A day after the news of Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s divorce was made public, the pair have released their first statements on their decision to separate. The announcement of their divorce made headlines on Tuesday as the pop star and Game of Thrones actress confirmed that their four-year marriage, which had resulted in two children, was over. While sources close to Jonas and Turner have shared that their relationship has been on the rocks for some time, the pair posted a joint statement to their social media accounts today, calling their separation “amicable” and “a united decision.”
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner On Their “Mutual Decision” to Divorce
After three of dating, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner were married in 2019 in a two-part wedding: one part in Las Vegas, the other in France. In 2020, the couple would welcome their first daughter, Willa, followed by a second daughter, known as D.J., in 2022. Publicly, Jonas and Turner’s marriage seemed as solid as one could get in Hollywood, but their divorce announcement earlier this week revealed that everything wasn’t as it seemed. On Saturday, PEOPLE Magazine revealed that Joe Jonas hired a divorce lawyer, and the reveal of the couple’s divorce papers yesterday proved that Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s marriage was officially over.
According to the divorce papers collected by TODAY, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have cited an “irretrievably broken” marriage as grounds for their divorce. Sources close to the couple have shared that the pair haven’t been close for “a while” and lived apart all summer, but that a prenup had been signed. As far as their daughters are concerned, Jonas and Turner are supposedly still figuring out their custody agreements but have confirmed that their daughters have been living with their father in Miami, Florida.
In their first public statement concerning their divorce, Jonas and Turner posted a joint statement to their Instagram accounts. The statement, while requesting that people respect their wishes for privacy, states that the couple have “mutually decided to amicably end their marriage.” Refusing to touch on any of the speculation surrounding the reasons for the divorce, the statement continued that “truly this is a united decision.”
Further information regarding Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s divorce will likely be made available soon.
