Soon enough, Bethany’s involvement in the group caught the attention of her One Tree Hill castmates as she recalled seeing concern “on their faces.” In fact, costar Craig Sheffer even asking her “point blank” if she was in a cult while filming the CW series.
“I was like, ‘No, no, no,’” she recalled telling him. “‘Cults are weird. Cults are people in robes chanting crazy things and drinking Kool-Aid. That’s not what we do!’”
Nearly 10 years after joining, Bethany herself realized something was off about the community. After she married a fellow member and later welcomed her daughter Rosie, now 13, in 2011, she realized she wanted to leave a year later. (The Pearson alum divorced Michael Galeotti in 2012 after five years of marriage.)
