The Bachelorette Bio
Ashley, who resides in Philadelphia, went from being one of the favorites to capture Brad's heart on the 15th edition of the hit romance reality series The Bachelor to narrowly missing her goal of finding a future husband.
Ashley and Brad clicked on their enchanting first date at a private carnival, discovering an electric connection and sharing a magical first kiss.
After showing Brad her charming hometown and his meeting her family, the rollercoaster ride took them to South Africa, where, in a stunning turnaround, their relationship fell apart. It seemed the couple wanted different things out of life.
Ashley was frustrated she couldn't communicate her feelings to Brad, and he gallantly decided to let her go before the rose ceremony, knowing he would not offer her a rose. Ashley was surprised
and heartbroken that her perfect fairytale came to an abrupt end.
It would take her time to find the silver lining to this bad situation and move forward.
That time has come and now Hebert, stronger and more confident than ever, is prepared to find a balance between her career and personal life and find the love of her life.
She fell in love once on The Bachelor, so she truly believes that it will happen again - and this time she will be ready and open to express her feelings to the right guy.
A native of Madawaska, Maine, Ashley is the youngest of three siblings. An academic scholar, she graduated summa cum laude from the University of Maine with a BS in biology.
A love of dance fueled many of Ashley's successes. She was Maine's 2002 Junior Miss and went on to compete in America's Junior Miss, where she received a scholarship for the fitness portion of the competition.
She was the captain of the dance team in college and also worked in an after-school program teaching dance. Ashley attended the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine and graduated in May 2011 with a 3.96 GPA and the degree of DMD, Doctor of Dental Medicine.
She still teaches dance: ballet, jazz and hip hop.
Ashley loves her family, including her nieces, nephew and her dog, Boo. Her most romantic date would consist of a night staying in with her guy, a bottle of wine, music and a roaring fireplace.
Which one of the bachelors will she meet on the series to share that perfect scenario with her? Ashley can't wait to find out.
