Sophia Bush says she and her 'One Tree Hill' costars stayed quiet about their negative experiences on the show because they 'were scared to break hearts'

Sophia Bush opened up to Variety about why she and other cast members stayed quiet about the negative experiences they had working on "One Tree Hill," the teen drama that ran on the WB and The CW from 2003 to 2012.

"We were so scared to break hearts," Bush said in a joint interview with Bethany Joy Lenz and Hilarie Burton Morgan, her former costars on the show. "This thing that people love so much, how could we taint it?"

In 2017, Bush, Burton, and Lenz were among the many women from the cast and crew of "One Tree Hill" to sign a letter in support of writer Audrey Wauchope (published by Variety), who had detailed her negative experiences working with the show's creator, Mark Schwahn.

"Many of us were, to varying degrees, manipulated psychologically and emotionally," the letter read in part. "More than one of us is still in treatment for post-traumatic stress."
