Ashton Welsh

"Ashton...His name was Ashton"

- Welsh about his son

Ashton Welsh is the miscarried child of Salla and Kyle Welsh.

Pre-ASFS
Some time before the beginning of the novel, Salla became pregnant with Ashton, only to lose the child. This wrecked Salla and Kyle's relationship and, though they later had a daughter, their marriage was irreparably destroyed.

ASFS
Kyle mentions that he did, in fact, love his wife until they "lost [their] boy", to which Salla corrects him and says that "his name was Ashton"

Trivia

 * Ashton Welsh shares the same first name with Ashton Moore
