The news comes 15 years after Bush's whirlwind marriage to One Tree Hill co-star Chad Michael Murray.
They were one of young Hollywood's hottest couples when they married in 2005, only to split five months later amid rumours Murray had a fling with Paris Hilton while they filmed House of Wax in Australia at the time.
This rumour was never confirmed nor denied, but it didn't matter — Bush had already petitioned for an annulment.

In a later interview in 2011, Murray, now 39, appeared to discuss the scandal, telling E! News: "Um, you know, I was a kid. And I guess I just didn't see things as clear as I wish I did. I was just living my life, going out and I changed everything.
"When you're young and you're thrown into something that I was definitely not ready for — I'm human and screw up. I'm glad I went through it, I really am, because I wouldn't have come out the other side."
Murray is now married to Disturbia actress Sarah Roemer, with the couple tying the knot in 2015. The couple share two children: a five-year-old son and a four-year-old daughter, whose names they have not released publicly.
