Everything about them was scrutinized, spun, served up for comic ofdder -- even the eating disorder Mary-kate was treated for two years ago. "That situation was more about how destructive the media can be to a person emotionally, to their identity, their public persona," Ashley says. "It's really sick." Their love lives have been a public parlor game; Ashley admits to having a newish boyfriend and delights in no one knowing who he is.

That guy is probably Scott Speedman. It's been said that her boyfriend is the guy she got her birthday pictures taken with and that he's 30 something years old "because that's how Ashley loves her guys: Older."

LOL at some of the quotes from Ashley in the longer article... for a minute I was wondering if it was a parody.

"This one is dope," Ashley says dreamily, running her fingers over a smoky-hued square of rabbit fur.

"This would make the sickest jacket," she says, wrapping the piece around her arm. "Mary-Kate is gonna shit herself when she sees this."

pulling her hair back in to a chaotic knot while whispering instructions to the seamstress like, "Increase the shoulder seam three-quarters" and "It has to be tight enough so that her crack doesn't show when she bends over."
