Actress Sophie Turner, notably a star of HBO hit book-to-television adaptation “Game Of Thrones”, has spoken out on her divorce from musician Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers.
After several rumors and claims from anonymous sources already allege that Turner’s lifestyle choices are to blame, Turner is setting the record straight. In an Instagram post, the actress confirmed that it was a mutual decision.

The pair wished for privacy amid the divorce for the sake of their two young children. Turner turned off the comments on the post.
Social Media Reactions
The couple often shared humorous glimpses into their relationship, leading fans to be disappointed at the news of their separation. Immediately, the news divided fans of the actor and the ex Disney Channel star turned musician. Some suspected that Jonas simply married Turner when she was too young and the pair were at different phases of life, while others sense that one of them must have cheated on the other.
Elsewhere, some remind onlookers to not believe every anonymous statement they see online, and that all the public has at this point is the divorce petition and Turner’s Instagram post.

Elsewhere, fans of Turner are reflecting upon the couple’s relationship timeline. Some feel that Jonas did not support Turner enough during her new motherhood, as she took a hiatus from acting shortly after having her first child.
Joe Jonas started dating Sophie Turner when she was 19, marry her at 23, knocked her up at 24. She was just finishing Game Of Thrones, she hardly worked these years and follow him on tours. Like he's giving zero support husband vibe.

The Theories
Meanwhile, another anonymous source told TMZ that the divorce was filed for when Jonas caught Turner saying or doing something on a ring camera on their property. Turner declined to comment on the matter. The publication continues to platform sources that claim Turner is at fault for the divorce, leading many to accuse them of a bias, and accuse Jonas’ team of slander.

Meanwhile, Buzzfeed pulled all of Turner’s quotes about being a self described “home body” who claimed that Jonas was actually the “social butterfly.” The story is jogging the memories of fans of both parties, leading to further confusion about a reason for the divorce. Many are questioning the reliance on anonymous sources from both TMZ and Page Six.
Quite frankly, I don’t believe anything Page Six says anymore. All they do is make stuff up for a headline and clicks…

Some begin to suspect that Jonas is actually at fault for the divorce, and the negative press surrounding Turner is an attempted cover up.
i’m actually very happy that we don’t let this kind of thing fly anymore. as soon as these headlines started coming out the story was not “sophie turner bad mother” it was “joe jonas bitter misogynist getting out ahead of a bad story”. growth ???? https://t.co/SmSk8Hnyln

Additionally, fans of acclaimed singer-songwriter Taylor Swift continue to crack jokes about the situation. Jonas dated Swift when they were teenagers in the early 2000s, and Swift famously wrote “Mr. Perfectly Fine”, “Last Kiss”, “Better Than Revenge”, and “Forever And Always” on her “Fearless” and “Speak Now” albums about the relationship. Turner is a longtime fan and friend of Swift.

Neither of Jonas’ brothers and bandmates, Nick and Kevin Jonas, have commented on the divorce at this time. The Jonas Brothers are currently still on tour. Joe Jonas is yet to issue his own statement, though Turner claimed hers was a joint message.
