Just days ago, Ashley Martson was flaunting a mysterious new ring and having a grand old time.
But now comes a stunning announcement.
RadarOnline reports that Ashley going to enter rehab.
As you can see below, she seriously considered this tep and knows that it is for the best.
After her kids, her health has to come first.
See her reasoning below and you’ll understand that this brave choice was absolutely the right call.
Ashley Martson has been through so much

The public humiliations, one health crisis after another, and so much more have taken their toll, and Ashley is checking in to a mental health facility to cope. That is such a smart decision and we support her 100%.
Ashley is speaking about her brave choice

“At this time,” Ashley said in a statement to RadarOnline. “I’m focusing on my happiness and my future to better myself.”
She knows that a lot of people are rooting for her.

“I appreciate the support from TLC,” Ashley affirmed. “And the audience of 90 Day Fiance.”
So when is she doing this?

“Ashley is planning to enter rehab on Monday,” a source familiar with Ashley’s intentions shared.
What sort of facility is it?

“It’s a mental wellness retreat for women in North Carolina,” the insider reveals.
What is Ashley hoping to address?

According tot he source, Ashley is “depressed.”
How long will this stint last?

“She plans to go for two weeks,” the insider divulges. By our math, starting Monday, she’ll be out on the first day or so of July.
Wait! What about her kids?!

“Her mother will watch her children,” the source assures Ashley’s fans. Ashley is a proud and loving mother of two children.
So what brought this on?

Depression is a complicated illness that can be brought about by a number of factors. Usually, if depression is so severe that it causes a person to enter a facility to preserve their mental health, there is a specific aggravating factor.
According to the inside source, that factor is Ashley’s ex

“Jay won’t leave her alone,” the insider laments. Oh no!
But didn’t they split just over two months ago?

“He got a new apartment,” the source confirms. “But he keeps contacting her.” Not cool, dude!
It sounds like this has really been getting to her

“He’s been messing with her head,” the insider claims.
But Jay isn’t the only toxic presence in her life

The source concludes by mentioning that “She’s also been dealing with backlash from fans over social media.”
Some fans may ask about recent photos

Ashley made it very clear to her fans and followers that she was enjoying her single life. A lot of the time, people — particularly public figures — will perform happiness. This placates worried friends and family and puts on a good face for their friends.
That doesn’t mean that she wasn’t hurting

Depression rarely looks like it does on pharmaceutical commercials. A lot of people try a fake-it-’til-you-make-it approach to happiness and mental health. Sometimes it even works. Obviously, that is not always the case.
Ashley’s illness exacts a real toll

Remember, earlier this year, Ashley was found unresponsive. She was rushed to the hospital with kidney failure. The culprit? Lupus, a devastating autoimmune disease that ravages her body.
And still, some fans called her a liar

Ashley went out of her way multiple times to show fans evidence that she really has lupus, but some think that she’s lying. Maybe it’s because she smiles and parties sometimes. They just don’t understand. Chronic illness comes and goes, but it’s always there.
To be fair …

Some fans harbor these doubts because Ashley and Jay endured an Instagram fraud scandal together. Jay went live from an account that had been “leaking” the couple’s photos. A lot of people felt betrayed, and that’s fair. But it is absurd to suggest that her well-documented illness was also a fabrication.
We are alarmed by the source’s implications about Jay

Keep in mind that RadarOnline did not quote Ashley as the one leveling this accusation, but it’s troubling just the same. We would hate to think that Jay is harassing Ashley, or playing games with her heart.
The trouble is that Ashley still loves him

Ashley has come right out and admitted as much, even after multiple cheating scandals.
But love isn’t always enough

Ashley explained that loving Jay isn’t enough to stay married with him after yet another cheating scandal. She knows that she could try to make it work again, but that she would end up brokenhearted all over again.
It’s really over

And we strongly hope that Jay knows this, and that he is not deliberately trying to give her a hard time.
Will this impact the Tell All Special?

Not our first concern, of course, but fans will be relieved to know that his season’s Tell All special for Happily Ever After? filmed several weeks ago.
Maybe these two weeks will give her the space she needs

Expert care and some time to work on her health and nothing else can do a world of good.
We wish her the best of luck!

Ashley is a tremendously strong person and look forward to learning how rehab went for her. We’re sure that, in two weeks, she’ll be eager to return to her life.
