Whatever Happened To Temptation Island's Rick And Ashley?

As Ashley explained to Bustle, "I allowed myself to invest in those feelings because I knew that Rick was doing the same thing." Of course, Ashley was alluding to Rick's past cheating, which was the reason the couple went on the show. That being said, Ashley did say she felt "guilt and regret" the next day.

Rick's response to Ashley's intimate moments with KB was that of both "shock" and "embarrassment" as he described to PopCulture. The reality star told the outlet, "I know this chick did not bring me here to be doing this ... off-the-bat full-blown cheat." About the "handcuffing" remark, he said he "didn't think it was going to be as impactful" as it was.

Even though Rick expressed disbelief at the cheating, he ended up asking Medinah out on the show, and as ScreenRant reports, was secretly with Medinah when he left the island with Ashley. The seemingly-happy couple were broken up by the reunion episode, confirmed by Rick's Jan. 2020 tweet: "For everyone wondering, I'm single."

Ashley also posted a break-up confirmation on her Instagram, captioning photos of her and Rick with, "I want to thank @rickfleur for being on a rollercoaster ride with me that has come to an end. Sometimes we get so comfortable with toxic relationships but we've learned it's time to grow and move forward separately." Wishing only the best for the couple, who are on a mission to remain friends and "respectful" of each other!
