See what she said inside…

“Once cancer physically left my body, I made it my mission to not let it affect my life,” Ashley told the mag. “I didn’t want it to define me. People were so worried about me, and I became the person that was like, ‘I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. I am going to go after what I want and just do it.’”

On Lily as her on and off-screen best friend, Ashley says, “To be able to walk through this chapter of my life with a best friend has been so meaningful. What you see on screen between Mindy and Emily is very reflective of Lily and I meeting each other as grown women and being like, ‘Oh my God, it was like part of my soul was missing, and now I’ve found it.’”
