OHMYGOSSIP — Sophia Bush feels “inspired” by Hilarie Burton and Bethany Joy Lenz.
The trio became close friends when they starred as Brooke Davis, Peyton Sawyer and Haley James Scott respectively in the 2000s teen drama ‘One Tree Hill’, and have maintained “really deep and trusted connections” with each other ever since.
And now, Sophia has said their friendships have “deepened even more” over time, as she admitted she “really cherishes” having Hilarie and Bethany in her life.
She gushed: “We’ve known each other for almost two decades now. Our friendships have changed immeasurably. We’ve been through so many stages of life together. But I think something that we really cherish – Hilarie and I were talking about this not too long ago – is just having, interestingly enough, as we’ve all gotten older, having our friendships deepen even more.
“We all got to go through this wild ride together and it’s a thing that’s ours. No one else can really share it with us in the way that we can. It’s such a special thing to leave a journey like that and maintain really deep and trusted connections and we all are able to support each other and inspire each other and it’s something I just really cherish.”
Since the show wrapped in 2012, the cast have reunited several times, including when they all get together for Hilarie’s annual Halloween party, which Sophia said is always the highlight of her year.
She added: “Hilarie throws the best Halloween party ever. Like, that will just stand in the record books. She loves Halloween more than anyone I know. And those were always kind of our best times.”
And Sophia also confessed many of the cast – which also included the likes of Chad Michael Murray, Joe Manganiello, and James Lafferty – are now in a group chat, where they keep in touch with one another no matter where they are in the world.
Speaking to Us Weekly magazine, she said: “It’s interesting when you have to move somewhere for a show because you’re together 10 months a year, but the holidays are the only time you really get to go home and see your family. So, generally, we’re all apart for the holidays, but now it’s obviously so sweet no matter where we are – east coast, west coast or anywhere in-between – our cast is kind of all over the place. But we have a big group thread, and everyone is sending around pictures of their dogs and their kids. It’s always really nice to have that touch point no matter where we’re at.”
