Sophia Bush’s friends hyped her up as she navigated her divorce from Grant Hughes.
"Bush asked Bethany Joy Lenz on their podcast "Drama Queens" if she remembered the song 'Hot Girl Summer' by Megan Thee Stallion. Lenz replied in the affirmative. Bush went on to explain that during the late spring and early summer, she and many of her friends were going through difficult breakups at the same time."
"Someone even dubbed it 'Hot Divorce Summer' at one point, and I couldn't stop laughing," Bush said. "The fact that our group chat is not only lifting everyone's spirits, but also exchanging lawyer recommendations, sharing quotes from amazing writers, running a book club, and sending each other funny memes from TikTok, it's just become so amazing."
As Bush thought about her participation in the group chat, she had a revelation. She suggested that maybe their divorcee group chat should be turned into a movie. "Perhaps we should turn that into a movie," she joked.
“That’s the rom-com I want to watch!” Lenz gushed.
