Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner, the hit Hollywood couple that gave us everything have announced that they are now separated and are heading for a divorce, but the social media posts from both stars keep fans hopeful for a reconciliation.
Just three weeks ago, Sophie Turner posted a photo on her Instagram account of her and her husband seemingly at the backstage of what we can assume as the venue for The Jonas Brothers’ concert. So the rumors that the two are separating sent fans into an uproar.
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have charmed Hollywood and the world with their relationship. They constantly posted videos and photos of each other on their social media accounts. The It-couple has also often been photographed together on red carpets since getting married in 2019.
Turner and Jonas welcomed their first child, Willa, back in 2020 and had their second child just last year. But it seems trouble has been brewing in paradise for the couple. However, Joe Jonas seemed to be trying to clear the air by posting two photos clearly showing his wedding ring on his Instagram on Monday.
So the world was taken on a rollercoaster ride when Joe Jonas himself, filed for divorce in Miami the very next day after his posts. Yesterday, September 5, he “filed a petition for dissolution of marriage” in Florida. According to the petition, the reason for the divorce is “the marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken.” The divorce petition also states that Jonas wants “shared parental responsibility” even though his children are currently living with him.
The netizens have done their homework and a 2022 interview of Sophie Turner’s has resurfaced. In the article, Turner says, “I miss England so much…The people, the attitude, everything. I’m slowly dragging my husband back. I really love living in America but, for my mental health, I have to be around my friends and family. And also for my daughter – I would love her to get the education and school life that I was so lucky to have.”
But with the vague reason for filing a divorce, everyone was still confused about why the couple was separating. They always seemed to have a really good relationship in public, so why this drastic measure?
Well, TMZ dug deeper and according to a source, the reason was their vastly different lifestyles. Sophie Turner, being younger than Joe Jonas, reportedly liked “partying.” Jonas was allegedly a homebody, while Turner liked to go out and have fun. “[Turner] likes to party, [Jonas] likes to stay home. They have very different lifestyles.”
The latest post on Instagram from both Jonas and Turner finally put an end to the rumor mill. It said, “After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage. There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.”
The couple has a prenuptial agreement in place, and the divorce proceedings are expected to happen. And Jonas is lawyering up, hiring the attorney who took care of Tiger Woods’ divorce.
