Yes!!!!!  I was just about to remind everyone of this, too!!!!
This whole mess is Ashley's fault (and Victor's, too).  If Ashley
had not had an affair with Victor (or he with her), this never
would have happened!  Yet Ashley adopts this "holier than thou"
attitude with Nikkie, who is the LEAST guilty one in the bunch!
Where does she get off telling Nikki to stay married to Jack
because "he loves her so much"?  Where was Ashley when Victor
wanted to divorce Nikki, a woman who "loved him so much"!
I didn't hear her telling Victor to go back to his wife! (The abortion
doesn't count - that was only after she found out about Nikki's
illness).
 
Ashley is a spoiled rich kid - if things don't go her way, she
finds blame with everyone else.  And she can't stand to see anyone
else happy if she's not happy.  That's why she tried to convince
Nikki to stay away from Victor - out of spite and bitterness.  Maybe
if Ashley hadn't been such a willing participant in her affair with
Victor, Nikki and Victor would still be married.  Ash has no one
to blame for Jack's accident but herself (and Victor).

No way!  I agree 100%!  .................. Go Away, Ashley!!!!!
