Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner are divorced and declared single

3 Min Read

A Florida judge has declared Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner divorced and single, signing a confidential agreement between the two.

A Miami-Dade County judge approved the agreement Friday, a year after the 35-year-old Jonas Brothers singer filed for divorce from the 28-year-old “Game of Thrones” and “X Men” actor and five years after the two were married.

The split calmly and relatively quickly ended a divorce that briefly turned bitter and seemed headed for a long and ugly custody battle.

The documents said moderate negotiations led to an agreement on splitting assets, spousal support and custody of their two daughters, 4-year-old Willa and 2-year-old Delphine.

Judge Gina Beovides stated that the marriage had been “irretrievably broken” and that the couple’s agreement, and especially their parenting plan, was in the best interests of the family.

After-hours emails seeking comment from representatives for both Turner and Jonas were not immediately returned.

The couple met through Instagram posts and started dating in 2016. They married in May 2019 in a secret ceremony at a Las Vegas wedding chapel after the Billboard Music Awards. Country duo Dan + Shay performed at the wedding.

Jonas filed for divorce in September 2023. In the filing, he requested joint custody and said the two had a prenuptial agreement.

The next day, the two posted an identical amicable statement on each of their Instagram accounts.

But the split turned into a serious dispute within weeks when Turner filed suit to force Jonas to surrender the girls’ passports so they could join her in her native England.

The daughters, who were born in the US but have dual citizenship, were with Joe Jonas in New York where he was on tour, court documents show, with Turner saying they planned to raise the girls together in England when their marriage fell apart. Turner said she heard about Jonas’ divorce filing through the media, while Jonas said the two had several conversations about it.

The custody battle was halted in January, a sign that the two were moving toward a settlement.

Turner, a native of Northampton, England, played Sansa Stark on HBO’s “Game of Thrones” for eight seasons and played Jean Gray in 2016’s “X-Men: Apocalypse” and 2019’s “Dark Phoenix.”

Arizona-born Jonas rose to fame with brothers Nick and Kevin in a band that began in 2005 and subsequent Disney Channel series. Last year they toured American stadiums with their sixth studio album.
