Sophia Bush plays supportive Instagram girlfriend for Ashlyn Harris during Cannes Lions chat

CANNES — Sophia Bush played the perfect Instagram girlfriend during her partner Ashlyn Harris’ chat at Cannes Lions on Monday.

The “One Tree Hill” alum sat in the audience at Axios Women’s Sports House as the former goalkeeper chatted with fellow athletes Rennae Stubbs and Logan Eggleston about their experience at past Olympics ahead of the Paris Games this summer.

Photos and video obtained by Page Six exclusively show Bush, 41, recording Harris, 38, as the soccer star sat onstage during her panel. The actress dressed in a chic, loose-fitting pantsuit for the intimate event and even removed her shoes at one point to give her feet a break.

Harris, meanwhile, rocked blue slacks that she paired with a knit short-sleeved sweater.

During the conversation, the two-time World Cup winner admitted she was “disappointed” with her time at the 2016 Rio Olympics because she and her teaMMAtes were not able to participate in the opening ceremony or stay in the village.

“We didn’t get to the walk out with the American flag or get dressed in all this beautiful Ralph Lauren, you know, cheesy but amazing clothes,” she said.

“We traveled every two days, we had different locations, and we didn’t get to enjoy the experience of being around all the athletes and eating at the cafeteria.”

Page Six reported in October 2023 that Bush was dating Harris after the US Women’s National Soccer Team star filed for divorce from Ali Krieger. Bush had gone through a divorce of her own, having split from now-ex-husband Grant Hughes in August 2023.

Although the new couple had attended public events together, including Elton John’s Oscars bash earlier this year, the “Chicago P.D.” star did not officially speak out on the romance until April when she opened up to Glamour about her “breathtaking” partner.

“Falling in love with her has sutured some of my own childhood wounds,” Bush wrote in an essay for the glossy, “and made me so much closer to my own mother.”
