Quick Scoop: Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner split in 2023 after four years of marriage, and the breakup turned into a public custody and relocation dispute before later cooling into a more cooperative co-parenting relationship.

What happened

Joe filed for divorce in September 2023, saying the marriage was “irretrievably broken,” and both sides initially faced a very messy stretch of headlines and legal filings.

One major flashpoint was custody: Sophie sued, arguing the children should be returned to England, while Joe’s side said they were working through the situation.

Where it stands now

By 2025, reporting said the two had reached a better place and were focused on co-parenting their daughters, with Joe describing the relationship as “beautiful” or “great” in interviews.

Sophie also spoke publicly in 2024 about the split as “incredibly sad,” but said she could not discuss the legal details much while that process was ongoing.

Simple timeline

  1. 2016–2019: They met, dated, and married.
  1. September 2023: Joe filed for divorce.
  1. Later in 2023: A custody fight and passport dispute played out publicly.
  1. 2024–2025: Both described the breakup as painful, but later reports said co-parenting improved.

Bottom line

So, the short version is: they divorced, had a very public custody dispute, and eventually shifted into a more stable co-parenting setup.

TL;DR: They split in 2023, the breakup got messy in court, and things later became more amicable for the sake of their kids.
