By Photography by In 2023 actor Sophia Bush made headlines when she filed for divorce one year after a storybook wedding.
By the fall it was public knowledge that she was in a new relationship.
With a woman.
The internet seemed to be foaming at the digital mouth for a scandal, but to those who knew her, it was clear she’d never been more herself.
Here, in her own words, Bush speaks to the power of finally learning to listen to her intuition.In April of 2022 I was close to calling off my wedding.
Instead of running away, I doubled down on being a model wife.
my now ex-husband posted a lovely tribute to our first anniversary on Instagram.
When I saw it, I felt the blood drain from my face.
Fans and friends were telling me how exciting this milestone was and how happy I looked.
I felt nothing.
Things hadn’t been easy at home, but everyone says marriage is hard, right? As the day wore on, I felt mounting pressure from strangers online waiting for me to post something—what a strange part of public life to have to navigate—so I sat myself down and chose a picture..

.It was a black-and-white photograph of us running away from the camera.
Yes, I see the bittersweet irony now.
I wrote a really nice story about the people in that picture.
Except it was just that: a story.
I typed something about how incredibly happy I was and tried to drown out the familiar voice in my head.
Make it look easy.
Make it look perfect.
If your smile is shiny enough, maybe no one will notice that up close all of your teeth are broken.
But sometimes broken is just broken.I hit post.
