Though The Real Housewives of Potomac‘s first season is just a few episodes old, the Ashley Darby drama won’t stop: it seems as if the bubbly 24-year-old can’t please any of her fellow castmates, no matter what she tries. Next up? RHOP mainstay Robyn Dixon, who’s been relatively kind to Ashley onscreen–but who sure wasn’t afraid to share what she really feels about Darby in a viral blog post.
At least some of the Ashley Darby drama can be traced back to the fact that her multimillionaire husband is 29 years older than her. It seems the mere presence of the couple is enough to make the rest of the RHOP cast feel jealous, superior, and confused. Gizelle Bryant, in particular, has been outspoken in her criticism of the budding society girl, calling Ashley a “THOT” in her very first RHOP appearance.
The fallout from that particular insult looks to pervade the rest of the season–but, for now, it’s Robyn Dixon who’s starting a new Ashley Darby feud. Though Dixon has been a calm and welcoming presence in the past…
…she likely torched a good bit of that reputation with her recent (and official!) Robyn Dixon RHOP blog update. A freewheeling Robyn said, among other things, that meeting the infamously coiffed Ashley for the first time was like encountering a “horny poodle.” And she didn’t stop there:
For some reason, Ashley seemed very pressed to be our friend, but instead of making us like her, she just looked thirsty! If first impressions are really lasting impressions, then Ashley will NEVER be taken seriously by me! I mean, really, what grown woman humps another grown woman at a charity event, especially upon meeting for the first time? I thought a horny poodle had attacked me and wouldn’t let go. She really took me back to my college days at parties when some girls would have way too much to drink and act like fools.
Nevertheless, the Ashley Darby drama didn’t turn Robyn all the way off. “I guess you could say there was one good thing about being humped by Ashley,” Robyn went on. “She made me feel like a kid again! Awkward introduction and all, I haven’t written the horny poodle off completely.” At the same time, it’s perhaps worth noting that the latest Ashley Darby drama appeared to keep Robyn from getting an invite to last night’s official RHOP watch party:
Great time last night with @GizelleBryant @KatieRost @CharrisseJordan – @OzArlington #rhop and #wwhl watch party! pic.twitter.com/dRUKWkf18a — Ashley (@_AshleyDarby) February 1, 2016
