The Bold and the Beautiful Star Ashley Jones Takes On Exciting New Role

She’s been absent for a bit on The Bold and the Beautiful, but Ashley Jones has been staying busy. She’s flexing her creative muscles in a new way and is now sharing her new venture.

Ashley Jones: All About Being A Mom

According to the actress’s Instagram account, the young mom has been giving traveling tips to Parenting magazine. She kept her new endeavor a secret for a bit of time but is now making it public.

“I didn’t post this when it first came out (and didn’t post the other columns, either), because I didn’t feel like my life reeked ‘expert,” Jones shares. “Not the kind of expert in order to have tips in @parenting magazine. Well, that ends now.

“I’m doing my best to be an amazing mom that is forging a better path for my son and making a ton of sacrifices to do it. And I am SO proud to have fun tidbits of info to share I’ve picked up along the way. I’m leaving the small-minded me behind in 2019 with the people I allowed to shame me into feeling that way.

“I LOVE the community forming here and on my blog and I LOVE watching us support each other. So… yeah— I’m super happy that @parenting thinks I have worthy things to share.” Jones encourages her followers to share their stories with her about something they feel should be applauded.

Jones first came onto the soap scene over 20 years ago as Megan Dennison on The Young and the Restless. She auditioned for — but did not win — the part of Billie Reed on Days of our Lives when it was being recast.

She then was hired to play Bridget on BB. After taking a break from the half-hour soap, she took on the part of Parker on General Hospital. The Bold and the Beautiful airs weekdays on CBS. Check local listings for air times.
