Joe Jonas tried to “salvage” his four-year marriage to Sophie Turner before filing for divorce Tuesday, a source close to the family tells Pvnew exclusively.
“Divorce was a last resort for Joe. He never wanted to break up his family, but he had to take what he felt was the best course of action for his girls,” the insider says, giving further insight into the demise of their relationship.
“An unhappy home isn’t a home, and the truth is that he and Sophie were going through it this year. There’s a lot of noise out there, but it wasn’t a straw-that-broke-the-camel’s-back situation like it’s being reported.”
The insider adds the estranged couple, who tied the knot in May 2019, had “many disagreements.”
“It just kept building, and Joe finally reached a point where he felt that he had exhausted all options to salvage the marriage,” the source notes.
One of those disagreements may have been their different lifestyles, as a second source previously claimed that Turner’s partying factored into their divorce.
“She likes to party; he likes to stay at home. They have very different lifestyles,” the insider told TMZ Tuesday.
What you need to know about Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner's split
Joe Jonas filed for divorce from wife Sophie Turner on Sept. 5, 2023, after four years of marriage.
The couple have two children together.
A source claims the pair had “many disagreements,” and the divorce was a “last resort” for Jonas.
Jonas is seeking “shared parental responsibility” with his estranged wife.
The children are said to live primarily with Jonas, and the singer is said to be caring for them “pretty much all the time.”
Turner’s penchant for partying is believed to have factored into the split, and a source said the pair have “very different lifestyles.”
Turner is suing Jonas to return their two daughters to England.
The actress claims she found out her estranged husband filed for divorce “through the media.“
Jonas blasted the lawsuit, saying it goes against an “amicable co-parenting setup.”
The Jonas Brothers frontman, 34, filed for divorce from the “Dark Phoenix” actress, 27, in Miami after four years of marriage, according to court documents obtained by Pvnew.
In the filing, Jonas stated that his marriage was “irretrievably broken.”
Though the “Sucker” singer noted that his 3-year-old and 1-year-old daughters with Turner have been primarily living with him, he is seeking “shared parental responsibility.”
The estranged couple should have no problem when it comes to their assets due to an “ironclad” prenup that they reportedly signed weeks before their wedding.
Joe will “keep all of his royalties from the music” he made with his brothers Kevin Jonas and Nick Jonas, per the Blast, as well as what he earned with his other band, DNCE.
Turner, on the other hand, will keep the money she made from “Game of Thrones” and “any residuals from her acting career.”
The “X-Men: Apocalypse” star and the Grammy nominee will also keep any properties that they individually purchased before they said “I do.”
The only one that will be split between the couple will be their marital home.
This sudden change in relationship status may come as a surprise, as reports of their impending split over “serious problems” only surfaced a few days ago.
It was then that fans noticed the “Cake by the Ocean” singer had not been wearing his wedding band during recent performances. Additionally, the “Do Revenge” star had been noticeably absent from her husband’s gigs.
