'One Tree Hill' star branches out
The CW drama has let Bethany Joy Galeotti to explore herself
by Jeffrey Dransfeldt | Senior Sports Reporter
Bethany Joy Galeotti found comfort growing up via the written word.
When she was younger and living on her own in New York and Los Angeles, Galeotti lacked "deep" friendships and found solace by writing in journals.
She began making friends, and the pace of her writing slowed. Galeotti had people to bounce things off of and vent to, and she realized what relationships were all about.
"I still write every once in a while, but it's not nearly as much," Galeotti said. "It's not as cathartic as it used to be I think because I don't need it as much anymore."
Galeotti, who plays Haley James Scott on "One Tree Hill," has completed filming the show's fifth season and is residing at home with her husband, Michael Galeotti, in Vancouver, Wash.
Galeotti has been using her off-time to connect with friends and her husband's side of the family.
"It's the chance that you get for a relationship and just getting to know them better and being able to be around your family and friends," Galeotti said. "It just feels like such a privilege to me 'cause I'm always away, so I'm just really soaking in as much as I can."
"One Tree Hill" is filmed in Wilmington, N.C., where Galeotti joins her cast members who portray a close group of high school friends. The story line was advanced four years in the new season and shows the friends in the real world with real problems.
The season starts with the group spread out across the country, but they reconnect when they return to the fictional town of Tree Hill, N.C.
