Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have reportedly been living separate lives for months.
The Jonas Brothers star and the Game of Thrones actress confirmed their split in a statement shared to Instagram on Wednesday.
They wrote: “After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage.”
“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 former couple added.
According to PEOPLE, news of the pair’s split has not come as a surprise to the people around them, as they have reportedly spent “the whole summer apart”.
A source told the outlet that Joe and Sophie “haven’t gotten along in a while, but they’re hoping to resolve this all amicably.”
The insider said: “As far as custody goes, this literally all just happened, so they’re figuring it out in real time. They did have a prenup. As a family, they were based in Florida.”
“The kids were with him the last few months, traveling with him with family while he’s been on tour. Sophie’s been working in the UK.”
Joe, 34, filed for divorce from the Game of Thrones actress, 27, on Tuesday – stating that “the marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken”.
Fans feared the couple were heading for a divorce when the pair recently sold their Miami mansion.
Joe was also recently spotted out and about without his wedding ring.
Joe and Sophie famously tied the knot in Las Vegas following the Billboard Music Awards in May 2019.
One month later, the couple hosted a second ceremony at Château de Tourreau in Sarrians, France.
The pair share two children – a three-year-old daughter named Willa and another daughter, whose name has not yet been revealed, that they welcomed last year.
Joe and Sophie’s statement about their split came after the MailOnline reported that she “felt trapped” in their marriage, and “isn’t ready” for the settled life her husband wanted.
A friend told the publication: “Sophie feels like she’s only just waking up to what her life and reality really is.
“She became famous at a very young age, then married and had kids at a young age and never really had the teenage years of sleeping around and just having carefree fun with friends.”
“She feels like her life has stalled after Game of Thrones and so has her personal life. Since the kids came along, she’s feeling trapped,” the insider continued.
“She’s the only person in her tight friendship group who is married with two children.”
“Now she feels that she wants to make up for the time she’s lost as a young person. He (Joe) wants a more settled life but she’s not ready for that because she feels that she’s not even had a teen or young adult life.”
