Ashley Iaconetti Opens Up About First Kiss for International Kissing Day

Ashley Iaconetti Haibon, better known as Ashley I. from "The Bachelor" franchise, is opening up about her first kiss in a new social media post in honor of International Kissing Day.

She is also partnering with Restylane for the big occasion.

Ashley I. posted the above photo to her Instagram account for International Kissing Day to reveal her new partnership and open up about an intimate time in her life.

"My first kiss was at 19 (a bit late, I know), and per usual, it did not go down as romantically as I imagined it would," she began to explain. "I am not in my element while dancing, but I was convinced by one of my sister's rocker guy friends. The next thing you know, we were kissing – what an experience. Little did I know my love life and my lips would be getting much more attention...on national TV! "

The 35-year-old said, "I've always been open with you about what I do to keep feeling my most confident and beautiful." That is when she revealed her new partnership with Restylane, explaining, "I have Restylane Kysse in my lips, and I'm a huge fan of my natural-looking results. It's a small tweak, mostly in my top lip. I feel like the added fullness creates a more youthful look for me, and I can still smile and express myself normally (1,2). Plus, in their Kysse-ability study, Restylane found that 90% of partners were satisfied with the appearance of their partner's lips. Jared knows when I get my lips Kysse-d, I come home looking like myself and even more kissable. (3)*"

Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon were on again and off again during their appearances on "Bachelor In Paradise," but they made it official three years later.

"Bachelor Nation hasn't seen many important details that make up our story. I thought there was no better way to explain to the people who have followed our love lives for over three years than by filming our episode of The Story of Us," Iaconetti told PEOPLE.

Haibon added, "Our close friends have watched our relationship evolve and understand how we've gotten to this point. But people who haven't been part of our day-to-day lives ask, ' Wait, how did this happen?' With this show, it allowed me to elaborate more than just saying 'I'm an idiot.'"

The two got married on August 11, 2022. "For our family and friends, we wanted people out of state to fall in love with Rhode Island. I see its beauty, but I wanted our guests to see it. So we created an experience for our guests," Haibon said of the big day. "The chapel we got married in is a historic, old church in the heart of Newport. It's intimate, small, and breathtaking. We had a trolley that picked up our guests to bring them to Rosecliff Mansion, this beautiful road you go down, so we wanted to make an experience out of it."
