Listening to Sofia Carson and Dove Cameron Talk About Their Friendship Is So Pure

If you've seen Disney's Descendants [1] trilogy, then you know that Mal and Evie (otherwise known as the daughter of Maleficent and the daughter of Evil Queen, respectively) are totally wicked bestie goals. What you may not know, however, is that actresses Dove Cameron and Sofia Carson have just as close of a bond when the cameras aren't rolling. The two Disney darlings majorly bonded during their six years of filming the trilogy, and unexpectedly losing their cast mate and close friend, Cameron Boyce [2], in July 2019 has only seemed to bring them closer together. Check out the gallery for the star's sweetest quotes about each other over the years.

Dove on Sofia

On how she and Sofia supported each other after Cameron Boyce's death [4]: "Me, Boo Boo, Cam, and Sofia still have our core four group chat active and open, as we have for 5 years. It's hard when there are no adequate words to express the pain we are all feeling, but the usual text is 'love you.' Or 'Are you eating?' Or 'How are we all today?' I think something like this horrible loss makes you realise how important you are all to each other. I am grateful for my chosen family at a time like this."
On how Sofia is always in tune with her emotions [5]: "Sofia . . . can always tell when I'm in a bad mood."
On how she and Sofia mourned the end of Descendants together [6]: "Sofia and I, we laid down on our big musical set, on the bridge. And we held hands, and we were like, 'Let's just stay here until the crew kicks us out.' And we did."

On what Sofia and her Descendants family mean to her: "These past 6 years have been filled with more growth, more deep, true love and more vibrant LIFE, than most people experience in a lifetime and for that, I am forever grateful and forever indebted. I am humbled by the relationships I have made, the family I have found. To @sofiacarson, @booboostewart.art, and cameron. Words fail me. My heart is heavy with pain, and aching, agonizing love. My siblings. 6 years with the best. How did I get so lucky?"
On why her relationship with Sofia and her other cast mates has persisted after Descendants: "We've all been around each other so much more recently than we usually are than when we're not doing the films. I think it's felt quite healthy, quite like, everything's still kind of the same. It's not. But if we can kind of feel like it is."
In response to a fan who asked if she and Sofia are in love: "Yeah."
