MailOnline have contacted Ashley's reps for comment.
Last year Ashley gushed to MailOnline that she was in a 'happy place' and said: 'It's really nice to be in a relationship that's kind and thoughtful and supportive and we have fun'.
She explained that while online dating works for a lot of people she and George met through mutual friends and their relationship 'came about naturally'.
'It was an unexpected thing, we met, and I was having a good time and living my best life, enjoying it and I was like "this is someone quite special" - I'm in a happy place'.
Earlier this month the couple looked happier than ever as they were spotted on a date night at swanky London restaurant Sexy Fish.
She flashed a huge smile as she sweetly held hands with George as they strolled together.
Artist George has previously collaborated with boxer Francis Ngannou for his fight against Tyson Fury, decorating the Cameroonian's boots with his own designs and has created elaborate pieces for the likes of celebrity clients Drake and Anthony Joshua.

The singer recently gave an insight into her love life and revealed why she prefers dating Brits over American men.
In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Ashley said she feels like an 'adopted Brit' after moving to London from the US in 2012 after her appearance on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!.
She admitted she could never imagine dating a man from the US now because they're 'overwhelming'.
She said: 'Yes, George is British. It's funny because I have been here so long that when I go back to the States, I'm much more aware of the differences…
'American men are, I feel bad saying this, but they're overwhelming, they are too much. I'm like, you need to calm down.
'I think because I grew up in that culture, I didn't necessarily think anything different but now I've lived here for so long and I've dated in the past, many years ago, European men...
'But I don't even imagine myself dating an American guy now. They have a different approach. Even in places like Vegas it's all around you that kind of testosterone.'
Ashley, who's originally from Phoenix, Arizona, says she is thankful to have settled down in Britain and after The Pussycat Dolls went their separate ways in 2010.

George, who is 17 years Ashley's junior, is Ashley's first serious partner since her split from Strictly Come Dancing professional Giovanni Pernice in 2020 (pictured in April 2019)
At the beginning of their relationship a source told MailOnline: 'Ashley and George are smitten with each other.
'They have chosen to keep their relationship private for now but gradually have started sharing snippets from their life together on social media.
'George is extremely successful in his own right, creating artwork for massive names and establishing himself in his craft from a young age.
'Ashley isn't at all bothered about their age difference... they have similar interests, and he has inspired her creatively, she hasn't felt this way in a long time.'
Ashley's last public relationship was with Strictly professional Giovanni, 33, who is nine years her junior.
Ashley's last public relationship was with Strictly professional Giovanni, 34, who is nine years her junior.
The couple were together for over a year before splitting in 2020.
They met when Ashley starred on the BBC series in 2018, competing with Pasha Kovalev in the competition and finishing as a finalist.
It was speculated in 2012 after her stint in the I'm A Celeb jungle that Ashley shared a brief fling with host Declan Donnelly, though the pair never publicly confirmed.

Fans all say the same thing ahead of Tottenham's Super Cup clash after PSG thrash Inter Milan in Champions League final
Fans have mocked Tottenham by claiming they will be destroyed by Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup after the Parisians paraded to Champions League glory. A remarkable and relentless display in Munich saw PSG thrash Inter Milan 5-0 to claim the club's first ever Champions League title. They are just the second ever French club to become European champions, behind Marseille in 1993, while Luis Enrique joins Pep Guardiola as the only managers in history to have won a treble with two different teams. The French side will face Spurs in the UEFA Super Cup, with the north Londoners hoping to get their hands on another trophy - having ended their 17-year drought last week. The game will take place at Udinese's Stadio Friuli on August 13, a mere two days before the start of the Premier League season. While Ange Postecoglou 's men beat Manchester United in the Europa League final, claiming their first European trophy in 43 years, fans took to social media to express certainty that they will be hammered by Enrique's young side. One wrote: 'I'm not sure Spurs fans should watch this. It could be the most humiliating defeat in their history.' Another added: 'If the game tonight was 5-0. God help Spurs.' One account joked: 'Spurs should forfeit to only lose 3-0.' 'The first 30-0 incoming,' another said. Facing PSG is a scary prospect and the Parisians certainly know how to get a result against Premier League clubs, having beaten Liverpool, Aston Villa and Arsenal en route to the final. Achraf Hakimi opened the scoring at the Allianz Arena before a Desire Doue brace, with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and 19-year-old Senny Mayulu firing in second-half goals as PSG recorded the biggest ever win in a Champions League final. Fans took to X to mock Spurs just moments after PSG wrapped up the Champions League 'If the game tonight was 5-0, God help Spurs,' one fan wrote after PSG's win on Saturday Enrique became just the sixth manager to win it with two clubs, having triumphed in 2015 with Barcelona. Meanwhile, Real Madrid are the current holders of the Super Cup, beating Atalanta 2-0 last year. Manchester City lifted the trophy two seasons ago, while PSG could become the first ever French side to win it.

