Sophia Bush denies engagement rumors with Ashlyn Harris following public display of affection in photos.

Sophia Bush has firmly put an end to the engagement rumors that surfaced after she and girlfriend Ashlyn Harris were seen getting cozy in photos during their trip to Paris. The actress, known for her role in “One Tree Hill,” took to her Instagram Story to address the speculation that their relationship had taken a serious turn.

Fans began speculating about a possible engagement when photos of Bush and Harris posing in front of the Eiffel Tower surfaced, with Bush appearing to hide her left hand inside Harris’ jacket. However, Bush quickly quashed the rumors by posting a selfie where she displayed her bare ring finger and captioned it with, “I hear the internet is being wild?” She jokingly explained the handsy moment by saying, “Wouldn’t you put your hands all up in her jacket if you could?? To be clear, you can’t because boundaries. But I’ll continue to do it for you because I’m just generous like that.”

The actress emphasized that she was just enjoying her time with Harris and shared her happiness with her followers. She reposted one of the photos from Paris, expressing her desire to squeeze her girlfriend and reflecting on how fortunate she feels to be in a happy and fulfilling relationship. This isn’t the first time Bush has openly spoken about her love for Harris, as she previously shared her feelings in an essay for Glamour where she talked about unexpectedly finding love after her divorce from Grant Hughes.

Bush’s relationship with Harris has been public for some time now, with the couple making their red carpet debut at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in coordinating black outfits from Harbison. Harris, a retired soccer player from the USWNT, has been going through a divorce of her own from fellow soccer player Ali Krieger. Despite the public scrutiny and accusations of infidelity that have surrounded their relationship, Bush and Harris have stood strong and continued to showcase their love for each other.

Recent reports revealed that Krieger secretly filed for divorce from Harris three months after Harris had initiated the process, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. The former couple shares two children, a 3-year-old daughter named Sloane and a 1-year-old son named Ocean, whom they welcomed through adoption.

Sophia Bush’s response to the engagement rumors showcases her sense of humor and her commitment to sharing her happiness with her fans. As she and Ashlyn Harris continue to navigate their relationship in the public eye, they remain focused on their love and support for each other. The couple’s journey is a testament to the strength of their bond and their ability to rise above challenges together.
