rich 1.0 Ashley Ridgway is either a participant in a staged hoax or a real woman whose husband turned the worst week of her life into a media tour. Either way, a psychotherapist has something to say about the dynamic she’s living in. Jesse Ridgway has spent twenty years fabricating events and presenting them as real — staged family violence that generated a billion views and over a thousand 911 calls, a creator platform that reportedly collected a million users before being sold as an NFT. And now a pregnancy announcement that follows the exact same pattern as everything he’s ever done. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines what Jesse Ridgway’s record looks like through a clinical framework called Munchausen by Internet — a pattern where individuals fabricate crises online to collect attention and sympathy. She looks at the escalation, the role Ashley is playing in this, and what it tells you about a person that a Down syndrome baby is something they’d reach for as a prop — real or fabricated.
