Lucy Hale is sharing the nostalgia as Pretty Little Liars turns 15, and she’s not holding back on her memories from the iconic show.
The actress, now 36, took to Instagram on Monday, June 16, to celebrate the milestone with some candid behind-the-scenes photos and videos from her time on the Freeform series.
A Heartfelt Post From Lucy Hale
In her post, Hale wrote, “Happy 15 years to PLL 🤫 the nostalgia!!,” along with a series of personal photos. She humorously noted, “Some of these photos are so low quality but it really was a different time lol.“
Hale also shared a video she found by accident, reflecting a small, yet meaningful moment from filming.
She went on to express her gratitude, writing, “This experience changed my life, and I will always be grateful to everyone involved. And to all of you, who made this one incredible ride.
Thank you for keeping this alive for so many years, and I know it’ll be one that people keep discovering.” She also encouraged fans to share their thoughts, saying, “I want to hear all the crazy A theories you had in the comments 💋.“
Hale, who portrayed Aria Montgomery on the show, continued to reflect on the lasting impact of Pretty Little Liars, a show that captured the hearts of millions during its run from 2010 to 2017.
The series followed a group of teenage girls in a small Pennsylvania town as they uncovered the mystery of their best friend’s disappearance, all while being stalked by the mysterious “A.”
A Flood of Memories and Reactions
The anniversary didn’t go unnoticed by Hale’s former castmates, who also took to the comments to celebrate the milestone. Troian Bellisario, who played Spencer Hastings, wrote, “Still can’t believe it! Miss you sweet goose!” Sasha Pieterse, who portrayed the missing Alison DiLaurentis, added, “Love you so much!“
Fans of the show also joined the celebration by sharing their theories about “A” in the comments, just as Hale encouraged. One fan wrote, “Aria should have been A for so many reasons and I SWEAR that’s where it was headed because there were so many clues and signs!!!“
