This is getting interesting! While Ben Higgins recently shot down dating rumors between him and Ashley Iaconetti – after the two were spotted at a concert together just days following his split from his fiancée Lauren Bushnell –a source exclusively told OK! that the Bachelor alums are actually on the fast track to becoming more than friends!
“No one would be surprised” if their friendship blossoms into something more, the insider confessed. “Ashley is much more laid-back than Lauren.” (Cue Biz Markie’s “Just A Friend”)
Ashley and Ben will definitely be spending a lot of time together (leaving a lot of space for their “friendship” to grow) as they recently revealed that they’re working on a new podcast, “Almost Famous,” together.
