‘One Tree Hill’ Alum Danneel Ackles Tried to Set Up Husband Jensen Ackles With Sophia Bush
Danneel Ackles, formerly known as Danneel Harris, recently shared a surprising revelation during her appearance on the "Drama Queens" podcast. Hosted by her One Tree Hill co-stars Sophia Bush, Hilarie Burton Morgan, and Bethany Joy Lenz, the podcast episode featured a game of "23 Questions," during which Danneel was asked to name the greatest love of her life. Without hesitation, she answered, "It has to be Jensen" in reference to her now-husband, Jensen Ackles.
Danneel's comment sparked reminiscence from Burton Morgan, who mentioned how cute the couple looked at the beginning of their relationship. In return, Danneel jokingly mentioned how she and Jensen had tried to set Sophia up with him in the past.
She confessed, "I don't know why you said no, but thank you for saying no... You should go on a date with him. He's really nice!" Sophia Bush recalled the incident and revealed that she had been in a phase where she swore off dating actors.
She chuckled, admitting, "But I was like, 'No! I'm gonna be more responsible with myself.' And you know, he's your perfect person, so we did good." Danneel and Jensen's connection began while they were working together on the set of One Tree Hill. Bush noted that everyone around them could sense the chemistry between the two, saying, "You knew, he knew, everybody around you could tell. That was cool to see.
" Danneel joked about the unfortunate situation for their respective exes, but quickly added that both of them have moved on to happier relationships. Danneel and Jensen tied the knot in 2010, with Burton Morgan and fellow One Tree Hill costars Bevin Prince and Elisabeth Harnois as bridesmaids. The couple welcomed their first child, daughter J.J., in May 2013, and their twins, Zeppelin and Arrow, in August 2016.
