Joe Jonas has initiated divorce proceedings against Sophie Turner after four years of marriage.
The divorce petition was submitted by Joe on Tuesday, 5th September 2023, in Miami-Dade County, Florida. This is where they recently sold their $15 million property, as reported by various publications. The filing states that “the marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken” and asserts that despite their children currently residing with Joe in Miami, “it is in the best interests of the minor children that the parties share parental responsibility.”
The couple has been the subject of ongoing rumors for several days. On Monday, September 4, Joe seemed to dispel these rumors by sharing an Instagram photo proudly displaying his wedding ring. Posing in a graphic tee and jeans, he shared the photo without a caption, but the ring was front and center, and fans responded accordingly: “Y’all really made this man post a singular picture of himself wearing his ring because of rumors going around the internet lmao.”
Joe, 34, met Sophie in 2016 and the two announced their engagement the following year.
“I was probably more nervous to ask her dad than I was to ask her,” Joe revealed to fans about the engagement, and they secretly tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2019 before hosting a big wedding celebration at Chateau Du Taureau in France, attended by Joe’s groomsmen Nick and Kevin Jonas and their wives, Priyanka Chopra and Danielle Jonas.
They welcomed their two daughter Willa, in 2020, and a second born in 2022, whose name has not yet been revealed.
“I want to feel like an open book,” Joe shared in 2022 as he spoke candily about keeping their lives private, “but when we started dating, I realized that I didn’t have a ton of stuff that was just for me. And in the end, it makes me a better person to have something for myself.”
Sophie has also shared in the past that she knew on the first night she met Joe that he would be the man she would marry.
“The first night I met him, I remember, he left my apartment. And it may have been the alcohol , but I remember him leaving, and I weeped, I wept to my brother, ‘I love this man so much.’ And I knew, and that was it!” she told Jimmy Fallon.
