Ashley Iaconetti Officially Confirms She’s a Real Housewife of Rhode Island: ‘We’re Not in Kansas Anymore’
Bravo meets Bachelor Nation.
As Bachelor Nation fans know, Jared Haibon and Ashley Iaconetti Haibon first met on Season 2 of “Bachelor in Paradise” in 2015.
The two later got engaged on Season 5 of “Bachelor in Paradise” and tied the knot in August 2019. Since then, they’ve welcomed son Dawson into their lives in 2022 and their second son, Hayden, last year.
Recently, Bachelor Nation fans have been speculating that Ashley might be a future Real Housewife of Rhode Island, where she and Jared currently live.
These rumors started circulating shortly after behind-the-scenes footage of the two of them being filmed by a film crew leaked online.
And now, Ashley has taken to social media to officially confirm that she is a part of the cast for “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island.”
In a new post on Instagram, Ashley shared a trailer for the show and wrote, “Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.”
In her post, we get a sneak peek into the drama to come and see Ashley bursting into tears multiple times.
Someone describes Ashley as being “new to the group” and she confesses, “This is not the kind of people I’m usually around.”
