Ashley Zarlin


Ashley Zarlin is the daughter of Lauri Peterson (formerly Waring), one of The Real Housewives of Orange County. The two have starred on all three seasons of Bravo’s hit reality TV show and Zarlin especially, has come out as this season’s true breakout star.

Is it any coincidence that the January 22, 2008 Season Finale in which she shined as Waring’s Maid of Honor was the highest rated episode in series history?

According to Nielsen Media Research, Zarlin’s heartfelt wedding toast was viewed by 2.018 million total viewers and 1.488 million between the ages of 18 – 49.

“Season three of Housewives averaged 1.315 million total viewers and 997,000 among adults 18-49, representing 21 and 15 percent increases over season two, respectively. The season three finale saw a 37 percent increase among total viewers over season two's final episode,” writes Richard Chang of the OC Register.

We are elated to have Ms. Zarlin included as a Celebrity Guest Judge for 2008’s most exhilarating pageant ever.
