Whitney Sudler-Smith is the creator and executive producer of Southern Charm. For 10 seasons, Whitney has watched this series evolve on Bravo. Admittedly, various years have been better than others. But if you ask Whitney, the two seasons that featured Ashley Jacobs were “riveting,” as Ashley brought the drama to a rather stale era of Southern Charm.

Ashley appeared as a friend on Season 5 of Southern Charm. Her entrance made sense, as she was dating Thomas Ravenel, a series regular. Yet, Ashley clashed with Kathryn Dennis, the mother of Thomas’ two children.
Ashley popped up again as a guest briefly on Season 6, where she and Kathryn once again came to verbal blows, and the bulk of the cast (and the viewers) took sides with Kathryn.
