The outing comes after Ashley revealed she thought she was going into labour on Boxing Day as she shared a candid video on her Instagram Stories on Monday.
The TV star admitted she had all her bags ready to take to hospital as she was convinced that she was about to give birth – but her baby boy wasn’t ready for his big arrival.
She explained she has been feeling very impatient for the arrival of her first child and is finding it hard to ‘think about anything else’ as her due date is just days away.

The expectant mother also described waiting for her bundle of joy as a ‘weird’ time as she admitted that she is ‘so sure’ that she is going into labour ‘every day’.
Taking to Instagram, she explained: ‘I feel like this is obviously such a weird time of year anyway like in “normal life” between Christmas and New Year, but obviously with 2020 it’s even weirder and then waiting for the baby to come is even weirder!
‘Like I just feel like I’m in this groundhog day, weird place. And look we’ve got all the bags by the door here, and then we’ve got like the car seat and the pillow here cos we were so sure it was happening on Boxing Day.

‘So every day we are like “it’s going to be today” and it’s not! So I’m probably being quite quiet on here but I’m just in this weird like mental place of waiting. It’s just hard to think about anything else really.’
Ashley revealed that at around 9pm on Boxing Day she thought she was going into labour, so she put all her bags and a car seat by their front door.
She said that she and Tommy went to bed hoping to get some rest, before explaining that her son was not ‘quite ready to make his big arrival’ as she is still left waiting.
False alarm: Ashley revealed she thought she was going into labour on Boxing Day as she shared a candid video on her Instagram stories on Monday
The impatient star excitedly added that she is ‘so ready’ to welcome her baby boy into the world following her latest labour false alarm.
Ashley also revealed that she does not have a birth plan as the thought of planning for something you’ve ‘never done’ or could ‘go wrong’ ‘blows’ her mind.
The mother-to-be also admitted that she hasn’t read any of the parenting books that she bought during her pregnancy.
She revealed that she does not think reading about ‘someone else’s experience’ would help her ‘feel prepared’ for her own ‘unique’ journey.
But she was quick to add that her boyfriend Tommy did read a few of the informative books and found them ’empowering’.
But Ashley did detail an array of activities that she has done to prepare for motherhood, including a day’s antenatal class, a hypnobirthing class and booking a lactation consultant.
Ashley had her first labour false alarm at the beginning of December, describing it as like someone was ‘punching my vagina from the inside’.
This month, she also celebrated her year anniversary with her boyfriend, quipping that she ‘didn’t like men too much’ when they met due to bad dating experiences.
But she credited her ‘independence’ for helping her finally form a toxic-free romance with her beau.
