The Bachelorette Ashley Hebert says that she can understand how rough reality television can be. She is currently engaged to Bachelorette winner J.P. Rosenbaum and revealed that she sympathizes with Courtney Robertson. Courtney won Ben Flajnik’s season of the popular reality show and became the girl that everyone loved to hate.

She mistreated all of the other women on the show, but still shocked viewers by winning the show — and Ben’s heart. During her appearance at Svedka’s Night Of A Billion Reality Stars in Los Angeles, Ashley said that she is confident that Courtney is a better person now that she has gone through the whole process herself.

She said, “You learn about yourself, you learn about what’s right, what’s wrong. I think she probably came out of it a stronger woman.”

Courtney was rotten to all of the other women in her pursuit of Ben’s love and affection. During the Women Tell All special, an emotional Courtney apologized for treating the women like crap.

She said, “I’m disappointed in myself and how I treated the women. Looking back, there’s so many thing I would have done differently.”

Do you think she is a changed woman? Or is she still the vile woman as she was portrayed on the reality show?

The Bachelor winner Courtney Robertson and the former Bachelorette Ashley Hebert are side-by-side on the cover of the latest issue of Reality Weekly.

Now that we know that Courtney has moved in with her fiance Ben Flajnik, the tabloid is suggesting that she is also pregnant with their first child. In addition to that, they are also announcing Ashley’s pregnancy with her fiancee, J.P. Rosenbaum. He joked about her being pregnant during the After The Final Rose special for Ben and Courtney. She quickly debunked the statement, telling him that’s how rumors get started.

Still, it would be cute if Ashley and J.P. worked out in the long-term and had a baby together. They seem like a genuine couple, unlike Ben and Courtney. All throughout season 16 of the show, we were wondering what was wrong with Ben for wanting to pick someone like Courtney. Is he really that shallow? Apparently so, because he chose this vapid twit to move in with.

So are Courtney and Ashley really expecting their first babies? Or is this cover just a bunch of hokey?

Also featured in this issue are Kim and Khloe Kardashian and their feud. Why are they warring? In addition, the magazine claims to have the real reason Bear Grylls was fired from the Discovery Channel. Lastly, they’ve got inside secrets from the set of Fashion Star.

The latest issue of In Touch Weekly features The Bachelorette lovebirds Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum with their dream wedding on its front cover.

Their cover touts: “Her vintage gown, their handwritten vows, the romantic first dance!”

Ashley said, “I get to spend my life with my best friend.” Awwww…

Also featured in this issue is Teen Mom star Leah Messer, confirming the rumors that she’s pregnant. They also spotlight how Angelina Jolie ruined Christmas this year…because she’s such a Grinch! Ha. No she’s not.

In addition to all of that goodness, they’ve also got an inset photo of the new Bachelor, Ben Flajnik, with his “gay scandal”.

I am glad to see that Ashley and J.P. are still together, they do make a cute couple. He did seem like the only guy that was really on the show for Ashley and not for his own selfish purposes. We’re looking at you, Bentley.

Are you excited to see their wedding photos when they tie the knot? Hit us up in the comments and let us know your thoughts.

The Bachelorette star, Ashley Hebert and her fiancee, J.P. Rosenbaum say that they’re not planning to make their return to the small screen anytime soon!

The happy couple became engaged on the season finale of the show, and he presented her with a Neil Lane engagement ring worth $60,000. Ashley said, “I don’t think you’ll be seeing us on TV unless you Tivoed those episodes.”

When asked about the prospect of a televised wedding, J.P. said, “We talk about it in jest sometimes, but no real thought has gone into it.”

She went on to reveal, “We built this great foundation. We’ve been engaged for two months, but I feel like we’ve been together for years. We have a fairytale…but like the world say, there’s ups and downs. It’s not perfect, but it’s great. It’s a real relationship. It’s not like we’re in la-la-land.”

J.P. also discussed this season’s villain, Bentley Williams, saying, “We’ve come to the other side and we couldn’t be happier.”

Ashley is planning to move to New York to be with J.P. within the next month. Of that, she said, “J.P.’s in New York. He’s settled here, he’s happy here. I’m really excited to be with him. And I have no hesitation about moving in. I think we’re ready for that. He cleaned out a closet for me. How sweet is that?”

How long do you think they’re going to last?

The Bachelorette star, Ashley Hebert covers the latest issue of People magazine, talking about her engagement to JP Rosenbaum!

Regarding her decision to pick JP, she said, “I’ve never even looked back for a second on my decision.”

