Ashley Wilson and Killian Grondin’s love story began 14 years ago, before they were introduced in season 4 of Netflix’s ‘The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On.’ They crossed paths while representing rival cheerleading teams. Years later, they reunited, and their rekindled connection blossomed into a committed relationship. They had initially moved to Miami, Florida, and then relocated to Houston, Texas, to be closer to Ashley’s family. Killian was ready for marriage, having initially received her father Wayne Wilson’s blessing, but a family altercation led her father to withdraw his approval. After 4 years together, she finally gave her partner an ultimatum.
Ashley Wilson and Killian Grondin Faced Tensions During Their Trial Marriages
After Ashley Wilson and Killian Grondin parted ways on the show, he revealed that his biggest concern was whether her family would accept him just the way he is. As the speed-dating phase progressed, she found herself drawn to Blake Robertson, while her ex-partner felt most connected to Hayley Dinaé. Hence, during the Choice, Blake and Ashley decided to enter into a trial marriage together, just as Killian and Hayley did. Tensions soon resurfaced when Killian continued to communicate with his ex-girlfriend via text and showed the messages to his trial marriage partner. Ashley felt his behavior was projecting his insecurities, and all four finally met and decided to block each other to fully embrace the experience.
The situation became uncomfortable again when Ashley was taken aback by a comment Hayley claimed Killian had made, suggesting he would become intimate with his trial marriage partner if she wasn’t modest, given his ex-girlfriend’s behavior. When his ex-partner confronted him, he denied making the alleged remark. After Ashley and Killian reunited, she noted that she saw growth in him. Following their meeting with her parents, her partner learned that Wayne Wilson’s reservations stemmed from his desire to see Killian mature and prove he could protect his daughter.
However, Killian left the conversation dissatisfied because he felt that Ashley’s father focused on his shortcomings rather than his strengths. As the experiment neared its conclusion, her partner made another effort by meeting her parents alone. Killian told Wayne during the meeting that he was willing to ask for his blessing again and was striving to become the partner his girlfriend deserved. However, her father remained cautious, emphasizing that change was demonstrated through consistent actions. On the day of the final decision, Killian expressed that his fear of living the rest of his life without Ashley overrode every other obstacle they had faced. Similarly, she felt that both of them had grown emotionally through the experience.
Ashley and Killian Are No Longer Engaged, But They Are Keeping Details of Their Current Bond Private
Killian eventually proposed to Ashley with a beautiful ring, which she gladly accepted. Unfortunately, she disclosed during the reunion that they called off their engagement two months after leaving the show. Ashley stated that after returning to the real world, Killian went back to his old ways within a week and allegedly treated her badly. She said that in one instance, he broke her phone, and her parents had to pick her up. On the other hand, Killian stated that Ashley was always bringing up instances from his trial marriage with Hayley. However, he acknowledged that he had put her through dire situations and apologized, saying, “I have put you through s**t. It’s genuine, and I apologize.”
It is worth noting that Ashley and Killian currently follow each other on Instagram. In June 2025, he tore his Achilles tendons in both his legs and underwent surgery. During that time, he shared a video thanking her for taking care of him. In July 2026, he shared another video from the same time, expressing his gratitude for how she supported him during his rehabilitation. He also shared a romantic clip of them together from a road trip, mentioning, “When life feels like a movie.” Although Ashley has not shared any recent pictures or videos of them together, there is a possibility that she and Killian may have decided to remain in touch. However, they haven’t publicly interacted on social media. From what we can tell, the couple appears to still care for one another.
