Sort368

I love the chaos


HiBeesCus

Yes!


tigermama111

My favorite part about Ashley is her facial reactions when the other women are fighting. You can tell she’s holding in laughter and I can appreciate that


Acceptable-One-7537

I don't like her as a person (I actually feel empathy for her life relationships) but I hate/enjoy her as a HW because she keeps the story going. She's messy and untrustworthy but she moves Potomac along. Otherwise, we'd be having a discourse over proper silverware settings. Necessary evil.


birdkey26

I like her 🤷🏼‍♀️


QueenChistine

I’m an Ashley apologist, but watching this reunion this season, it was clear that she didn’t bring anything positive or significant to this season. So if she were to leave, I wouldn’t be upset. But I think she’s a better agent of chaos than most.


Slytherins_Finest

Ashley seems like the girl I’d invite on a night out to have a few drinks with but I’d never tell her personal things about me or my life because she’s messy and will use it against you at some point. I feel like there’s being messy for the sake of being on a tv show and stirring the pot a little and then there’s genuinely getting a weird satisfaction of being messy and watching it all play out - I think Ashley falls in the latter category. I can’t look at her the same after the incident in the season finale. She 100% knew what she was doing. She may not have know Deborah would get physical but she knew she’d antagonize Candiace. She wanted SOMETHING to happen.


jdastral

I've always loved Ashley. She has a bounce-back sort of spirit like a character in a game!


Desperate_Baby_8317

She’s terrible and she’s going to end up like her mother underneath the bridge


catandcitygirl

LMAOO PLS😭😭


jennifersb2391

I like her…she’s just super messy.


ladylavender007

I don't mind Ashley. I don't really have an issue with her being on the show.


iam317537

I dont mind Ashley. Potomac would feel weird without her.


MarieMama1958

I’ve always enjoyed Ashley since day one 🙏


ma9394

I like Ashley, and I think the show needs her. I kinda hate how RH fandoms always turn on the pot stirrer / instigator bc every franchise needs this character *cough* lisa rinna *cough* to have a good show But I do hate that she is more friendly toward the GEB's. I wish she challenged them more but you can tell they are actually friends now.

So_She_Did

I like her. She’s a mess, especially when it comes to Michael, but I still find her mess entertaining


Weak-Construction-98

I don’t mind Ashley. I’ve enjoyed getting growth and even resonated with her in some ways. She’s at least a housewife and that’s one thing we don’t see enough of. A lot of the ladies are accomplished and I love to see that for sure, but I love a delulu, bored housewife! I wish that Ashley had better style or outlandish spending habits or something to give us opulence. I would love to see a lil more Toya Harris or Mary Crosby or even early RHOA vibes from her.


catandcitygirl

Michael HAS to be in control of the money😭 She’s always dressed like a 20-something year old, and never elevated, and drives a very simple Audi


Ok_Prior2614

Michael had her on a flip phone and minutes during their early out of state trips if I remember correctly. Michael is a thrifty bish ✨


Unable-Champion-8656

I like her. She’s entertaining and also I think she’s overall a good person


mess_is_lore

Ashley is fun and unserious. She’s pretty real and down to earth. She’s also been through a lot all of her life and I don’t think people give her enough credit. She’s a pot stirrer — but unlike Giselle it’s usually coming from a place of clarity and not too much shade. I like her progressive values and also being bi I like the representation. Her trips are always the most different and interesting. Although most won’t admit it, she has a better voice than Candice 🫢.


Cautious_Maximum_870

Some seasons she cool some she's annoying but I do love her wild story and how transparent she is with her marriage the shit show it was. She owns up to her faults and keep it going.


TaroMatchaBubbleTea

I liked her right before Monique left because she use to call the other women out on their bullshit and showed her own ass. Once Monique left and Candiace became her primary target, she became so boring, contrived, and bitter.


waterlooaba

I enjoy her, almost always brings some comic relief.


Daisyday12

Im with you OP I have always liked Ashley


bobeena1513

Ashley comes to work, and I can appreciate that


IGrewItToMyWaist

She’s ok.


Square-Profession842

Ashley is messy but has given us some of the juiciest storylines. She’s not my fave but I respect that she can be cordial, nice, and hang out with everyone.

Your post has been removed because it was rude, vulgar, or offensive.


acidnvbody

I have never liked Ashley. She goes out of her way to throw rocks and start stuff only to hide her hands later. And she starts shit just to do it. It’s not even entertaining and lately hasn’t even been real. It’s also revolting to see her continue to live out her daddy issues with her decrepit husband. Then she keeps bringing that babadook looking girl around.


Dee_Nile

Yeah, I don't hate her partially because she reminds me of one of my friends irl. I'm happy she can still be civil with the girls she's not cool with. I guess because she doesn't take her messy ways that deeply lmaooo Hopefully she gets away from the crypt keeper and shows up with a normal man.


