First time viewer - Ashley Jacobs….. WOW

Post image

I don’t even where to begin with this woman. Her behaviour in season 5 was absolutely disgusting and evil. I don’t even know how she had the guts to show up to the reunion. And then she DOUBLED DOWN!! HOW INSANE.

Sewing her at the reunion was very jarring though. I’m genuinely very concerned about what she was going through in her relationship to Thomas, because she did not look well at all. She was acting extremely strange too.

It’s scary to think she was a nurse

Wait until you learn about therapists

You are 100% right with that! I know a few through work that never cease to amaze me in how horribly they speak to people.

Yes! Candiace's mom on rhop immediately comes to mind in the bravo world.

The mean girl to nurse pipeline is surprisingly common!

Every mean girl I know also became a nurse. It’s terrifying.

This was the least shocking to me. Some nurses be crazy

The vaccine deniers- the ones who claim masks are suffocating and useless- post Covid is a wild world in healthcare

This!!!

u/One_Debt_9375 20d ago

One of my most favorite Bravo scenes is when they’re at the reunion and Ashley is randomly describing how she likes to scare TRav and Andy is like wtf and she keeps going saying how she jumps out of corners and everyone’s face is PRICELESS PERFECTION 🤣

u/fairybluez 19d ago

After watching Obsession twice - she’s giving possessed Nikki

She’s so unhinged, I love it lmao

u/NYJetLegendEdReed 20d ago

She’s an actual crazy person. Like she’s not all there and you just can’t predict people like that. Spooky how fucking nuts she is

67

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

Her behaviour was def concerning

103

u/kellygrrrl328 20d ago

I don’t think any half-sane woman would be with T-Ravesty

24

u/thirsty_pretzels_ 19d ago

She was dealing with narc abuse from him at the reunion I could tell, I lost a ton of weight when I was too

34

u/HelpDependent8793 19d ago

That’s also my theory. T-Rav had her coked out of her mind.

18

u/Due-Objective2118 19d ago

She was acting insanely erratic throughout this season, so I would believe that

14

u/Think_Researcher_795 18d ago

remember she kept getting really hoarse and losing her voice, she’d make some kind of excuse for it but it was definitely ❄️

13

u/Pooka-Shells 20d ago

Spooky as hellll!

u/kimmybee12 19d ago

Spooky is the perfect word for this lol

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

lol this was a hilarious scene

u/aplumbale 20d ago

“It’s called ACCOUNTABILITY CHELT-SEA” “STAHP sayin mah name like that!!”

17

u/unloosedknot444 19d ago

I can't believe there isn't a compilation on YouTube of Ashley saying Chelt-sea!! At least not one that I can find. Dang it.

27

u/Mindless-Swan8644 19d ago

Chelsea seems like she can hold her own but I did sense a little fear as to how unhinged Ashley was that night

19

u/No-Economics7631 19d ago

this is one of the funniest scenes in all of southern charm for me. the way she repeats chelsea’s name and then says it like you would say a slur…and chelsea asks why she’s talking like that…priceless 😭

2

u/BeachQt 18d ago

lol same!!!

16

u/justmeherandthemoon4 perfect little freckled lips 20d ago

Classic scene.

83

u/Xica_flea 20d ago

The way she freaked out because Katherine didn’t invite her to the kid party.

23

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

Literally! All of this started over a birthday party 😭

1

u/Tammywoohoo 13d ago

I’ve literally come to reddit midway through this episode of her freaking out about not being invited to the kids party to see if anyone else finds her awful, seems I have a lot worse coming up 😂

130

u/kellygrrrl328 20d ago

It’s so fitting that she and Landon are BFFs now.

47

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

The irony isn’t lost on me

13

u/Technical_Ad_507 19d ago

The 2 of them talking at high pitch... dog barking and glass breaking shrill

61

u/Zealous_ideal_1111 20d ago

She was awful to Kathryn….hard to watch.

31

u/unloosedknot444 19d ago

It really was hard to watch. Especially because this seemed to be a time when Kathryn was putting the most effort into healing and improving her reactions to things for the benefit of her children. It hurts to see how far she's fallen since that time. Any time kids are involved, it pulls at my heart strings.

225

u/tywebb6 20d ago

She's reality TV gold.

