Ashley Michelle is still getting used to the person in the mirror. The 90 Day Fiancé alum posted a side-by-side photo eight weeks after surgery and wrote that she does not recognize either version of herself. The post is more about disorientation than celebration.
90 Day Fiancé: What She Wrote
In the photo, her starting picture sits on the left and her current look on the right. Her caption says it is hard to believe either version is really her. She does not remember the woman on the left. “I don’t recognize her on the right,” she wrote, as TV Shows Room reported. She added that she never really took in how much weight she lost. She put the amount at over 140 pounds.
Ashley has shared her fitness progress for years. She revealed at the Season 10 Tell-All that she had lost about 100 pounds. The recent post follows a tummy tuck and a breast procedure. Outlets describe the second surgery differently, so we are leaving the exact procedure out. Fans filled the comments with support. Many called her an inspiration. Some asked for tips, since she now helps others with their goals.
90 Day Fiancé: The Personal Context
The post lands weeks after Ashley announced a divorce from Manuel Velez. On September 7, a day before their fourth anniversary, she wrote on Instagram that she had felt unsupported for years and said she was done. Manuel has not made an official statement. He posted a nature photo on his Instagram Story with a note that he just wants peace and quiet, as TV Insider covered.
