Ashley Earle — the former escort known as Ashley Dupré, infamous for her encounter with then-Gov. Eliot Spitzer — is becoming a stay-at-home mom.
In 2008, the then-23-year-old earned notoriety for her liaison with Spitzer, which ended his political career and later led to his divorce from wife Silda.
In 2012, Ashley started a family with asphalt tycoon Thomas “TJ” Earle and opened Femme by Ashley, a lingerie and swimwear shop, in Red Bank, NJ.
But the ex-call girl posted Wednesday on social media that she was closing the store to spend more time with her kids: “We have created a beautiful brand and a first-class shopping experience that I will be forever proud of. But as my children get older I realize that I can always reopen Femme, but I will not get another chance to raise and enjoy my children. So I have made the difficult decision to close Femme and focus my time on Izabel and Penelope.”
She thanked her staff, saying, “I love them and we will be together forever.”
Earle told Page Six Wednesday, “Running femme was an amazing experience. I learned a lot and built a brand that I am very proud of. I give a lot of credit to working moms. As any working mom knows, wearing two hats is incredibly hard. I look forward to putting one away for a while and focus on being a mom, a step mom and a wife.”
