Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner say they have 'mutually decided' to 'end our marriage' as they confirm divorce
- Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner confirmed that they've "mutually decided" to divorce on Instagram.
- "There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision," they wrote.
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner confirmed that they are divorcing in a joint statement posted to Instagram on Wednesday.
"After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage," the post reads.
"There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children," the statement continued.
The post comes after Jonas, 34, filed for divorce from the "Game of Thrones" actor, 27, on Tuesday.
According to Today, the singer filed for a dissolution of marriage on September 5 in Miami, Florida, claiming "the marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken."
TMZ first broke the news of Jonas shopping for a divorce lawyer, reporting that the pair, who have been married four years, have had "serious problems" for months.
He stated in his petition that the couple's two young daughters have been living with him in Miami, Florida, and other locations throughout the US, but stated that he wants to "have shared parental responsibility" with the British actor.
Representatives for Jonas and Turner did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
Turner and Jonas began dating in 2016 when they were 20 and 27, respectively. A year into their relationship, the pair announced their engagement, and they got married in 2019.
They walked down the aisle together twice: first in a Las Vegas ceremony following the Billboard Music Awards which was officiated by an Elvis impersonator and again in Carpentras, France the following month.
In 2020, the couple welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Willa. In 2022, they grew to a family of four with the arrival of their second daughter, whose name they have not publicly shared.
In August, Jonas and Turner sold their beachfront Miami mansion for $15 million. They purchased the six-bedroom, nine-bathroom house for $11 million in 2021.
Since mid-August, Jonas has been touring the US with his brothers Nick and Kevin Jonas on the Jonas Brothers' Five Albums. One Night. The World Tour. The tour is set to carry on into June 2024.
Turner, meanwhile has been in the UK shooting the upcoming British television drama, "Joan" — her first major television series since 2022's "The Staircase" — since May.
