The 40-year-old actress narrated how she once even skipped an entire week of school as a child while her mom, country music star Naomi Judd, was away touring. "I didn't have a ride and I'd gotten ashamed of calling friends," she stated. "I had my first childhood depression at eight - severe, intense, hole-in-the-soul loneliness. No one noticed," she added.
Growing up, Ashley has learnt to focus on the needs of others, noticeably in her role as a Global Ambassador for YouthAIDS. "It's unmistakable to me that it's a holy and righteous thing to be with the poor," she said. "Ideally, I'm going to do human rights work the rest of my life," she added.
