Sophia Bush is reportedly dating a former USWNT star on the back of her split from Grant Hughes.
According to TMZ, the actress has gotten into a relationship with Ashlyn Harris, a former goalkeeper who represented the U.S. for 14 years and who has also recently filed for a divorce.
Harris is reported to have filed for divorce from Ali Krieger after a four-year marriage, and the timing is thought to be suspect as Sophia only filed for divorce two months ago.
“Sources connected to the pair tell us the One Tree Hill actress and Ashlyn are officially a thing. The timing seems sudden, considering Harris only filed divorce docs from her wife and fellow USWNT star Ali Krieger less than a month ago,” TMZ claims.
Bush and Hughes were married for just over a year before their separation while Harris and Krieger have two children who were both adopted.
“Although it’s new information to the public, Ashlyn and Ali’s divorce began months ago and they have been living apart since the summer,” PEOPLE also notes, citing a source.

TMZ has since reached out to a representative of Huges, who claims that the latter wants the best for Sophia and will support her as long as she’s happy.
“Grant will always want the best for Sophia, and is supportive of all that makes her happy and fulfilled,” the rep said in a statement.
It’s understood that Harris and Bush have known each other for years and have been “running in the same social circles” for a while.
PEOPLE reports that they went out on their first date “a couple of weeks ago.”
