After meeting on the set of Her Smell, Ashley and Cara sparked dating rumours when they were photographed kissing at Heathrow airport in London. But it wasn't until June 2019 that Cara finally confirmed their relationship in honour of their first anniversary. She also briefly opened up about their private relationship in an interview with Marie Claire. "We weren't looking for it," Cara said, referencing the first time she and Ashley met. "It was really just very authentic and natural." However, by April 2020, the couple broke up.
