We photographed the absolutely stunning Ashley Roberts as she walked her dog Cooper along the Venice beaches in the California springtime. The Pussy Cat Doll Cutie recently dropped the bombshell that she would be leaving the group, following the announcement that creator Robin Antin was looking for fresh new faces. Ashley made the announcement on her Web site in a letter to her fans at the beginning of this month, leaving Nicole Scherzinger and Melody Thornton as the only remaining members. She wrote, “Yes, I have left the Pussycat Dolls. I love you all sooo much!!! I am so grateful to have the love and support of all of you. It was an amazing ride, and I learned so much! You all mean the world to me and I’m excited to take you all on a new adventure. An adventure full of creativity, inspiration, learning, growing and lots of fun.”
