In fact, depending on how her tale develops in the upcoming phase, Ashley might become downright dangerous. We believe Ashley may be about to have an intervention, which will make “Ms. Abbott” snap at Ashley’s worried siblings. Nothing “Ms. Abbott” tries to set in motion can be stopped with certainty by intervention.

It might even result in the third alter-ego taking control, she might be the most terrifying of them all! Ashley’s other personality may determine that she has to improve while she still has the opportunity after that intervention.

It is possible that “Ms. Abbott” or the new alter is worried that she will miss her chance to pursue Tucker McCall (Trevor St. John). What occurs when Ashley isn’t feeling herself and someone comes in her way?

Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) could be a wise pick, given her complicated past with Ashley and her marriage to Peter Bergman’s Jack Abbott. In a recent interview with Soap Opera Digest, Susan Walters offered a possible indication. It can indicate that Diane and Ashley are having a disagreement.

Walters explained, “Ashley is not going to be won over by Diane anytime soon, which is kind of interesting because the storyline coming up requires Diane to have a lot of empathy and compassion for Ashley.”

Diane’s compassion and some bitterness against Ashley could stem from the possibility that Diane becomes a victim of Ashley’s mental illness. In any case, it’s not hard to picture a situation in which Ashley might accidentally knock Diane out. If Diane comes in the way when Ashley’s worst-case scenario is unfolding, Ashley’s alter could turn her into a victim.