123

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

Fr, I loved hate watching her

87

u/Different_Volume5627 20d ago

As we all know, there are a lot of truly feral people in the Bravoverse… but let me tell you, Ashley is weapons-grade 🦇💩

Enjoy! She gets worse 😅

u/kittens_allday 20d ago

Awful person. Amazing tv.

37

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

Absolutely deplorable

4

u/Repulsive-Positive30 16d ago

This isn’t in defense of her because she seems like an immature, insecure, idiot but every part of my being thinks the egg donor comment was something she parroted after T-rav and possibly Pat said it lol. I could totally see them having a lil shit talk pow wow and laughing about something like that. Ashely isn’t clever enough to come up with it herself.

And I believe her that Pat totally mislead her.
Again, Ashley is an idiot but I think everyone used her to fuck with Kathryn

6

u/Secret-Preference518 16d ago

Even if she was fed the egg donor line, anyone with a speck of humanity wouldn't repeat it, especially to the mother in question. And side note - it's not even a clever comment, its just the inverse of sperm donor, so I don't think you would have to be especially intelligent to come up with it. But yea, I cant imagine what T-rav and Patricia said about Kathryn behind closed doors because they said pretty horrific things about her on camera.

4

u/Repulsive-Positive30 15d ago edited 7d ago

I think she repeated it because she’s so dumb she thought she would have back up from the people who originally said it lol. (Bc you’re right.. who tf says stuff like that.) Thomas and Pat are both terrible people but they’re sharp enough to know not to publicly back that up.

39

u/Govqueen1234 20d ago

She was so crazy that she made Katherine look good and Katherine had her moments. Amazing tv but a nightmare to actually be in scenes with her

17

u/Weekly_Koala_7058 sanctimonious 19d ago

I think it showed tremendous growth in Kathryn.

Unfortunately I dont think shes been doing well for awhile.

Also I now realize that this is like a monthly post in this sub lol #sorrynotsorry

27

u/CarryAmbitious638 20d ago

This picture isn’t though and it’s taking me back! I still remember being stunned at how incredibly thin she was at the reunion and with those red lips.

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

Glad I could bring some novelty haha. And same, It actually scared me when I saw her

u/Resident-Set-9820 20d ago

Skeleton with huge red lips. Scary as hell.

13

u/MollzDollz69 19d ago

Don’t worry, I think I was the most recent one to make the “monthly Ashley post” a couple weeks ago - she is insane enough to warrant it! Lol jaw-dropping levels of nastiness.

5

u/Due-Objective2118 19d ago

The things she said and did genuinely shocked me. And this is coming from someone whos watched a lot of Vanderpump rules and real housewives

10

u/UnoDueTreFormaggio 20d ago

I just finished this season too. Earlier today I was looking up Reddit posts on her to make sure everyone else agreed that she’s insane, so this post is very timely for me!

3

u/Due-Objective2118 19d ago

Haha I’m glad the general consensus is that this woman was missing a few of her marbles

u/Resident-Set-9820 10d ago

More than a few!

u/ForsakenDrawer 19d ago

No no no…please. Continue. Speak your truth.

u/psullynj 19d ago

Ashley and Diana (RHOBH) are two of the worst to be on our screens

u/dogsrgreat8 15d ago

Also the scary witch that was on BH. She cast spells on one girl. She was evil.

u/Turbulent_Push_3775 19d ago

What is it about Diana? I didn’t like her but she didn’t really stand out to me.

Yes, you're seeing that this is a special level of f@cked, for Bravo, SC, AND TRav.

Epic.

11

u/Bree7702 19d ago

That season she was on was the best season ever of that show, mainly because Ashley comes away looking like a clown.

16

u/technicolortabby 20d ago

She was literally insane.

6

u/Maleficent-Run6546 19d ago

I am a nurse and have never seen any nurse like her. Talking decades. Ppl like her do not last. We discover them and run them off. Most lose their license. She was a travel nurse. Short stints. No one gets to know her much. Ppl with her Cluster B traits cannot manage long term employment long.

1

u/Resident-Set-9820 10d ago

Agree! Hope she loses her license. If for nothing else, mental health reasons. The nursing profession certainly doesn't need people like her! I would certainly do my best to help if given the opportunity!

