One Tree Hill alum Bethany Joy Lenz has been candid about her “recovery” after a decade in a cult.
“I was in a cult for 10 years,” Lenz said during a July 2023 episode of her “Drama Queens” podcast, which she cohosts with fellow OTH stars Hilarie Burton Morgan and Sophia Bush. “That would be a really valuable experience to write about, and the recovery — 10 years of recovery after that. So there’s a lot to tell.”
According to Lenz, she wanted to write about her experience despite initial hesitations.
“I don’t know how much I can say because there are still people and legal things in place that make it more complicated for the timing of that,” she added.
Lenz ultimately did record her thoughts in a memoir, titled Dinner for Vampires, which hits bookstore shelves in October 2024. The name of the cult that Lenz allegedly belonged to was revealed via the book’s synopsis.
“An only child who often had to fend for herself and always wanted a place to belong, Lenz found the safe haven she’d been searching for in a Bible study group with other Hollywood creatives,” the summary reads on publisher Simon & Schuster’s website. “However, the group soon morphed into something more sinister — a slowly woven web of manipulation, abuse, and fear under the guise of a church covenant called The Big House Family.” (Us Weekly has reached out for comment.
While few details are known about the organization, the book’s logline notes that Lenz was convinced to marry one of the sons of a “domineering minister,” who allegedly “drained millions of her TV income without her knowledge.” (Lenz was previously married to Michael Galeotti between 2005 and 2012. They share daughter Maria Rose.)
