Ruled By Rivalry
THE NEW YORK GOSS
When you hear the name Ashwood, you think luxury. What started as designer fashion has, over the years, grown into an empire that’s almost impossible to keep track of.
But we don’t have to tell you about the hotels, the champagne, the galas, or the dozen industries that make Hunter Ashwood one of the wealthiest men alive. Only that the brand’s evergreen share prices are dropping—and fast.
In a recently resurfaced video, Elliot Ashwood, youngest of the Ashwood boys, is seen incoherently babbling about their designs: “I honestly wouldn’t touch anything coming out of Adeline Ashwood with a ten-foot pole.”
Pair that with the underage drinking on display, the beautiful brunette with her head on his lap, and the fact that he took a shot at the Ashwood legacy college as well—“That’s why I’m [.
. .] not in Bumfuck Nowhere, Connecticut.
I didn’t want to go to Yale because fuck Ashwood.
Fuck everything we’ve built.”—and you can see why investors aren’t exactly thrilled.
While we care less about stock prices, market share, and whatever else our finance friends at THE NEW YORK GROSS love to obsess over, we can’t help but wonder what the fallout from such behavior will be.
Elliot has since issued a formal apology (damage control, anyone?), but the numbers haven’t bounced back just yet.
And maybe that’s why a source close to the family told THE NEW YORK GOSS, in an exclusive, that the Ashwood heir has now been made to take an unpaid internship at Adeline Ashwood.
Not just to win back investor trust, but to show the public he’s a changed man.
We certainly want to believe it! But will his good looks and charming smile work as well on Wall Street as they do on social media? That remains to be seen. One thing we are sure of?
The public is going to love watching the smug heir fall from grace—straight into the life of an unpaid intern.
