The most notable and widely discussed rumor involves her alleged romantic involvement with Hollywood actor Michael B. Jordan.

One particular event occurred at Seth MacFarlane’s Christmas party in November 2017, at which Ashlyn was in a black dress, and was photographed sitting on Michael B. Jordan’s lap. The confirmation of their relationship followed, but it was short-lived, leading to their breakup. The aftermath of this relationship garnered significant media attention, propelling her to stardom.
Controversy arose stemming from racial criticism. Some individuals expressed disapproval, specifically considering Michael B. Jordan’s prominent role in the movie “Black Panther”, a film celebrated for its representation of the African race. The criticism centered around the idea that Jordan, being associated with such a culturally significant movie, should be cautious about dating outside his race. This controversy led to threats of boycotting the “Black Panther” movie, creating a tumultuous period for both individuals involved.