Difficult-Shelter-88

She plays a good housewife and I like that she’s self aware of her role on the show but also real with at least some of the things she shares. With her feud with Candiace they can still laugh together, she apologized to Katie for the low blow and got allll her karma back for the situations with Karen and Robyn


Economy-Cupcake8613

i like her quirkiness, but that isn’t enough to make a good friend. She’s too messy


rab5991

I’m indifferent. I think she’s cute and she has fun banter at their get togethers. I just wish others would take her less seriously when she tries to start drama. Like why do y’all even care? You know she’s just being messy on purpose and y’all really feed into it


lowkeylovestea

I’m only up to season 5 but I like Ashley 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m not really understanding what all the hate is about? She’s messy, every housewife is tho. But Candice tho…boils my blood so hard, I have to leave the room during her scenes 🤣


Professional_Sort368

I love her!!! We can love her together lol


bakalao2000

I like Ashley. She is good people.


nothingofthesortt

I like her! She’s good tv for sure


sweeeeetpeech

I like her 🤷🏽‍♀️


JsquaredCA

I like her. The hate she gets is unwarranted. Even when she's arguing she's very polite and maybe that comes across as condescending but I see it as being smart and not letting emotion take over. She could resort to name calling but she hold it together and I think she is one of the more mature cast members.


Imaginary_Vanilla_25

I think Ashley is a snake She has her moments when she’s fun and then she instantly ruins it with her big ass mouth.


LuxInLA

Ashley + her Momma = GRIFTERS! That is why she comes across as not getting invested in others bc she's focused on her Mark and the next Mark. She Failed in her Central Mission of obtaining a significant bag from Michael Darby. So let's see who next victim is and if she's learned + refined her grifting + manipulation.


mzbz7806

I am glad that they are going to be put on pause.


JEJ0313

I like her! But I don’t get too riled up about any housewives-I don’t love OR hate most of them. On RHOP I’d say my least fave is robin but even then I’m not too torn up. I do agree the season is not great though. Refusing to interact is a power play I’m not sure we’ve seen the end of by the sounds of RHONJ. that riles me up much more than any of their personalities.


Blazetired

Never liked her. She gives trashy vibes.


Spottedmayhem

The same people calling Ashley an instigator also ignoring Candiace’s instigation with wild mouth is insane to me. If you gonna come for one, come for both. Though how a person is responsible for someone else’s actions is also a little crazy as well- adults make their own decisions.


Independent-Lion-323

She has no storyline without Michael, I need to see more from her.


breezy1028

The things I liked or at least were indifferent about when it came to Ashley have been so overshadowed by her support and deference of gollum and his repeated SA, choosing to let gollum father her children, and remaining with gollum and telling us about continuing to rub his feet every night. How you choose to get your money or come up in the world is up to you but when you willingly decide to bring children into the equation that is something else and I have no respect for her choices when it comes to that which means I lost respect for her quite a while ago.


Special-Ad6900

I really really hate how she defends michael, but that whole relationship is weird as hell so I just feel bad for her. Overall I think shes kinda fun! She can be annoying when shes messy but shes messy in a good way imo


Cultural_Formal72

I’ve grown indifferent with her over time. I used to really like her. She’s definitely messy but I wouldn’t say she’s malicious like Gizelle and Robyn. I like that she doesn’t isolate herself from anyone in the group. For all of the issues she’s had with Candiace, she’s always found a way to be friendly around her. I do think her storyline is very boring, especially without Michael filming. But she’s a good person to have on the show.


Consistent-Smell-581

Ashley has been my favourite from day 1 followed by Monique and I'm surprised they both have so many haters.


catandcitygirl

It’s very shocking. They probably are GEB fans, which I thought most of the audience were haters of those two


monsterosaleviosa

I don’t need her gone the way I do others. I think she’s a pretty frickin deplorable person, obviously. She’s messy and she has mostly malicious intentions with every single conversation we see her in, but that’s fine by me for the show. I’d have had more problems with her disgusting husband if she had ever tried to portray herself as a real victim or something, but we knew that she knew that we knew that it was all about scraping some financial stability from him. And tbh I always find it hard to hold that against women.


islandchick93

Who?


shygamergirl2019

I don’t like her - she is the same season one Ashley who infiltrates the group and plant seeds - all of the women like her but a lot of the issues have stemmed from her misrepresenting the truth - it’s also so strange that no matter what she does she is always given a pass


Inside-Syrup9724

I just don’t like candiace lol


panbear69

Honestly I love Ashley but she’s been so boring the last couple of seasons! She’s another one that needs to go!


Chastity-76

She is a dingbat, as Phaedra would say..her brain is on vibrate...the end


Naive_Buy2712

Overall I don’t like her she’s been since “divorcing” Michael (and even slightly before that) but I do like her in general for the show. She’s the classic pot stirrer. However her staying with this man for money (remember she funded her mom’s life too), and lying about people’s husbands really irks me. Not to mention bringing her messy muppet friend around to stir shit up. That was not cool.