She also reveals that she credits JP with helping her get over that douchebucket user, Bentley Williams. This still puzzles me because she went into that with a warning that he was there for other purposes and still pursued him. I would’ve chucked him out the door on the first night, well, right after the drunk dude who passed out.

She revealed, “Our relationship really started after we left the show. The show made us stronger than if we’d met on the outside.”

Are you happy that she picked JP? Was it a surprise at all, considering that there were leaked paparazzi photos of the two of them together weeks ago? Did you think she should end up with Ben?

Thoughts?

You won’t have to wait too much longer before you see who Ashley Hebert picks for her Bachelorette winner, but here is some news… She says in a new interview that she’s “so happy and in love.” Cue the awwwwwwws.

During the taping of Sunday’s Men Tell All special, she reveals that she’s found a great guy. J.P., maybe?!? We know for sure that it wasn’t that jerk Bentley, because he declined their offer to attend the show.

She said, “There were certainly moments where I thought I’d made a mistake agreeing to be the Bachelorette and thought it wasn’t going to end well. But you come out a stronger person and learn so many things about yourself. Ultimately, I know I did the right thing.”

She went on to reveal that all of the pain and heartbreak she went through was worth it in the end. She said, “I’m so happy, so in love. I found a great man. It’s going strong – we’ve been hanging out and talking all the time. I hoped I would leave with this type of relationship.”

The finale is Monday night and Ashley is excited to get it all out in the public eye, so she can move on with her daily life. She added, “I’m really ready for this to be over so we can go into the light of day and get on with normal everyday life.”

In case you’ve been keeping up with Ashley Hebert’s quest to find true love on The Bachelorette, then we’ve got some scoop for you! (Read CelebDirtyLaundry’s official Bachelorette recap here to get caught up!)

Spoiler alert! In case you haven’t watched yet! (continue reading…)

The star of the latest season of The Bachelorette, Ashley Hebert, graces the cover of the July 11, 2011 issue of Life & Style magazine. Apparently, after choosing her Mr. Right, she’s been betrayed again!

At first, she was betrayed by resident bad boy, Bentley Williams, after he led her on and then broke her heart. He was saying all kinds of nasty things behind her back, but to her face, he was as nice as pie. They reunited in Hong Kong where they turned their “dot dot dot” into a “period”.

After Bentley’s cruel taunts, it’s revealed that her new fiancee already has a girlfriend back home! Oh noes!

Did she really think that she would find love on a reality television show? Seriously, as much as this woman whined that people weren’t on the show for her, you would think that she would be prepared to be used for ratings. Isn’t that what she’s been doing to those 25 guys in the first place?!??

Also in this issue are Kim Zolciak’s baby boy, Teen Mom Catelynn’s college, wedding & babies, along with Jessica Simpson’s wedding in Hawaii.

If you were curious as to how much Ashley Hebert made as a result of her two month filming for The Bachelorette, then the news may just surprise you.

She made a cool $30,000 for her role on the show, which is a lot lower than some of the other stars. Reportedly, others have made in the $100,000 range, which is a good take for two months of filming a reality show. The show was taped from mid-March through mid-May of this year.

If you want to compare, former Bachelor Jason Mesnick, who appeared on the 2009 season of the show, raked in the same amount for his two hour wedding special with Molly Malaney.

It does seem strange that she wouldn’t get paid as much. I wonder if the show executives thought she wouldn’t pull in the ratings. She sure is getting a lot of media attention and tabloid coverage.

Why do you think she was paid over a third less than the other stars of the show? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

According to Life & Style magazine, the new star of The Bachelorette, Ashley Hebert was tortured for her looks!

When she was on The Bachelor, she was turning to food to cope with the stress and her feelings for Brad Womack. As a result of comfort eating, she noticed that she packed on ten pounds. Now, she reveals how she decided to change her diet and exercise, just in time for her upcoming wedding!

She said, “I don’t drink as much, and I don’t eat as many desserts as last time. Now it’s fruits, vegetables, salads and chicken – staying healthy.”

She also revealed that she got into more physically demanding exercises so that she could drop the extra weight. She revealed, “I teach dance classes – jazz and hip-hop – so I get a good mix of exercise types.”

When she wasn’t teaching dance, she was also into a “bodypump” class to burn extra calories. She added, “It’s a new, enlightened me. I’m happy. I’m in such a great place right now!”

On the magazine’s cover, it says, “After being called ‘ugly’ and ‘flat’, Ashley opens up about her insecurities and how her fiance made her feel sexy again.”

