Details about the Real Housewives of Rhode Island cast continue to trickle in, and this latest update is pretty unexpected. Allegedly, Bachelor alum Ashley Iaconetti has been spotted filming for the show. Are reality TV worlds colliding?
Has Ashley Iaconetti joined the Real Housewives of Rhode Island cast?
Since Bravo has not confirmed any details about the RHORI cast, we have to take all of the rumors with a grain of salt. However, a TikToker recently shared images of Ashley in a park with another rumored cast member, Jo-Ellen Tiberi. They had their kids in tow, along with a full film crew. It definitely looks Housewivesy.
Ashley, who has appeared on several Bachelor Nation shows, married fellow Bachelor alum Jared Haibon in 2019. They met on Bachelor in Paradise, had two kids, and now they live in the Ocean State. Perhaps we’ll get to see more of their family life on Bravo?
Of course, we can’t confirm that these ladies were filming for RHORI, but it certainly looks that way. And if you’re feeling skeptical about bringing Bachelor Nation to the Housewives, you might be in the minority. Plenty of fans on TikTok seemed thrilled about Ashley potentially joining the show.
“She was made for this, and she is terrible at maintaining composure,” wrote one person.
Another added, “When you think of Bachelor Nation and messy you think of Ashley I. You’re in good hands.”
If Ashley is a part of the cast, she wouldn’t be the first Bachelor Nation alum to make the jump over to Bravo. Jasmine Goode, who stars on The Valley, competed on Nick Viall’s season of The Bachelor. Perhaps the Bachelor to Bravo pipeline is becoming a thing? We’ll see!
