Ashley revealed that she sprained her ankle while attending Beyonce‘s show at the grand opening of the new Atlantis The Royal Resort in Dubai on January 21.
“I was just walking to the bathroom afterwards, and I think I was just in a stupor a little bit. I think my friend was holding my hand and let go,” Ashley recalled. “And it was a new hotel so the pathways, that you can kind of fall off of it and my ankle strap was a little bit loose, so I fell.”
Ashley noted that she has “very weak ankles” and has surprisingly never sprained anything before because she has gotten “really good at falling,” but this time was different.
“I didn’t realize I’d sprained my ankle cause I was so embarrassed that I fell into bushes,” Ashley added.
A shocked Jennifer asked, “You fell into the bushes?!”
“Yeah I was like, ‘I’m fine. I’m fine. I’m okay.’ The dress was so short and so I had all these scratches, I was like, ‘I’m good,’ and then I got back to my seat, I was like ohhh that’s really – [my ankle] was like the size of my thigh,” Ashley recalled. “I was like, ‘I feel like that’s not great.’ So then I was in a wheelchair and crutches for a bit.”
After Jennifer noted that the sprained ankle “didn’t stop” her from attending Paris Fashion Week, Ashley said that we all have to take care of our bodies.
“Yeah I got a little overly confident,” Ashley admitted as Jennifer showed a video of her losing her balance on crutches in a dressing room. “I was like ‘Oh it’s fine,’ and the day after that it was pretty bad. Then I was like I really have to take care of myself. We have to take care of our bodies. We only have one.”
It was recently announced that Ashley will be appearing in a highly-anticipated upcoming movie!