Also in this issue, Kim Kardashian’s super expensive wedding registry. Duh, she obviously likes spending other people’s money. Jennifer Aniston also makes an appearance in this issue to tell the world that she’s not a homewrecker. In addition, they’re going inside Lindsay Lohan’s house arrest (where she likes to make money by sitting at home).

The Bachelorette star Ashley Hebert made last night’s episode of the reality show all about honesty. But, there is a hitch. She can’t seem to move forward in any positive direction with the remaining men until she has some closure on the Bentley Williams issue.

He left her high and dry, telling her that he wanted to go back home because he missed his daughter, Cozy. In reality, in his confessionals, he said that he really wasn’t into Ashley. He went as far as saying that he was going to make her cry and that he wished the new Bachelorette was actually Emily Maynard.

Obviously, Ashley didn’t get to see his dirtbag footage, so she feels that there was something there and wants to get it resolved before moving on.

At the end of last night’s episode, Ashley tells Chris that she wants some closure with Bentley and he said that he would see what he could do. They show a preview of next week’s episode, with Chris telling Ashley that Bentley is in Hong Kong, staying at the same hotel she is.

Obviously the other guys are miffed. But, we’ve heard reports that Bentley won’t be sticking around for too long. So, let’s just hope that she sees through him and picks a guy that’s actually there for the right reasons.

Do you think Bentley will be the next Bachelor? Or will Emily Maynard be the next Bachelorette? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

The villain on this season of The Bachelorette, Bentley Williams, may just have to return to the show to apologize to the star, Ashley Hebert!

We’ve already heard that it wasn’t going to be the last of Bentley that we’d see this season, so here’s his way back in to mess with her some more. He obviously wasn’t attracted to her and definitely wasn’t there for the right reasons, so why even bother?

His father Gregory said that it’s not like his son to be mean and he should redeem himself. Gregory said, “My son needs to apologize!”

He continued, “I’m sure people think he’s a bad guy, but he’s not. He’s not cruel or mean. If Bentley knew that Ashley’s feelings were hurt, he would want to apologize to her. Anytime someone has a chance to redeem themselves, they should.”

He certainly does need to apologize! It looked like he took pleasure in telling her lies and we can’t just chalk that up to the editing, can we? He came off as a jerk, plain and simple. He wasn’t there for Ashley, he was there for Bentley.

What do you think? Should she let him come back to say that he’s sorry?

A few weeks ago, there were rumblings that the current star of The Bachelorette, Ashley Hebert was in talks to star on season 13 of Dancing With The Stars. According to sources, the rumors are true!

A source close to the casting department at ABC tells Earsucker.com that Ashley will continue her association with the network, after her Bachelorette days are done.

Ashley will be following in the footsteps of former Bachelor/Bachelorette stars Jake Pavelka, Trista Sutter and Melissa Rycroft. The new season is slated to begin in September, and by that time, we’re sure Ashley will still be the talk of the town. I’m sure she’ll have her bachelor winner picked out, televised and possibly dumped by then. By that time, we’re also going to predict that this season’s villain, Bentley Williams, will either be the new Bachelor or he’ll have a part on the new season of Bachelor Pad.

ABC is rallying hard to get Ashley to join their ranks, but she does have a dance background. I would’ve gathered by previous seasons that this might be an unfair advantage. What do you think?

Will you watch DWTS with Ashley competing for the mirror ball trophy?

According to The Bachelorette host Chris Harrison, Ashley Hebert is set to give this season’s villain, Bentley Williams, another shot. In a new interview, the host revealed that Ashley is bringing the bad guy back. We could speculate that it’s either for the ratings or the fact that she’s ignorant of the bad things he’s been saying behind her back.

Chris said, “She wants that closure – she will definitely get that. Bentley comes back and they will solve this.”

The interviewer asked if Ashley begged the show’s producers to have Bentley make his return to the show, but Chris assured fans that’s not the case. He said, “I told her point blank she calls the shots. There are no rules.”

Do you really want to see Ashley bring Bentley back? How about after the news hit that he and his ex-wife were seemingly plotting to bring awareness to their clothing line? Perhaps he really did wish that the new Bachelorette was Emily Maynard, because she and his ex bare a striking resemblance. He definitely has a type.

Former Bachelor winner Emily Maynard has opened up about the recent drama surrounding Bachelorette contestant, Bentley Williams.

If you’ll recall, Bentley embarrassed Ashley Hebert, coming on the show for the wrong reasons and insulting her behind her back. He claimed that it was his hope that the new star of the show would actually be Emily, instead of Ashley. He referred to her as a stunner and said that, in comparison, Ashley is just an “ugly duckling”.

