"90 Day Fiancé" star Ashley Smith is trashing her former employer TLC saying they paid her next to nothing.
Ashley dropped the bombshell while answering questions from fans during a Q&A on Instagram. One follower asked, "Do they pay a decent amount to be filmed on 90 day?"
The reality star didn't hold back with her answer and threw a ton of shade at the network. She answered the fan, "I could make more flipping burgers at Burger King." She
Ashley then posted a cryptic message which seems to be talking about her divorce from her husband Jay Smith. She wrote, "Sometimes "getting even" of "winning" against someone who has lied on your name for their own benefit isn't necessary. Let it eat away at their conscience if they have one, or let karma deal with it. Don't put your time and energy into someone who doesn't deserve it."
As The Blast previously reported, earlier this month, Ashley filed for divorce from Jay after accusing him of cheating on her with a stripper.
Ashley revealed the news during an Instagram story. She was hanging out with her girlfriend while drinking Martinis at a bar. The "90 Day Fiancé" star captioned the post, "Me on my way for my fourth martini after filing to be a single woman."
The divorce filing was no surprise to fans who follow Ashley on social media. She recently accused him of finding out he cheated on her once again. Ashley posted a TikTok video where she talked about the stripper. She said, "I lied to the world because I'm so shamed and embarrassed I let this happen AGAIN..."
She teared up while filming the TikTok. Ashley wrote to her fans, "I gave it my everything. i loved him so much. I took my savings to start my own business and gave it to him so he could live out his dream." Jay used the money to open an own Tattoo shop in the town where they lived together.
"And what did he do...he was messaging the stripper he originally cheated on me again, A few days later he cheated and I told him to get out. He had her bring him to my house to get his belongings," wrote Ashley.
This is the third attempt at divorce for Ashley. She has previously filed cases but dismissed them before they were finalized.
Ashley originally met Jay while on vacation in Jamaica. The two fell in love and he moved to America to live with her. Shortly after he moved, Ashley accused him of cheating on her and filed for divorce in January 2019. She dismissed the case months later.
Their reconciliation didn't work and Ashley later took out a protective order against Jay. He was accused of violating the order and was arrested by ICE. The charges were dropped and Jay was released from custody. Ashely filed for divorce a second time but dismissed it weeks later.
In April, Ashley announced she was back with Jay during a TikTok video. Things clearly didn't work out
