Joe Jonas, Sophie Turner's divorce finalized after a year-long battle
What's the story
Hollywood celebrities Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have officially ended their marriage after a year-long highly publicized legal battle.
The divorce was finalized on Tuesday (local time), according to TMZ.
Jonas (35) had filed for divorce from the 28-year-old Game of Thrones actor in September last year.
The couple has reached a mutually agreed-upon settlement, the details of which remain confidential.
Marriage
Jonas, Turner's 4-year marriage ends
Jonas and Turner had started dating in 2016 and got married in a spontaneous Las Vegas ceremony in 2019.
They have two daughters together: Willa (born in 2020) and Delphine (2022).
The divorce was acrimonious from the start—centering largely on a bitter custody feud.
After the couple had announced their split, Turner had filed a lawsuit against Jonas, accusing him of "child abduction."
She claimed Jonas withheld their children's passports to prevent them from traveling to her native England.
Statement
Jonas's team had refuted Turner's claims
A representative for Jonas had told The Post, "Sophie was aware that Joe was going to file for divorce."
"Joe is seeking shared parenting with the kids so that they are raised by both their mother and father, and is of course also okay with the kids being raised both in the US and the UK."
"The children were born in the US and have spent the vast majority of their lives in the US. They are American citizens."
Mediation
Meanwhile, legally single—Jonas, Turner have started dating again!
In October 2023, Jonas and Turner had entered into mediation to try and sort out a property and custody settlement.
The estranged couple had agreed that their kids would split their time between Jonas's home in the US and Turner's in the UK.
Meanwhile, both Jonas and Turner—now legally single—have started dating.
Turner has been seeing British aristocrat Peregrine Pearson while Jonas is reportedly involved with Lebanese actor Laila Abdallah following a fling with actor-model Stormi Bree.
