Ashley Iaconetti Can't Stop Her Feelings in Hilarious 6th-Grade Diary Entry
When she was an early teenager, Ashley Iaconetti might have cried a river over her love for a certain boy band pop sensation.
On Tuesday, Ashley uploaded a photo on Instagram showing a page from her sixth-grade diary that she thought gave her "Clare and Dale vibes," alluding to Clare Crawley and her season of "The Bachelorette."
She penned (in pencil) at the time, "I know I will look at this and laugh at some point before marrying Justin Timberlake. I know I will marry him, I can't describe the feeling in words, I just know."
Ashley just "can't stop the feeling" she had for J.T.!

Although her marriage to Justin Timberlake would have been something out of a Hollywood rom-com, she still managed to create her own fairy-tale happy ending with husband Jared Haibon.
Ashley and Jared celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary in August and are open about trying to start a family. The "Bachelor in Paradise" couple has spent much of quarantine on the East Coast with their families, and on September 20, Ashley posted a photo on the water in Connecticut and wrote, "We’re pretty ready to move back to the East Coast soon."

In March, Ashley and Jared told Becca Kufrin and Rachel Lindsay on "Bachelor Happy Hour" that a move back east has always been in the cards, especially as they get ready to have kids.
If one major lesson can be gleaned from Ashley's diary entry, it's to never say "bye bye bye" to hopes and dreams!
