Earlier on Tuesday afternoon, news surfaced that actress Sophia Bush is in a relationship with Ashlyn Harris, the goalkeeper for the United States Women’s National Team.
The news quickly went viral on social media, drawing attention due to the curious timing. Both Bush and Harris have recently filed for divorce from their respective partners in the past two months.
According to TMZ, “Sources close to the couple confirm that the One Tree Hill actress and Ashlyn are officially an item. The timing appears abrupt, as Harris only filed for divorce from her wife and fellow USWNT star Ali Krieger less than a month ago.”
Fans have mixed feelings about this news. Some express sympathy for Krieger and her two children, with one person declaring, “Ali Krieger, I will defend you with my LIFE.”
Others are puzzled by the sequence of events. One individual remarked, “Up until June, she was consistently talking about the love of her life, Grant, and how wonderful a man he was, and the perfect marriage they had, etc. Just one month later, she decides to divorce her husband and is now dating a woman!? Wait, WHAT!?”
Another pointed out, “She had an elaborate dream wedding just 15 months ago, complete with a Vogue spread.”
It’s advisable to await further information before passing judgment, but in the age of social media, there’s always an outlet for those who wish to express their opinions.
