Sophia Bush & Austin Nichols: On-Again Couple?

On-again, off-again couple Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols seem to be on-again as they arrive together at LaGuardia Airport in New York City on Sunday (August 17).

Sophia was seen lugging around a black Titan rolling suitcase, a Max Azria shopping bag and a gray quilted Chanel handbag.

The One Tree Hill costars have been busy in North Carolina shooting their upcoming CW series. Sophia, 27, and Austin, 29, reportedly started dating in early 2006.

    Wow, Sophia looks stunning. I’m loving the darker and longer hair, it suits her so much more than last seasons hair. I heard they were in town to shoot the new promo shots?

  2. sam Says:


    ohhh boy here we go again and let the rumors beginn….. sophia looks good, till this day i still dont understand how people can find austin attractive at all…

  3. ashley Says:


    HMM,
    well I think the whole cast went to take promo pictures, so I don’t think that means they are together! aha :p

  4. alex Says:


    They were doing a photoshoot but yeah Austin and Sophia are together.

  5. Lauren Says:


    If it’s true, I’m mean, if they are back together, i’ll only say: Work it on, girl. In my humble opinion, Austin is waaaaay hotter than Chad, Jon and even James. She’s a lucky girl, anyways…

  6. alex Says:


    that’s for sure… Austin is dreamy…

  7. lilly Says:


    poor Jana is in pics with them but no one noticed her.

  8. ash Says:


    I agree sam.

    I don’t find austin attractive either

  9. lauren Says:


    aw, they would be cute together, i hope it’s true. but here come the rumors again, haha. anyways, i hope it works out for them, and brulian!

  10. Charlene Says:


    I really hope that they were all there for new photos, cant wait!!
    Loving Sophia’s hair looks totally awesome!
    Austin still looking hawt! lol

  11. unknown Says:


    i agree with Sam. I dont think his attractive.

  12. OTHgilmore4life-naley baby Says:


    im SUPER DUPER excited for these new photos !!! i love austin/julian but he is SOOOOO not hotter than james. james is the best :D

  13. Weenie Says:


    Why didn’t she travel with James? I guess it is true they are no longer together. She must have used him to get back at Chad for dating an extra from the set. Way to go James you fell for it and now that Chad left she doesn’t need you to rub in his face anymore. Anyhow James was too immature for her. Couldn’t handle all the publicity that comes when you decide to get it on on with your co-star, who is also your other co-star/ friend ex-wife. I think Austin is more for her, age wise and maturity wise. James appears like an over grown although, hot, very hot, boy! But boy do I wish I was a fly on the wall around that set! Juicy gossip I am sure.

  14. anna Says:


    I agree Sam.I don’t find austin attractive either.

  15. stefny0 Says:


    Austin is soo not hotter than Chad and James in my OPINION
    I actually only find austin funny not even attractive. SOPHia looks so much better now that she’s growing her hair back. the short made her look defo older

  16. laura Says:


    dude there is no way that austin is hotter, james and chad are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more better looking than austin but austin is really funny and flirty, i wonder how long this relationship will last lol
    i think jon foster was the perfect pair for her, austin is to much of a player and james was to immature

  17. MB Davis Says:


    Sophia need to get a new hobbie and stop messing with Co-Stars. Jesus! Thsi girl get around town huh?

    Why won’t she just come out and deny it? If it’s not true stop trying to play off of the publicity she gets from it. I like her but she needs to start acting more serious. People will be on their toes about hiring her since she has this not too good rep.

  18. TeenDramaWhore Says:


    Alex–what is your proof they are “together”?

    MB–stars don’t deny a lot of things, even if they aren’t true.

    I second what Ashley and Lilly says.

  19. alex Says:


    Go spent one week in Wilmington and you’ll have proof that they are together that’s all im saying

  20. shadester Says:


    I thought she was with James? Austin is hot!

  21. TeenDramaWhore Says:


    Alex–you saw them on set or out together somewhere or what? Unless you saw them making out or something off-set, I would chalk it up to friendly behavior that happens when you’ve been close with someone for years.

  22. alex Says:


    I saw them out to lunch a lot of time downtown Wilmington where they were acting really close like Austin arm around her shoulders, whispering in her ears, Sophia leaning into Austin and also Sophia’s hand on Austin legs and I also saw them in a bar where they were dancing really close… People in Wilmongton know about it, Sophia and Austin are always together.

  23. TeenDramaWhore Says:


    Alex, thanks for answering.

