Love Is Blind’s Ashley Adionser Jokes Tyler Francis Just Has to ‘Donate’ His ‘Stuff’ to Have Kids
Love Is Blind season 7 star Ashley Adionser had a Freudian slip while discussing having children with fiancé Tyler Francis amid his paternity scandal.
“I just feel like, anything now, we can tackle, like, giving birth,” Ashley, 32, said during a romantic picnic date after skydiving. “It’s not [a fear] for you, but I have to give birth and push a baby out of my vagina. So that is very nerve-racking for me. Probably like the scariest thing I will ever do. It’s less risk for you. All you gotta do is shoot the club up. Literally. Donate your stuff and then… Help me through the process.”
The conversation – which took place during episode 11 – took an uncomfortable turn as Tyler, 35, was visibly upset by her use of the word “donate.”
“I’m not donating. We’re married,” Tyler said. Ashley, clearly unaware of her “wrong choice of words,” folded over in laughter at the irony, while the Virginia native simply shook his head in disapproval.
“All right, all you have to do is, like, you know, give your stuff,” Ashley clarified. “To your wife!”
“I’m not giving. We’re sharing,” Tyler added.
Ashley again clarified, “We are but I’m saying you don’t have to bear the child. That’s a big deal. So for me, I feel like that would be the scariest thing I ever do. But like, if you’re there to support me, I feel like we could do it.”
The couple were able to overcome the misstep just days before they were scheduled to be married. However, this was not the first issue they encountered in their journey as Tyler previously kept the fact that he fathered three children from his fiancée.
“I’m not sure this is, like, a resolution kind of conversation,” Ashley said after finding out about his offspring. “This is a big thing. I feel like we had such great communication and I don’t understand how two weeks before our wedding you drop this kind of bomb.”
According to Tyler, he was simply a “sperm donor” for a couple he knew who could not conceive.
“[They’re] not ‘your kids,’ but they are your kids,” Ashley continued. “And it’s with someone that you know. Now, that’s what? Three extra kids? Like, that’s wild. Who are these people? I feel like I should know that. ‘Here’s a picture. Here’s this, here’s that.’ I have nothing. You have yet to show me anything. ‘Here are the documents that say I’m uninvolved.’ I need to know everything.”
The mother of Tyler’s alleged children later spoke out, denying that the children – a 7-year-old boy and twin 5-year-old girls – were “sperm babies.”
While Tyler has yet to speak publicly about the situation, he later told E! News he had “no regrets” about his experience on the show.
“There’s maybe a couple conversations that could’ve been had at a certain time, who knows?” he said in an interview published on October 9. “I can’t sit back and wish that I could change something. I’m living in the present.”
