Singledom is coming. At least, that is the case for Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas after the former couple finalised their divorce a year after filing.
As per reports, a Florida judge officially ruled that Turner and Jonas’ four-year marriage is “irretrievably broken” and signed off on a confidential settlement agreement between the pair. (The contents of which are not available to the public.)
Additional court documents state the terms of the arrangement are “in the best interests of the parties and this family,” adding that, “the marriage between the parties is dissolved and the parties are restored to the status of being single”.
The journey to reach this agreement has been highly publicised and acrimonious. For the uninitiated, the Jonas Brothers singer petitioned for divorce in a Miami court on September 5, 2023, kickstarting a year-long legal battle that Turner described as “torture”.
Turner and Jonas released a shared statement to the public on their respective Instagram accounts the day after. The post, which was signed “from the two of us”, advised they had “mutually decided to amicably end” their marriage after “wonderful” years together.
Though the couple had a pre-nuptial agreement in place, their separation played out in several courtrooms and the court of public opinion as Turner sued her ex for “the immediate return of children wrongfully removed or wrongfully retained”.
She accused Jonas of withholding the passports of their two daughters, Willa, 4 and Delphine, 2, and alleged he would not permit them to travel with her to her native U.K. The matter was resolved earlier this year.
Turner addressed the custody battle in a profile with British Vogue in March of this year, detailing her experience with misogyny and mum-shaming following the separation. “Those were the worst few days of my life,” she said of the aftermath and response to the breakup.
“There were some days that I didn’t know if I was going to make it,” she said of the proceedings before adding that she only wants her daughters to “feel loved and have everyone show up for them”.
Despite only being legally single from September 6, 2024, both Turner and Jonas found love after heartbreak and are dating other people. Jonas is seeing model Stormi Bree while Turner is in a relationship with British aristocrat Peregrine Pearson. Turner has also struck up newfound friendships with Taylor Swift, who also happens to be Jonas’ ex-girlfriend, and Dakota Johnson.