UK faces choice next week between health and other spending, IFS think tank warns
LONDON, June 1 (Reuters) - British finance minister Rachel Reeves' key decision in next week's multi-year spending review will be how much to spend on healthcare versus other public services, the Institute for Fiscal Studies think tank said on Sunday. Reeves is due to set out day-to-day spending limits for other government departments on June 11 which will run through to the end of March 2029 - almost until the end of the Labour government's expected term in office. Britain has held periodic government spending reviews since 1998, but this is the first since 2015 to cover multiple years, other than one in 2021 focused on the COVID pandemic. The non-partisan IFS said this spending review could prove to be "one of the most significant domestic policy events" for the current Labour government. Prime Minister Keir Starmer's announcement in February that defence spending would reach 2.5% of national income by 2027 had already used the room for further growth in public investment created in Reeves' October budget, it said. "Simultaneously prioritising additional investments in public services, net zero and growth-friendly areas ... will be impossible," said Bee Boileau, a research economist at the IFS. Non-investment public spending is intended to rise by 1.2% a year on top of inflation between 2026-27 and 2028-29, according to budget plans which Reeves set out in October - half the pace of spending growth in the current and previous financial year. The IFS sees no scope for this to be topped up, as Reeves' budget rules leave almost no room for extra borrowing and tax rises are now limited to her annual budget statement. This forces Reeves and Starmer to choose between the demands of the public healthcare system - plagued by long waiting times and a slump in productivity since the COVID-19 pandemic - and other stretched areas. In past spending reviews, annual health care spending has typically risen 2 percentage points faster than total spending. If that happened this time - equivalent to an annual increase of 3.4% - spending in other departments would have to fall by 1% a year in real terms, the IFS forecast. Raising healthcare spending at roughly the same pace as other areas - a 1.2% rise - would only just keep pace with an ageing population and not allow any reversal of recent years' deterioration in service quality, the IFS said. Spending cuts could be achieved by scaling back services provided by the state, reducing public-sector employment or real-terms cuts in public-sector pay, it added. But it warned the government needed to be specific about how it planned to make cuts, or risk financial markets losing confidence in its ability to keep borrowing under control. The review does not cover spending on pensions or other benefits, which the government is tackling separately.

Disposable vapes ban begins but will teens quit?
The ban on the sale of single-use disposable vapes will come into force on Sunday across the UK, aimed at protecting children's health and the environment. It means shops and supermarkets will no longer be able to stock them - but they can still sell rechargeable or refillable devices. Disposable vapes have been cited as a key driver in the rise in youth vaping, while every year five million vapes are thrown predict it will have a significant impact but health experts say further regulation is needed to tackle youth vaping. Retailers in England and Wales breaching the ban face a £200 fine for the first offence with potentially unlimited fines or jail for those who repeatedly ban was first announced for England and Wales by the previous Conservative government but the law was not enacted before last summer's general then pushed ahead with it. Scotland and Northern Ireland have introduced their own bans, timed to coincide with the one in England and Wales. Less harmful Vape use has risen rapidly over the last decade with 9% of the British public now buying and using figures suggest about one in four vapers use the disposable versions, although that proportion has fallen since the ban was while it is illegal to sell vapes to anyone under 18, disposable vapes, often sold in smaller, more colourful packaging than refillable ones, have been cited as an important factor in the rise of youth one in seven 18 to 24-year-olds vape but have never is substantially less harmful than smoking but it has not been around for long enough for its long-term risks to be known, according to the NHS. The environmental impact is considerable. Single-use vapes are difficult to recycle and typically end up in landfill where their batteries can leak harmful chemicals like battery acid, lithium, and mercury into the environment, the government thrown into household waste also cause hundreds of fires in bin lorries and waste-processing centres every Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs estimates almost five million single-use vapes were either littered or thrown into general waste each week last minister Mary Creagh said: "For too long, single-use vapes have blighted our streets as litter and hooked our children on nicotine. That ends today."The government calls time on these nasty devices."But Action on Smoking and Health chief executive Hazel Cheeseman questioned what impact the ban would have, pointing out new refillable vape kits were coming on to the market that look and cost similar to the single-use said it would not be until the Tobacco and Vapes Bill, which includes powers to regulate marketing, branding and advertising, came into power that the issue of youth vaping could be truly tackled."Their appeal is driven by bright colours, wide availability and cheap prices," she said."The new regulations will hopefully help to address the environmental impact, but government will need further regulations to address the appeal of products to teenagers."She said this was very much a balancing act as vapes were an important tool to help people quit."Vaping is very much less harmful than smoking and is the most popular aid to quitting in the UK," she added. John Dunne, of the UK Vaping Industry Association, said bans were "not the answer".He said he was concerned that a black market in single-use vapes could develop and some people may be tempted to return to smoking cigarettes."Disposables have played a huge role in reducing smoking levels amongst adults to record low levels. It's why we are seeing stockpiling in the lead up to the ban," he Butler, executive director of Material Focus, an independent not-for-profit organisation, said that he was still concerned that vapes are still difficult to recycle and reuse. He said customers and businesses should demand sustainable options. "Given the rampant binning and littering that we already see, will we see any behaviour change? Only if producers, importers and retailers step up and meet their long existing legal obligations to provide and pay for takeback and recycling," he said.
