"If I've insulted anyone or hurt anybody or was mean to anybody for no reason that I apologize," Ashley said in a series of video clips on her Instagram Story on Saturday, according to In Touch Weekly.
"I've just been going through a lot and I know it's not an excuse to act the way that I've acted or be mean. I apologized to Nicole."

A day earlier, Nicole, 24, appeared to slam Ashley in the comments section of 90 Day Fiance blogger John Yates' Instagram post about the latest scandal in which Ashley is threatening to file for divorce from husband Jay Smith after accusing him of inappropriate behavior.

"They aren't very good at keeping secrets before the season starts," Nicole reportedly wrote, alongside an emoticon of a face rolling its eyes.
Ashley, 31, then fired back at Nicole and certainly didn't go easy on her co-star.
"Maybe if your husband was around you would get sick of his sh-t and post out of frustration," Ashley replied, according to In Touch.
Ashley was referring to Azan Tefou and the fact he and Nicole have cancelled wedding plans numerous times, leaving Azan overseas and 90 Day Fiance fans skeptical of his intentions for his relationship with Nicole.
"This has nothing to do with the season that's about to air. You are the laughing joke of TLC, everyone knows he doesn't want you and that's why he keeps getting denied to come here. So don't even go there," Ashley added.

The women, however, seemed to realize their argument was petty, and so they reportedly went on to delete their original comments and apologize to each other.

Nicole let the world know she was not throwing shade at Ashley and wishes her marriage to Jay well, and then Ashley apologized on social media for "being mean" when it wasn't called for, In Touch reported.
However, Ashley still faced backlash and criticism from fans who thought Nicole deserved more than a simple apology for how Ashley had treated her in public.
Ashley therefore expressed her apologies via Instagram on Saturday.

After apologizing for insulting and offending people -- especially Nicole -- Ashley reportedly continued in her video clips, "It's been a really rough week and I'm really sorry for anybody that I've hurt and offended."
"It's really not who I am and I don't know why I stooped to that level to act like that," Ashley added.
The upcoming star of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? then concluded, "So sorry to my fans, sorry to my haters and sorry to my cast members. That's all I can really say. I'm sure you guys hate me and that's fine because I deserve it."
Following her video apology, Ashley released another statement because she had more to say, according to the magazine.
"Guys I'm trying. I'm human. I wish I could say what's going on but I can't. When you all see the truth you may sympathize with me a little more. Please watch the show," Ashley wrote.

"In no way were my actions excusable but I hope it better explains why I acted like an idiot. My actions yesterday were wrong. I don't like to go after cast as we are all in the same boat. I didn't mean to hurt @alwayssnicole and I feel terrible for the mean things I said."

Ashley reportedly insisted she immediately direct messaged Nicole on Instagram trying to fix the situation.
"She was not only kind enough to excepts my apology but she also helps me get through a devastating time," Ashley revealed.
"I lashed out because I'm so hurt and unhappy with my own life. Not because anything Nicole did."
"The pain I'm feeling is inconsolable and I just snapped on the wrong person over a comment," Ashley reportedly continued. "It was me and my own insecurities, anger and pain that caused it. Once again I'm sorry."
Ashley has accused Jay of being a "disgusting cheating ass" and using her car and money to go to a strip club. She has recently expressed on more than one occasion how her marriage is over and she hopes Jay will be deported back to his native country of Jamaica.
"On particularly rough days when I'm sure I can't possibly endure," Ashley reportedly wrote, "I like to remind myself that my track record for getting through bad days so far, is 100 percent and that's pretty good."
