'Bachelorette' Ashley Hebert Not Bringing in the Big Bucks or Bentley

This Girl Needs to Look for More Than Romance!

TRESA PATTERSON

Everyone drawn in to watching the drama and all that drinking that is standard operating procedure for "The Bachelorette" has undoubtedly thought to herself or himself, "Well so what if it doesn't work out, she gets the money." Well, in Ashley Herbert's case, she may be rethinking whether all her drama has been worth it. It took her until last week to get the revelation that all of the other guys and the rest of the known universe grasped from the first episode that Bentley Williams was a bad guy, and that was from blatant confrontation over female intuition. Now it turns out that all her tears and turmoil may not even garner her financial satisfaction in the end.



According to what Ashley told to Us Weekly, her bank balance only got a 30,000 boost for her two months of filming the reality show. The limo drivers likely draw better salaries, and don't have to dry teardrops from the seats every week of the year, either. If there is a union for reality romance stars, Ashley should have them take a look at her case, because compared to "The Bachelor" stars and those of her sister predecessors, she's getting peanuts, in spite of the platform to play perfect companion! She should invest some effort in a better agent along with a lifelong partner!

    Happy Independence Day! I don't watch the show, but you gave some keen insight!

  • Jack Wellman7/4/2011

    I would not have enough guts to do this. You are such a wonderful writer my friend.

    Wow...you are one of a kind my friend. May God richly bless you. Happy Independence day.

    Poor Ashley seems to get the raw end of the deal in almost every area. I can't imagine a happy ending at this point, but I'm hoping for it anyway.

    My sis in law was asked to do Wife Swap, which she turned down, but they offered more than that for two weeks. Of course Wife Swap isn't as fun as being the Bachelorette!

  • Sandy James7/2/2011

    I wouldn't do reality shows and maybe she shouldn't have either.

  • Cathy A Montville7/2/2011

    Perfectly stated in your last line!

  • Abby Greenhill7/2/2011

    She got a boat load of fantastic vacations, that surely counts for something. Isn't she supposed to be in it for love, not money?
