Although Harry breaks off contact with Cho Chang because she betrayed Dumbledore's Army, she did not do this intentionally. While being interrogated by Umbridge, she was given a cup of tea that had Veritaserum in it, a powerful truth potion. This is revealed later on in dialogue, when Snape tells Umbridge that he can't provide any more Veritaserum for her to use on Harry, because she used the last on Cho Chang. In the book, things happened a bit differently: during one of her early interrogations, Umbridge puts Veritaserum in Harry's tea. However, he sees through the ruse, throws away the tea but acts like he drank it. Cho then introduces her friend Marietta into the group, who later betrays Dumbledore's Army to Umbridge under duress: Marietta's mother works at the Ministry of Magic, and Umbridge threatens to fire her if Marietta doesn't cooperate. Cho later tries to plead for some sympathy for Marietta with Harry, but this angers him, and they part ways.
