Ashley Darby opens up about honoring Roberta Flack
Ashley spoke with FOX 5 DC earlier this week, where she spoke about the performance and honoring Roberta Flack.
"To be able to highlight her, now, especially since she recently passed, in the place where she was discovered, I just feel so incredibly honored," she explained. "On the stage, there's a picture of her performing, and that's where I'm going to be, performing for the audience as well. So I just feel like I'm honoring her legacy, and it's just so cool that I can be a part of it in any way."
Will Ashley Darby be performing more in the future?
Yes, she will be. During her interview, Ashley revealed that there is more live performances from her in the future, after selling out this upcoming show. "There are many more things I'm working on, so if you missed this one, best believe there will be many more," she noted.
Ashley first showed off her singing talents during RHOP Season 3 when she debuted her original song, "Coffee and Love." The song, at the time, was dedicated to Ashley's then-husband, Michael Darby (the couple finalized their divorce in 2025).
Ashley spoke with BravoTV.com in 2018, where she opened up about the song's meaning and how it came together. "Creating 'Coffee and Love' meant so much to me," she said at the time. "My brother Zach [Smith] and I have always shared a love for music, and he's a talented performer, so this seemed like the perfect opportunity to show Michael his importance to me."
"The idea behind 'Coffee and Love' is remembering that both are best when they're hot!" she noted. "That's not to say they won't cool sometimes, but a dip in intensity serves as a reminder to turn up the heat a little bit. Everything given attention will continue to grow."
Ashley most recently debuted a brand new song during RHOP Season 9, Episode 8, at a GnA charity event. And, as seen in the video above.
