Ashley Iaconetti Admits the One Thing That Would Make Her Have More Kids
Getting candid.
As Bachelor Nation fans know, Ashley Iaconetti Haibon and Jared Haibon first met on Season 2 of Bachelor in Paradise.
They later got engaged on Season 5 of the series and tied the knot in August 2019. Since then, they’ve welcomed their son Dawson in 2022 and their second son, Hayden, in 2024.
Ashley has always been honest about her pregnancy and postpartum struggles, and she’s opening up again.
In an Instagram Q&A, one fan asked which age has been her favorite with her boys so far.
Ashley replied, “I just love 18 months+. Give me all the talking and communicating! Dawson really started thriving at 2 and Hayden is on the same trajectory.”
She then admitted the one thing that would make her consider another baby, saying, “If I could pop out a 2-year-old, we’d have another kid. It’s just those first two years (and pregnancy!!!!) that we don’t want to do over again.”
During the Q&A, Ashley also shared how she’s feeling about her upcoming show, Real Housewives of Rhode Island.
She said, “I'm pretty even-keeled. I don't really know what to expect. I'm really grateful that I've been through this before. I know Bachelor Nation is different from the Bravoverse though.”
Ashley continued, “I just hope conversations between Jared and me on the show come across as they do IRL. I'm preparing for the frustration of not always being able to expand upon what’s seen on a TV episode because of, ya know, contracts.”
We can’t wait to see Ashley and Jared bring their real-life dynamic to RHORI when it premieres in April!
