Ashley Jacobs Back on Southern Charm, Dating Ryan Trout: EXCLUSIVE

LOS ANGELES (LALATE EXCLUSIVE) – Ashley Jacobs is officially back on Southern Charm, LALATE can exclusively report. Jacobs filmed a scene with a nearly full cast of Southern Charm last night, LALATE has learned. Meantime, Ashley Jacobs is no longer dating Thomas Ravenel but instead is dating Ryan Trout, a former pro soccer player. LALATE has heard that producers want Trout on Southern Charm as well. But there is a twist.

Ashley Jacobs is back officially on Southern Charm, LALATE can exclusively report this Saturday morning. And the rest of the cast is not so pleased. Some of the details are still fluid and unfolding.

LALATE has exclusively learned the following details. First, Ashley Jacobs is currently under contract with BravoTV for a new season of Southern Charm. Second, Jacobs is NOW being paid for her work on Southern Charm. (Last season reports claimed that Jacobs wasn’t paid during principle photography but was only paid for the reunion.) Third, Ashley Jacobs did film a nearly full cast dinner last night. Fourth, Jacobs did NOT film with Kathryn Dennis last night. Fifth, Jacobs’ appearance was a surprise to cast members. Sixth, Jacobs is believed to have said on camera that she is broke up with Thomas Ravenel (which she is) and has a new man (which she does, his name is Ryan Trout).

Seventh, the location of last night’s shoot was the Eliza Limehouse Plantation. Eighth, the scene started with Ashley and Eliza shooting skeet. And finally, Dennis did not film with Ashley but the shoot ended with a full (minus Dennis) cast dinner.

Other details have been learned by LALATE from two sources. First, Jacobs’ appearance is approximately six weeks into filming, LALATE can report. Production had seen the first five weeks and thought the season needed Jacobs back.

Second, What will happen next? LALATE has learned Jacobs’ role is still fluid. Jacobs is under contract. Jacobs won’t be a credited performer. But production intends to have Jacobs film again, the extent of which is still unknown. However, LALATE has heard from one source that the footage last night “was pure Southern messiness” and from a second source that the footage “will bring the [ratings] numbers”.
