A Florida judge has declared Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner divorced, signing off on a confidential agreement between the former couple.
The Miami-Dade County judge approved the agreement on Friday, one year after the Jonas Brothers singer filed to divorce the Game Of Thrones and X-Men actress - five years after the two were married.
Their split briefly became acrimonious and looked headed for a long and ugly custody fight.
The documents said that moderated negotiations led to an agreement on splitting assets, spousal support and custody of their two daughters, four-year-old Willa and two-year-old Delphine.
Judge Gina Beovides declared that the marriage was "irretrievably broken", and that the couple's agreement, especially their parenting plan, was in the best interest of the family.
The couple met through Instagram messages and began dating in 2016. They married in a secretive ceremony at a Las Vegas wedding chapel in May 2019 after the Billboard Music Awards. Country duo Dan + Shay performed at the wedding.
Jonas filed for divorce in September 2023. In the filing, he sought joint custody and said the two had a pre-nuptial agreement.
The following day the two posted an identical amicable statement to each of their Instagram accounts.
However, the split turned into a serious dispute within weeks when Turner sued to force Jonas to turn over the girls’ passports so they could join her in her native England.
The daughters, who were born in the US but have dual citizenship, were with Joe Jonas in New York, where he was on tour, according to court documents, in which Turner said they had been planning on raising the girls together in England when their marriage fell apart.
Turner said she learned of Jonas’ divorce filing through the media, while Jonas said the two had had multiple conversations about it.
The custody fight was dropped in January, a sign that the two were on a path to a settlement.
Turner, who is from Northampton in the UK, played Sansa Stark for eight seasons on HBO’s Game Of Thrones and played Jean Grey in 2016’s X-Men: Apocalypse and 2019’s Dark Phoenix.
Arizona-born Jonas came to fame with brothers Nick and Kevin in a band starting in 2005 and subsequent Disney Channel series. Last year, they released their sixth studio album and toured US stadiums.
The trio played Dublin's 3Arena on Tuesday night and performed U2's I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For. They also played a cover version of Dreams by The Cranberries at their Belfast show the night before.
