Hilarie Burton Reflects on One Tree Hill Amid Tyler Hilton’s Split

Hilarie Burton shared a nostalgic photo from her time on One Tree Hill following the news of her co-star Tyler Hilton’s divorce. Over the weekend, she posted a throwback image on her Instagram Stories featuring her character Peyton Sawyer in a cheerleading outfit, looking playfully mischievous.

This image comes from a scene in the show’s third season where Peyton slaps Chris Keller, played by Hilton, for flirting with Haley James, portrayed by Bethany Joy Lenz. Alongside the photo, she captioned it with a cryptic “IYKYK 🤮.”

Interestingly, her post appeared just a day after Hilton, 42, announced his split from wife Megan Park, 39, after a decade of marriage. In his Instagram update, Hilton mentioned, “I’ve never been very comfortable sharing personal information about my family life, but I’ve seen enough speculation online that I thought I needed to clarify.” He further noted that he and Megan decided to end their marriage, emphasizing that their children would remain their priority.

Despite the lack of explicit context, Burton’s reference to the past stood out against the backdrop of Hilton’s divorce announcement. He expressed gratitude to fans, asking for respect for their privacy during this transition.

As of now, Park has not commented publicly on the separation. The couple shares a 6-year-old daughter named Winnie and a son, Benny, born in 2024. They met while filming the 2007 movie Charlie Bartlett and tied the knot in 2015.

Speculation about their split had been brewing for months, with reports suggesting they stopped wearing their wedding rings by the end of 2025. Notably, it was mentioned that the couple unfollowed each other on social media prior to the announcement.

In the meantime, Burton and fellow One Tree Hill actress Sophia Bush also seem to have unfollowed Park. Reactions to these developments are still unfolding, as representatives for Burton have not yet provided comments on the situation.

Hilton previously shared how he formed deep connections with the One Tree Hill cast, describing those relationships as akin to college friendships. Reflecting on his experience, he noted that it’s rare in the industry to keep in touch with co-stars from one’s early career.

As fans process these recent events, the dynamics among the cast continue to attract attention, leaving many to wonder about the future for all parties involved.
