“Now that I’m 37, I can date either in the 20s…30s…40s…50s…60s. I’m at this point where everybody is fair game. I can be either your girlfriend or your stepmom!”

“I’m just getting this confidence back that I didn’t have. I’m gonna have hiccups here and there, but hater’s always gonna hate. And I’m gonna continue to prosper,” said Ashley.