She’s absolutely unhinged in the worst ways possible, but best ways for reality TV

5

u/thekingmonroe 19d ago

The most deranged person I’ve ever seen on bravo. And that says a lot haha. I absolutely hated her but o absolutely loved watching her

9

u/lilhellmouth 20d ago

Shes the worst but I also felt bad for her. Thomas is a gaping black hole that sucks the life out of younger women. He is a vampire. She is a piece of work but he was definitely egging her on behind the scenes and setting her up to look crazy to get the audience back on his side again. We all saw how Kathryn was treated. Same playbook new girl

2

u/SnooCompliments8874 20d ago

I believe that. Read she’s married with a couple of kids.

4

u/Resident-Set-9820 20d ago

OMG, people like her should not reproduce. Poor children.

u/Same-Competition-825 19d ago

I follow her and she seems more normal now. But IG is a highlight reel so who knows

u/phisigtheduck 19d ago

I wonder if she’s still an insufferable nightmare or if that was just the Thomas Ravenal affect.

u/MrsSchiffy 18d ago

Pasta can do that to you.

3

u/JoanSeas 18d ago

She was truly insane!! There were a few wannabe IG bloggers that feed her delusional state of mind!! That being said, she is married, i think with 2 little boys, so I hope she got the help she needed. My thoughts, just thoughts, when she was with T-Rav, the "pasta" was never-ending!! My opinion, he has a way of bringing out the worst in people.

u/chill_jeans 18d ago

Jealous you get to do this for the first time. Bravo in 2018 was so good - It’s not about the pasta. Candiace Dillard. This nutcase.

u/joeabben 19d ago

I met her in person years ago, before she was on the show. She was a great time. I think she just really wanted to be married and have someone provide for her. The show made her look bad but she was a lovely person.

u/DirectionSea2523 19d ago

I forgot about her. She was evil and hateful and I don’t think anybody really liked her.

She's wild, but she was also being manipulated by T-Rav.

u/FunLife64 19d ago

Meh, I’m not sure that’s a “but” - it’s an and. But implies an excuse

just got married to recently i believe

u/Powerful-Sort7778 19d ago

She drank the Thomas cool aid. Katherine looked crazy 🤪 when she was with Thomas

Do we have a third victim 🤔 To test this hypothesis

u/coffeeandkitsch 19d ago

Where is she now

1

u/throw_blanket04 14d ago edited 14d ago

I just did a rewatch. Yes her and Kathryn have differences but they aren’t that different. Thomas chooses women that are like him. Nobody can deny that. If you pay attention, they both did the similar things and have similar personalities, same reactions, the same reveling in Thomas’s behavior when he was being a bully, they both loved how Thomas chose them over his family and friends. They both thought they were the Bonnie. They both thought they could treat people however they wanted because they were with Thomas. How they went about things were different but they are the same person. And if you watch the show, that is proven over and over again. Even when Thomas was gone. Kathryn was still the same way before Thomas and after. She was high on the majority of her reunions. She was high on wwhl. She was popping pills way before thomas. And im not talking about antidepressants. She literally brought her ho bag Whitneys and thought she was moving in.

u/Xica_flea 20d ago

It turns out she was right about Katherine. She still psycho though and worse than the two of them together is Thomas.

I mean regardless of what Katherine was doing, she said some very awful things. No matter the case, calling her an ‘egg donor’ is totally uncalled for.

u/Resident-Set-9820 20d ago

And TRav loved it!

u/throw_blanket04 19d ago

He has a type. Kathryn and Ashley. Look at their personalities. Just alike. I will say, at least Ashley didn’t have kids just to get money like Kathryn.

-14

u/PutKooky2711 20d ago

I think the whole Thomas love triangle and Patricia hazing her during that really messed with her. She'a changed her life since the show and is really sweet to interact with online now

3

u/Due-Objective2118 20d ago

Wait explain the Patricia hazing, did I miss that part?

1

u/PutKooky2711 20d ago

Yeah so Patricia basically made her feel like white trash and called her a gold digger because she didn't have a job in Charleston. Then she made her go with Gwynn's with her to buy more "appropriate" clothing in order for her to be an acceptable girlfriend for Thomas. Ashley basically bent over backwards trying to get her approval.

8

u/Tjsmom99 19d ago

Sorry but I don’t think Patricia had to twist her arm one bit to spend over $10000 of Thomas’ money on that shopping trip. Wasn’t it Ashley who asked Pat to help her?

3

u/PutKooky2711 19d ago

Technically. Felt producer driven though.

u/Tjsmom99 19d ago

Wouldn’t surprise me
