In it, the model shared photos of her donning a skintight black dress while holding a laptop.
Some snaps showed her posing in the sexy outfit, rocking minimal makeup, and her brunette locks in loose curls.
Others captured Aubrey focused on the computer screen, which she hinted in her caption was for a new project.
She wrote: “A #workfromhome aesthetic Back to the grind! Been building myself and my business from the ground up. It doesn’t happen over night, but boy is it worth the ride Getting excited to share with you guys a project I’ve been working on for some time now… Stay tuned #femaleentrepreneur #bosslady.”
Many fans suspected Aubrey’s new gig might align with her boyfriend, Ryan’s big career move.
“Vanna white!!” one person commented, mentioning the Wheel of Fortune star and Ryan’s soon-to-be co-host.
“Taking over in Wheel of Fortune?” another asked.
Ryan, 48, recently announced that he’s taking over for the game show’s longtime host, Pat Sajak, 76, when he retires in 2024.
Pat’s been leading the show since 1981, and Vanna, 66, joined him as co-host the following year.
VANNA’S FURY
It wouldn’t be farfetched to think that someone else could become the show’s new co-host, given recent claims that Vanna was “disappointed” with the execs’ decision to hire Ryan.
“She was disappointed that they didn’t give her more of a chance to take over Pat’s job, or that she wasn’t able to give her two cents on the replacement,” an insider claimed to the Daily Mail.
“She didn’t assume they would be making the announcement of his replacement so soon.”
The source said Vanna: “…wants to be with the show for as long as she wants to be on the show, on her terms. She believes she deserves it.
“It is a major uphill battle, especially when money is involved and she sees the writing on the wall that they think she is replaceable.”
They added that despite this, Vanna had: “nothing but respect for Ryan and will be happy to work with him, but it just shows a lack of respect in her eyes that they have for her.”
‘BEYOND HEARTBROKEN’
The insider also suggested that Vanna and Pat had experienced changes since the retirement of executive producer Harry Friedman, 76, in August 2019.
“It just wasn’t the same vibe… Nobody dislikes anyone, it is just different, and the leverage that Pat and Vanna once had is not there anymore, they explained.
“There will be lots of negotiations, but if she gets replaced and is not given a new contract, she will be beyond heartbroken.
“This has been her life, it would be just as powerful as a death if she doesn’t continue with the show.”
The source added: “Pat saw the writing on the wall and thought if there was ever a time to leave, now would be that time.”
