A one-vehicle traffic accident claimed the life of 25-year-old Ashley Perrin of Ponchatoula Tuesday afternoon.

Perrin, of 525 Kathleen St., died on the Interstate 55 Southeast Service Road in Ponchatoula. Police Lt. Raymond Mauterer said the accident happened about 2:30 p.m.

She was alone in a mini van when it hit the guard rail while traveling north on the service road. The roadway showed no skid marks, Mauterer said, and the cause of the accident is unknown at this time.

She was ejected from the vehicle and was dead at the scene, Mauterer said.

Drugs or alcohol are not suspected, he said.

Perrin is the daughter of Marguerite Perrin, who gained national recognition for her role in the Fox television series “Trading Spouses.”

Although we are guilty of poking fun at The God Warrior (which we believe she didn’t mind judging by the way she hammed it up on additional talk show appearances), nonetheless… a parent should NEVER have to bury a child.  The staff here at DYWN are truly saddened to hear the news of Ashley’s passing.  Ashley seemed like a smart and caring woman on the TV show.  We truly wish the Perrin family our condolences in their time of grief.

Would any of you want her championing your cause?

See, what I want to know is, what the hell kind of a guy marries a woman like that?

PS…Dang! I just watched the Jay Leno clip! It took me a minute to realize that that was Roseanne Barr sitting next to her on the couch! Wow, Jay actually managed to find the one other woman on the planet who’s more f****d up than Marguerite Perrin! Even Roseanne seems to be astonished that there actually is a woman out there who’s more of a head case than she is!
