Teen Mom’s Ashley Jones Goes IG Official With Boyfriend After Bar Divorce
Teen Mom: The Next Chapter star Ashley Jones is making her romance with her boyfriend, Orlando, Instagram official.
“No comment on the game … but the food at Allegiant Stadium is fireeee 😂😂,” Jones, 27, wrote via Instagram on Monday, October 14.
Alongside the message, Jones shared a snap with her beau at a Las Vegas Raiders game. The pair were all smiles as he placed his arm around her.
While remaining tight-lipped about Orlando last month, Jones exclusively told Us Weekly in September, “All I can say is he is amazing. He’s really a blessing.” Jones added that she’s “very hesitant” to post their romance on Instagram because “social media is not so nice.”
When asked for her thoughts on dating, Jones told Us, “I’m young, I’m hot, still got perky boobs and I’m not going to let it go to waste. I’m going to live my life. I think it’s important that we spend less time crying over s—-y situations and more time just living.”
During an episode of Teen Mom that aired in September, Jones explained that she thought her estranged husband, Bar Smith, was upset after she shared an image on her Instagram Story with Orlando.
“Bar did not like the post,” she said on the show. “Two seconds later, he calls me. I hang up. Then he texts me, ‘Is that your new guy? I’m going to Nevada,’ and I’m just, like, I don’t know if he’s serious.”
Jones’ filed divorce from Smith, 27, in August after three years of marriage. Per court documents obtained by Starcasm, the twosome went their separate ways in March. She is seeking sole custody of their 6-year-old daughter, Holly, and requested that the court set the child support amount. Jones also filled out the parenting time share and holiday schedule, requesting no visitation for Smith.
“[Bar] is currently in jail awaiting trial for a DV case against myself,” she reportedly wrote in court documents. “He is in jail on multiple felony charges. Given that he is already on probation out of California for gun charges and he is 1728974253 in Nevada custody on more serious charges, I fear his decision making skills are very questionable.” Us reached out to Jones and Smith’s teams for comment at the time.
Us confirmed in July that Smith was arrested and charged with two felonies, including second-degree kidnapping and coercion domestic violence with the threat of or using physical force. He’s also facing a misdemeanor charge of harassment. He has yet to comment on his legal troubles.
Jones and Smith made their debut on the MTV series Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant in March 2018.
Teen Mom: The Next Chapter airs Thursdays on MTV at 8 p.m. ET. and stream past episodes on Paramount+.