Now, Emily is opening up about Bentley’s confession about her — and she’s giving it to us straight. In a new interview, she commented that she didn’t feel he would’ve been any different for her than he is for Ashley. She said, “He clearly had an agenda for being on the show, and it wasn’t to fall in love. It’s hard for me to believe that someone could be that hurtful and just mean spirited.”

Emily went on to say, “If I were Bentley, I would certainly be sleeping with one eye open.”

I hope they’re not thinking about making him the next Bachelor, because that would just be awful. We really don’t need to glorify that type of behavior, do we?

Bentley Williams appeared on The Bachelorette not to woo Ashley Hebert, but to promote his business. He said behind her back that he hoped it was Emily Maynard who would be the next Bachelorette. He even went as far as saying that Ashley is an “ugly duckling”.

He was as nice as pie to her face, yet talked trash about her behind her back. Then, he even lied to her about the real reason why he left the show. He claimed that he missed his daughter Cozy, even though we found that he was just not into Ashley at all.

Now, we’re hearing rumblings that he’s being geared up for the next season of The Bachelor!

A relative of Bentley’s said, “They’re setting him up for that.”

Why? So he can be a total jerk to 25 more women? Who would watch that? Would you? This show is nothing but a drama filled soap opera. He’s just playing the victim really well, don’t you think?

Would you watch The Bachelor with Bentley?

People magazine is also featuring the latest drama surrounding The Bachelorette star Ashley Hebert. Obviously, they did it a lot better than OK!’s version of the same story. Don’t you think?

Behind her back, Bentley Williams called Ashley an “ugly duckling” and said that he wished the new Bachelorette was actually Emily Maynard.

Commenting on the Bentley drama, Ashley said, “I’m extremely humiliated. He had intentions to really hurt me – and he did.”

She apparently had no idea that he was trash talking her during his confessions up until last month.

People reports:

Even though Ashley lived the experiences of the show – like the night showcased on Monday’s episode when she broke down in tears after some of the men insulted her at a Los Angeles comedy club – she had no idea about Bentley’s remarks until the show started airing in May.

“I got played,” says Ashley, “just as maybe every woman in America has been played.”

I hope she doesn’t let that fool come back. It just leaves the door open for him to waltz back in. You know what else it leaves the door open for? A possible romance between him and Emily. What do you think?

On the cover of the June 20th issue of OK! magazine, The Bachelorette star Ashley Hebert is “stabbed in the heart”. According to the publication, Bentley Williams humiliated Ashley in front of America, but she’s still pursuing him!

Does this girl need her head examined??? Or does the drama just make for good ratings?

In the beginning of the show, Ashley was informed by a friend that Bentley wasn’t there for the right reasons. So, instead of just letting him pass on by without a rose, she gives him one. She was warned!

So, this jerk talks smack behind her back, because he’s obviously not that into her. Then, he lies to her face and tells her that he has to get home to his daughter, Cozy.

Also featured on the cover is the Twilight wedding, Teen Mom Maci Bookout eloping and a story about Mob Wives’ amazing makeover.

What do you think of the Ashley/Bentley drama? I’ve heard reports that it’s not even over yet! Since he really didn’t offer any closure on the show, there’s always room for this twit to weasle his way back in.

The newest star of The Bachelorette, Ashley Hebert, says that she is not insecure. She lost out on the ninth season of The Bachelor, failing to win Brad Womack’s heart, but says that she is far more confident now.

She said, “A misconception people have when they watch the show is that I’m insecure. I am so secure and confident and a lot of what happened between Brad and me brought out some weird side of me that doesn’t define who I am.”

The show premiered last Monday, with Ashley facing 25 new men, who were trying to woo her. Among the guys, was a guy named Tim, who got so drunk that he almost needed to be carried out. Another guy, Jeff, insisted on wearing a mask throughout the evening.

In the next episode, Ashley travels to Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Fiji, in her search for love with the right guy. Of that, she said, “People will be surprised with what they see. I think it’s a season people are going to get attached to and want to know what happens.”

Will you be tuning in?

Last night, the premiere episode of The Bachelorette was on, showcasing twenty-five men for Ashley Hebert to choose from. Some were impressive, others weren’t so much. (Read the full recap on CelebDirtyLaundry!)

The guys rolled up in limousines, all with plans to impress Ashley. She was warned about one guy, Bentley Williams, prior to the show. She said that she received a call from a friend who told her that Bentley was on the show for reasons other than finding love. She wasn’t sure whether or not to believe this friend, so she decided to give him a chance. (continue reading…)
