Few were surprised when news of singer Joe Jonas and actress Sophie Turner’s split broke on Tuesday, September 5. The issue had been in the air for days, if not weeks. The 34-year-old musician was seen without a wedding ring at several of his concerts. The family mansion in Miami sold in August after some renovations and price cuts. He tried some matrimonial lawyers. The media had been pointing out a crisis for a long time. And the facts have confirmed it. While the press announced the divorce application on Tuesday, the now ex-couple came forward with a short statement on Wednesday. But the American media, which is sometimes prone to inflating stories about certain characters, got it right almost minute by minute in the case of the marriage between the Jonas Brothers singer and the Game of Thrones actor. And they continue to ask questions about their difficulties.
In the joint letter, which is published on their Instagram profiles and in which no comments are allowed, both make the same words public. “Notice from both of us: After four wonderful years of marriage, we have mutually decided to end our marriage,” they begin their letter. “There are many speculative stories about the reasons,” they both admit, “but it is actually a consensual decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our privacy wishes for ourselves and our daughters.”

These “speculative narratives” are, but not so much. Because there are documents and sources that explain the fall of the Jonas-Turners and the reasons that brought them to this point after their fleeting romance, their long engagement, their two weddings in Las Vegas and in France and their two daughters. one and three years old, together. Ever-familiar with celebrity circles, People tells People that the couple has been living apart for “months,” according to sources close to them, and that they spent “the entire summer apart.” “They haven’t been in a relationship for some time, but they hope to resolve the issue amicably.” The decision has just been made and they are waiting to decide on custody. As for their assets, they have a prenuptial agreement whereby he retains the benefits of his copyrights and she keeps what she earned from Game of Thrones and her other works. The Florida-based girls spent the last few months with Joe while Sophie worked in her home country of the UK.
According to divorce papers filed Tuesday in Florida and accessed by TMZ, the singer intends for the little ones to stay in Miami “and other locations throughout the United States”; That means they are not traveling to England with their mother, and he also wants to put a plan in place that will allow the two of them to have “continuous and frequent contact with both parties,” according to close sources. He hired Thomas Sasser, a renowned West Palm Beach attorney who handled Tiger Woods’ 2010 divorce and also reportedly hired Gisele Bündchen for her split from Tom Brady.
The couple’s different lifestyles have not helped them cope with the relationship. Nowadays, there are sources close to her who claim that Turner was very sociable and liked to go out at night, while Jonas was more homely and reserved in this nightlife. However, during the pandemic there are interviews with the two that confirm the opposite. In 2020, Turner said, half-jokingly, half-seriously, that home quarantine life wasn’t difficult for her because she was “introverted, very homey”: “If I could spend the day at home, I would, “So that’s great for me,” she said in an interview with Conan O’Brien, and that this time worked out in her favor because her husband is “a very social person.” “It’s hard for me to lock him up and spend time with myself. For him it’s like a prison, but for me it’s fantastic,” he said, explaining that the musician put together DJ sets and broadcast his sessions with music on Instagram.
So it fits this new version that Turner was the queen of the party – there are some photos of her taking photos with some friends in London a few days before the divorce, apparently celebrating the end of a shoot – and he wasn’t at home with any of his own Testify. This has led some of the actress’s fans to accuse Jonas of leaking information and narratives to start a “smear campaign” against the mother of his daughters. Let’s not forget that both have legions of admirers based on their careers: he, because he was part of the Jonas Brothers, a band that became a teenage phenomenon in the mid-2000s and returned with great success; her because she is part of two sagas that have a large fan base: that of Game of Thrones (where she played Sansa Stark) and that of X-Men (as the Dark Phoenix).
What is certain is that almost all information to which the American press has access favors Jonas’ position. The latest episode they leaked is that he watched her through a home camera doing or saying something he didn’t like, so much so that he saw his marriage was irretrievably over. However, these are only partial sources and the protagonists have not confirmed anything in this regard and are unlikely to confirm it. The secrets stay hidden in Miami mansions and from tough lawyers…at least until someone reveals them.
