Ashlyn Harris’ life has always remained captivating beyond her post-retirement days. While her achievements as a World Cup champion have earned her widespread acclaim, it’s her off-field romance with actress Sophia Bush that often steals the headlines. But not many are aware of the story of how they met each other and how long they have been dating each other. 

The story of how Ashlyn Harris and Sophia Bush kindled romance

Ashlyn Harris and Sophia Bush found each other with broken hearts. While Harris announced separation from her nearly decade-long relationship and one-year marriage with fellow USWNT teammate Ali Krieger, Bush was also filing for divorce just 13 months after tying the knot with her husband Grant Hughes in 2022. Although Harris and Bush started dating just months after their respective breakups, they had crossed paths in 2019. 

Bush bonded with Harris following their attendance at a Cannes event in the summer of 2023, where they, along with a group of women, formed a support circle for those navigating relationship challenges. Even though the actress “didn’t expect to find love in this support system,” her feelings for the former USWNT star developed slowly and simultaneously blossomed overnight.

Following “countless sessions of therapy” and encouragement from friends, Bush took the leap and invited Harris to spend time together outside of their platonic bond. What began as a close friendship evolved into a deeper romantic relationship, marked by their inaugural dinner date, signifying a significant turning point in their connection. While they had previously publicly denied announcing their relationship, the two are now openly dating each other.

As we know Ashlyn Harris dated just Ali Kreiger and now Sophia Bush, what is the dating history of the “Good Sam” star and producer? 

Who did Sophia Bush date before Ashlyn Harris? 

Before Ashlyn Harris came into the picture, Sophia Bush was married to Grant Hughes. They began their relationship in 2020 and tied the knot in June 2022, marking two years together. However, their marriage lasted only until August 2023, when Bush filed for divorce. Interestingly, before Hughes, there were many revered names that Bush had been involved with. 

Prior to her relationship with Hughes, Bush’s romantic history included a marriage to her ‘One Tree Hill’ co-star, Chad Michael Murray, in April 2005. Following their divorce the following year, she dated other co-stars from the same show, James Lafferty and Austin Nichols, before embarking on a romance with former Chicago P.D. co-star, Jesse Lee Soffer.

However, it seems that she has found her happiness with Ashlyn Harris, opting for an unconventional path as the two lovebirds cherish their time together.
