Actress Sophia Bush Comes Out as Queer, Reveals Relationship with Soccer Player Ashlyn Harris a Year After Divorce

Hollywood star Sophia Bush has revealed her queer identity, a year after her marriage ended.

In a heartfelt article for Glamour, she shared her doubts before marrying Grant Hughes in 2022, despite throwing a lavish wedding.

However, the challenges of the following year, especially the heartbreak of fertility struggles, made her realize she had made a mistake.

Taking time away, she found solace in a theatrical role in London and grew closer to women experiencing similar relationship issues back in LA, including former soccer player Ashlyn Harris.

Bush described falling in love with Harris and acknowledged the importance of coming out in a time marked by aggressive attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community.

Reflecting on her sexuality, Bush embraced the term “queer,” expressing joy and a sense of belonging within the queer community.

She emphasized the significance of respecting the act of coming out amidst ongoing challenges faced by LGBTQIA+ individuals.

For Bush, the word “queer” captures the fluidity of her sexuality, bringing her genuine happiness. In a world where acceptance is vital, she finds comfort and strength in being true to herself and her identity.
