Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner are speaking out after news broke that they are ending their marriage.
In a joint statement posted to both of their social media accounts, the two stars said that they are parting on the friendliest of terms. “After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage,” their statement began. “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 Jonas Brothers member filed for divorce in Florida’s Miami-Dade County on Tuesday (Sept. 5), Billboard confirmed. He stated in the court documents that “the marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken.”
The former couple met in 2016, and married in two ceremonies in 2019. The first was a surprise Vegas wedding in May that they held immediately after attending the Billboard Music Awards, where the Jonas Brothers had just performed. They then threw a lavish wedding at the end of June in Southern France.
They kept their first pregnancy mum, never confirming that the Game of Thrones actress was expecting, even though she was spotted out with a baby bump. Their daughter Willa arrived in the summer of 2020, they confirmed in a statement to Billboard at the time. Jonas and Turner kept their second pregnancy even more private, revealing only that the actress had given birth to a second daughter in the summer of 2022, and have not yet revealed her name.
