Ashley Iaconetti rose to fame on Chris Soules' season of The Bachelor followed by stints on Bachelor in Paradise and Bachelor Winter Games before eventually marrying her BiP crush, Jared Haibon , in 2019. Nearly five years later, the pair will make the move to Bravo for the network's inaugural season of The Real Housewives of Rhode Island.
“I felt like a tiny fish,” Ashley exclusively told Us Weekly in January 2026 of joining RHORI . "This experience has certainly been a ton different than The Bachelor. That's all I can say. It was interesting and I'm excited for it to air.”
According to Ashley, she and Jared thought “heavily” about whether to make the leap from Bachelor to Bravo.
“I've just watched, like, here and there in the background whenever my mom would watch old-school New York ,” Ashley told Us of her Bravo history. “I do feel, based on the couple episodes of Jersey that I've seen that yes, I vibe that. I do think that Rhode Island is underratedly very Jersey.”
Ashley isn't the only member of Bachelor Nation to find a second home on Bravo. Keep scrolling for more:
