Sophia Bush Says Talking About Chad Michael Murray 'Not Worth' Her Time

Sophia Bush’s relationship with Chad Michael Murray is murky water under the bridge.
The “One Tree Hill” alums began dating in 2003 after the show debuted and two years later they were married.
Bush and Murray became one of Young Hollywood’s HOTTEST couples, and fans ate up their relationship!
Sadly, five months into "wedded bliss," the couple split after rumors surfaced Murray may have strayed from the marriage with his “House Of Wax” co-star Paris Hilton.
This rumor was neither confirmed nor denied.
Bush filed for an annulment that same year citing “fraud” in the filing.
Peace Out Marriage!
At time of the annulment Bush said, "It devastates me now that I have been reduced to a Hollywood statistic — another joke marriage. I never expected to be married more than once … because I knew what I was getting into and will always believe in love."
Now, 16 years after heartbreak, the “John Tucker Must Die” actress is speaking out on why she doesn’t waste her time talking about her ex.
During a recent appearance on the “Inside of You” podcast with “Smallville’s” Michael Rosenbaum, Bush blatantly said she would not talk about Murray.
Not gunna talk about it!
"I'm not allowed to because I've tried to poke fun at being a dumb kid and whenever I've done that, it gets twisted into I'm talking s--t about somebody who I don't even know anymore, who's clearly a grown-up," she admitted.
Bush feels it’s important to learn to laugh at yourself, no matter what age.
"I think you have to laugh at who you used to be," she elaborated, "but when people ask me about history that involves someone else…it's not worth my time. It's not a place where I harbor ill will or anything."
The actress noted that whatever she says about the past never comes out right.
“And I've tried to like, you know, do the thing where when I get stuck live on the air—which has happened to me twice—getting asked about it where I give a little...like jazz hands quip and move on," she explained. "It just doesn't work, so I'm not going to."
“I was a very naïve 21-year-old kid, and that's all there is to it,” Bush quipped.
Love is not dead for Bush. In fact, she JUST GOT ENGAGED!
