I think she might be mildly autistic or something. she doesn't seem all there. Definitely some sort of learning disability.

am I the only one who thought she acted really annoying/disrespectful to luke s after he lost out on the 50 grand to conor, when he came out the white room he was clearly devastated and all ashleigh could do was talk about how happy she was for conor, she actually had the nerve to ask him "why" he was upset like seriously you have to ask him why are you for real. Seriously this is meant to be her boyfriend who got screwed over by his supposed best mate and lost 50 grand, just seemed really oblivious and/or insensitive the way she was going on about how happy she was for conor.

Yes, she just lacks empathy and is self-absorbed. And quite often she just doesn't understand where people are coming from.
But I did feel sorry for her with the boos though.

That's an insult to autistic people, who are often highly intelligent. Ashleigh is no more autistic than I am the Pope's daughter, and is about as bright as the night sky. She's just an ill-educated, ill-spoken, spoilt little brat who is incapable of stringing a sentence together without using the 'f' word. She must have been dragged up to speak like that, it's disgusting. And despite her best efforts of trying to shake off the chav image in the house, she most definitely qualifies on that score too.

I think lostalex might be right she does come across as a bit slow. She doesn't appear to understand what's going on half the time. I thought her 'dumb' act was just a show but now I'm not so sure. i wouldn't worry about her too much as everything seems to just wash over her.
