Ashlyn Harris reacts after Sophia Bush came out as queer
Hailing her girlfriend for coming out as queer, Harris took to her Instagram stories to share an interview, in which Bush admitted her relationship with former soccer star and opened up about her sexuality. “Proud of you babe,” Harris wrote.
After her separation with Grant Hughes, the actress wrote an essay for Glamour Magazine on Thursday in which she came out as queer. She also mentioned about her blossoming romance with Harris.
“I don’t know how else to say it other than: I didn’t see it until I saw it,” she noted.
“And I think it’s very easy not to see something that’s been in front of your face for a long time when you’d never looked at it as an option and you had never been looked at as an option.”
Explaining her sentiments about publicly revealing her sexuality, she admitted that she can finally breathe, adding “and that feels pretty great.”
