Sophie Turner opens up about the pros and cons of being the wife of a pop star. Nearly eight months after her marriage to Joe Jonas ended, the «Game of Thrones» actress recalled the attention that the Jonas brothers and their spouses received.
«There was a lot of attention on the three brothers and their wives», - Sophie, 28, shared in a new interview with British Vogue published on Wednesday, May 15. «We were always referred to as wives, and I didn’t like that. It was like an extra feeling».
In addition to her relationship with Joe, Sophie felt that the public was also intrigued by Kevin Jonas' marriage to Danielle Jonas and Nick Jonas' relationship with Priyanka Chopra Jonas.
Although she didn’t always like the attention of being a pop star’s wife, Sophie said she doesn’t blame Joe, 34. «It has nothing to do with him — he never made me feel that way», - she explained. «It was just the perception of us as a group within a group».
Another issue Sophie faced during her marriage to Joe was feeling at home. Living in Los Angeles, the actress felt isolated due to the city’s peculiarities. As she explained, «You can’t just randomly meet someone at a bar, you have to drive 40 minutes with the intention of seeing someone».
When Joe and Sophie — who are raising daughters Willa, 3, and Delphine, 22 months — moved to Miami in 2021, the atmosphere was also a bit off.
«We were in this community full of 50-year-old men, so imagine trying to make friends on a dog walk», - Sophie shared. «I just felt like a bird in a gilded cage. It was amazing, yes, but I didn’t have any friends there».
Joe and Sophie announced their divorce after four years of marriage in September 2023. The «X-Men» star has since returned to the UK. Although the couple’s divorce made headlines worldwide, Sophie still has many fond memories when she looks back on her love story with the DNCE frontman.
«It was really surreal», - she said, recalling the beginning of their relationship, «like a fever dream, because he was older than me, and I felt like he cared for me»