    I don’t doubt that you saw all that, but appearances (what they mean) can be deceiving. I’ve acted like that and spent all time with many a guy friend. When you get to your 20s, it’s really not all that uncommon. It’s not unusual, and it’s not slutty and it doesn’t necessarily mean you are dating.

    Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t.

  24. lilly Says:


    People in Wilmington also love to gossip about oth cast and since no one saw them kissing just hanging out together I’m still convinced they are friends.

  25. alex Says:


    well to me they seemed more than just 2 good friends you know,I live in downtown Wilmington and so does Austin and I can tell you that Sophia spend a lot of time their. You can believe me or not I honestly don’t care about it, I just taught some of you might like to know.

  26. TeenDramaWhore Says:


    Alex, thanks for posting it. I am appreciative.

    I just spend a lot of time with guys, too. Doesn’t mean I’m dating them.

    I don’t not believe you, or believe you. Just cautious, cynical, skeptical–and a journalist!

    Thanks again for the info!

  27. mary Says:


    funny,cause Austin lives near beach.

  28. alex Says:


    well its funny cause Austin car is always there and one day he and Sophia arrive at about 8pm after diner and filming and i only saw them again the day after when they were going to film at Tric

  29. TeenDramaWhore Says:


    Alex–Never slept at a guy friend’s house before? Things can just be platonic.

  30. artemi Says:


    I so hope they are together, although flying together doesnt mean anything

  31. kiley Says:


    all i’m going to say is if they;re together then they’re together and if they’re not then they’re not. i don’t have the right to criticize someone i don’t even know

  32. Logan Davis Says:


    here we go again is right–Alex, let’s not invade each other’s privacy but, like the saying goes, “I’ll believe it when i see it.” TeenDW is right. You have a guy friend that you’re close too and you’re outta highschool, you can chill and it doesn’t have to mean you’re together. Sophia’s a single, beautiful adult. She’s not a lawyer or a senator for pete’s sake, she’s an actress. Whether they’re dating or not, what’s it matter? She’s having fun and living her life–how’s it change any of our lives or affect us in any way except something to talk about? I say, “CARPE DIEM, BABY!”

  33. SophiaFan Says:


    I think its so funny when people make such a big deal about Sophia dating her costars, as if she just bounces from co-star to co-star. I think its safe to say a majority of celebrity couples met as costars – its not weird or uncommon.

    She and Austin were a couple BEFORE they were costars – so maybe they are just really good friends now. Or maybe, whatever spark they had back then came back after spending so much time together.

    Who knows, who care…..live & let live.

  34. nhjennyo Says:


    aww JANA KRAMER is there too…sad no one noticed her she is sooo pretty

  35. diane Says:


    I can back up Alex because I’ve seen everything she’s talking about. Sophia and Austin definitely seem to have something going on. Anyone who’s in wilmington will tell you that. They’re both really kind people so if they’re happy together, which they seem to be, I’m very happy for them. They both went to USC and are very intelligent people, they seem to care about the same causes and have a lot in common, I’m not surprised they’re together but I honestly don’t care about it that I would make stuff up about it. You just can’t deny so much when it adds up.
    I normally don’t listen to gossip and don’t believe rumors until I see something with my own eyes and that’s the case with these two.
    Austin is very HOT so I don’t blame her!

  36. diane Says:


    Oh and I agree, I don’t understand why people make a big deal of Sophia dating her co-stars, so many actors do that, these are the people they spend the most time with, it’s normal. Plus, you can’t help who you fall in love with. And also her and Austin did date way before he joined OTH so it’s no big deal that they’re dating again.

  37. alex Says:


    Thank you Diane for supporting what I said, I don’t get why people start saying Sophia is a sl*t because she is dating Austin I mean they know each other for years, and they have dated way before in the past. They are both so happy together right now, when you see them they always look so happy in their life so let them be happy and stop saying cr*p about them.

  38. jane Says:


    She’s not dating Austin, they are great friends and besides that Austin is gay.

  39. diane Says:


    Omg, those gay rumors are beyond ridiculous and immature! I have met many gay guys and Austin is NOT one of them! And people can deny they’re dating all they want, I don’t care if anyone believes it, because it’s not going to change the truth. It always seems to me that the people who deny it are just the ones that don’t want it to be true. I just don’t understand how some can be so sure they’re not dating without anything to back it up, when those who say they are, have evidence of our claims.

  40. alex Says:


    ^agree with you all the way. Sophia and Austin are dating that’s it even if you dont want them to date I dont think they care about what you guys say.

  41. Weenie Says:


    The truth will all come out in a few years down the road when E! News decides to do a True Hollywood Story on OTH. Should be very interesting to say the least.
