"34. Grateful doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel," Ashley wrote in the caption of her June 8 post, which featured a stunning picture of the RHOP mom, all smiles, in a sultry dress with cutouts.

Ashley also shared another gorgeous picture of herself from the same photo shoot on Instagram, along with penning a heartfelt caption acknowledging her appreciation for how far she had come as she marked another year around the sun. "I'm truly thankful for every single turn that’s brought me here," she wrote, adding, "Learning to trust and release. Thank you for riding with me babes."
