In the last few years, some critics have questioned whether stars still need to announce they are coming out, as wider society becomes more accepting of the LGBTQ+ community .
But Renée Rapp , Deshawn Radden, and other stars have said they hope that talking about their journeys could help any fans struggling with their LGBTQ+ identity.
Sophia Bush wrote in an essay for Glamour in April that she thought it was especially important to be vocal about her sexuality after she saw that state legislators had introduced more than 500 anti-LGBTQ bills in 2023.
In October 2023, multiple outlets reported that Sophia Bush was dating soccer player Ashlyn Harris. This news came shortly after Harris and her ex-wife Ali Krieger filed for divorce, so some fans called Harris a cheater and accused Bush of being a "homewrecker."
"I think I've always known that my sexuality exists on a spectrum," Bush wrote. "Right now I think the word that best defines it is queer. I can't say it without smiling, actually. And that feels pretty great."
"I finally feel like I can breathe. I don't think I can explain how profound that is," Bush said. "I can feel my legs and feet. I can feel my feet in my shoes right now. It makes me want to cry and laugh at the same time."
