Real Housewives of Potomac’s Ashley Darby Split From Michael Darby Was Because of ‘Trust Issues’ & ‘Inconsistencies’, Says Source

The insider also claims Ashley is allegedly ready to start dating again and has been telling her friends,

“that she considers herself single and has been asking to be set up on dates.”

“She’s been done and is clearly ready to move on.” 

In Ashley’s statement released on Tuesday, the reality star said in part,

“Almost eight years ago, when Michael and I said ‘I do,’ we anticipated sharing every single day together from that moment forward. Unfortunately, that is not our current reality. We have decided to separate. We are aware that there will be many speculative views as to why we have made this decision. People will be quick to assume that the causes were too much intrusion by reality TV into the most personal parts of our lives, age gap issues, cultural problems, or child-rearing differences. Pieces of all these may have affected our pure love for each other, but no one reason is the root cause of our mutual decision to go our separate ways.”

Ashley went on to say that she and Michael’s goal is to continue to be great parents to their children and asked for privacy during this difficult time.

“While our romantic bond is broken, we will always love and respect each other. We also know that true happiness can only be achieved by continuing to work together and putting our hearts and souls into raising our two beautiful boys, Dean and Dylan. They will always feel loved and supported, for they were truly created out of love. As this is a personal matter for us, we appreciate everyone who has been a part of our journey and ask for your continued support by respecting us as we go through this emotional situation.”

Ashley and Michael Darby tied the knot in 2014 and has since welcomed two children–2-year-old Dean and 1-year-old Dylan.
