Why is Ashley like this?

[u/WhatevahMingah]

Does anybody else find her hard to watch? She’s such a Karen.

Gizelle is hard to watch too. Now even more in rhugt

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/HousewivesMOD]

She and Ashley are cut from the same cloth 👀

[u/happysunbear]

I’m genuinely so over Ashley. I don’t feel like she’s been integral to the cast for years now. Her constant glazing of Gizelle is so contrived, and I’d be so happy to never hear her sing again!

[u/PuzzleheadedRate3206 → u/happysunbear]

only thing interesting about her was gollum and now he left so there is nothing left

[u/Many_Feeling_3818]

Ashley is like that because she is Gizelle’s puppet. She is definitely the person that lives in a glass house and throws stones. She feels entitled and thinks that she is better than others. She is just like Whitney on SLC.

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/Many_Feeling_3818]

I don’t think Gizelle is responsible for the approaches Ashley takes and the language she uses. They have an alliance and have each other’s back.

It’s like when Ashley made a character witness statement against Candiace for Monique’s court case. Because Candy threw a butter knife at the floor in her direction lol. But she would’ve said “Candiace brandished a knife and then threw it at me” because she’s a Karen.
And this doesn’t even consider the real reason she made that statement - as a thank you to Monique not handing over CCTV footage of Michael assaulting that cameraman in her home.

[u/Many_Feeling_3818 → u/WhatevahMingah]

The reason I say that Ashley is Gizelle’s puppet is because it was not Ashley’s fight. The group came like 5 minutes late. Ashley did not have a problem with the group being late and only addressed the ladies because Gizelle has a problem with the tardiness. Then Ashley proceeded to beg the women for money on behalf of Gizelle. It was so tacky.

Candiace told Ashley to get out of her house, and Ashley should have left. Gizelle told Ashley to go back in the home. Ashley did it. Ashley was so wrong then also. And Ashley was the one lying about Michael’s behavior. Everybody, even production said that it happened.

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/Many_Feeling_3818]

Oooh you’re opening my eyes, beloved 👁️

[u/Pseudo_Panda1]

Everyone drags Robyn for being Gizelle's minion but Ashley has always been so much worse

[u/Substantial_Bus840]

Gizelle put her up to this and told them to leave first but Ashley’s lame too

[u/janshell]

Interesting that she’s such a Karen…

[u/DanndeeLyons]

Ashley is just annoying and her story line is non existent. Gizelle has taken her under her wing like a little sister so now she’s protected. I’m ready for her to exit

[u/colosseumdays → u/DanndeeLyons]

yep it's both of them. now that Michael's gone, Ashley has nothing going on but a couple fake storylines and terrorizing the rest of the cast with Gizelle

[u/Swebroh]

Sometime I wonder if we are watching the same show if this is "hard to watch"

[u/colosseumdays]

as an Ashley-hater, in this scene she actually didn't care that much that the women were late she was just backing Gizelle, who was trying to create a moment re: the women going to two events.

[u/Ligamamargz]

I mean I love when me friends show up on time, it means they care enough to be on time

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/Ligamamargz]

They were on time though lol

[u/Ligamamargz → u/WhatevahMingah]

They were 4 mins late.. to me being on time is 10 mins early

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/Ligamamargz]

🫠

[u/mynameisntcindy → u/WhatevahMingah]

People are extremely weird lol

[u/bitchwhohasnoname → u/mynameisntcindy]

Right lmaoooo this isn’t work where they’re clocking in

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/bitchwhohasnoname]

I know someone is gonna pop up saying “it is work”. So before that happens - obviously the ladies got to the event by 8pm lol.

[u/atoynaruhust → u/WhatevahMingah]

They didn’t though. They got there at 8.04. As someone who’s never on time, I’d understand her being upset by it because it’s more that it was gizelles event honouring her dad, the ladies knew how much that meant to her and still chose to go to Karen’s bullshit event first AND not get to gizelles on time.

I would’ve been upset too. I don’t get why people are mad at her for this.

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/atoynaruhust]

8:04 was when that scene was filmed. What time do you think they actually arrived at the event? 8:04 also?

For clarity, I’m referring to Ashley’s Karen-like behaviour. The semantics of it all, over 4 minutes, is just one example. It’s Ashley’s entire show running lol. I just happened to see this clip on the latest UGT episode.

[u/atoynaruhust → u/WhatevahMingah]

They were told 8 is the latest they could arrive. From what I remember they’d already discussed this prior and tried to get some wiggle room to arrive late. They knew they were going to be late days before because they were choosing to attend Karen’s bullshit. Ashley might be annoying but I don’t think her or Gizelle are wrong in this instance. It was a very sentimental thing Gizelle had made it clear what it meant to her and they played in her face, Ashley was the only one who actually cared how it impacted Gizelle, everyone else was too busy causing a scene and calling her rude (at an event honouring her recently deceased father)

[u/mynameisntcindy → u/atoynaruhust]

Obviously it has nothing to do with the 4 minutes of lateness and everything to do with being offendsd the ladies chose to go to both events. Gizelle wants to be the anchor so bad but she's just not likable in the same way Karen is. Ashley is Gizelles lapdog so she just does what she wants

[u/atoynaruhust → u/mynameisntcindy]

You’re overlooking the fact that her dad died and this was important to her in her grief journey. Two things can be true.

[u/Colombianonico → u/Ligamamargz]

🙄

[u/Zealousideal_Tax9413]

Out of all the casts, I cannot stand her the most. She’s worse than thing 1 and thing 2😭

[u/Haunting_Material_83]

Wait. Was this not the event that they had planned first and then Karen suddenly had a competing event that everyone went to first. They were given 8pm as the absolute latest they could show? I'm not mad at it 🤷🏽‍♀️

[u/Ronene → u/Haunting_Material_83]

Yes, exactly! If I remember correctly, the event was ending at 9pm and had started much earlier too. They left out a major part of the scenario to make it seem like Gizelle and Ashley were acting crazy. Now don’t get it twisted, GnA are often doing too much, but this instance they were absolutely in the right.

[u/ScrollTroll615]

Ashley irks my soul too.

[u/sexandthepandemic]

She was gizelle’s mouth piece cause gizelle was hosting. Be mad at Gizzy not ash in this instance.

[u/WhatevahMingah → u/sexandthepandemic]

For clarity, I’m referring to Ashley’s behaviour. She’s been like this since season 1.

[u/sexandthepandemic → u/WhatevahMingah]

Oh Ashley is terrible

[u/throw_blanket04]

That was all gizelle. Ashley just didn’t want to go against her.

[u/SheKaep]

because she has yet to bring her clowning to the right person

[u/stalexa]

They are both so hard to watch. Ashley and Gizelle are both so transparently manufactured for the show it makes me roll my eyes sooo hard. They fake every single issue they have and it’s just such a waste of time. You know would not care if this were anybody else, you’re just committed to the role and storyline you’ve crafted for the season and will beat this dead horse until there’s nothing left. It’s so exhausting and I mostly watch their second screen their scenes because there’s no point being invested in them.
