Sophie Turner Hated Being Joe Jonas' Wife But Loved Taylor Swift For Helping He Through Her Divorce

Summary

• Sophie Turner hated being known as just "one of the Jonas brothers' wives" and felt overlooked in her marriage.
• Turner credited Taylor Swift with being her hero and helping her find a safe space during her challenging divorce.
• The Jonas wives, Turner, Danielle Jonas, and Priyanka Chopra were often grouped together, leading to feelings of inferiority.

After Game of Thrones ended, Sophie Turner remained busy between amassing her fortune, marrying the pop music star Joe Jonas, and becoming a mother. Sadly, Turner's marriage to the second-richest Jonas Brother ended and she went mostly silent.

Months later, Turner gave an amazing interview in which she revealed what she hated about being Joe Jonas' wife. During the same interview, Turner explained how Taylor Swift, who once dated Joe Jonas herself, helped her move on from her divorce.

This article will reveal why Sophie Turner resented an aspect of being married to Joe Jonas. Then, the article will look at how Taylor Swift helped Turner during her divorce, which was a very low moment for the former Game of Thrones star.

Sophie Turner "Hated" Being Known As One Of The Jonas Brothers' Wives

In May 2024, Sophie Turner broke her silence after several months when she spoke to British Vogue about her divorce. During the resulting conversation, Turner was extremely frank about everything she'd been through during her marriage and the process of getting divorced.

In one portion of the interview, Turner revealed something that may surprise many observers. As Turner explained, she hated being known as one of the Jonas Brothers' wives, alongside Danielle Jonas and Priyanka Chopra.

“There was a lot of attention on the three brothers, and the wives. Well, we were always called the wives, and I hated that. It was kind of this plus-one feeling."

Oftentimes when people get divorced, it seems like there is a natural interest in both divorcees blaming their former spouses for everything. With that in mind, it wouldn't be too shocking if Turner blamed Joe Jonas for becoming known as one of the Jonas wives.

What was the timeline of Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas' relationship, according to People?

However, during Turner's interview with British Vogue, she went out of her way to say that Joe Jonas wasn't to blame for how people spoke about her during their marriage.

"And that’s nothing to do with him – in no way did he make me feel that – it was just that the perception of us was as the groupies in the band.”

During Turner and Joe Jonas' marriage, she was often seen alongside her sisters-in-law on social media. Turner, Chopra, and Danielle Jonas also appeared in public together many times.

The most notable examples of the three Jonas Brothers' wives being seen together were from the music videos for "Sucker" and "What a Man Gotta Do". Turner, Chopra, and Danielle Jonas also were seen dancing together in the crowd when The Jonas Brothers performed at The Billboard Music Awards in 2019.

Since the three women supported The Jonas Brothers together, it makes sense that people began talking about them as a trio. However, it is completely understandable that Turner would come to resent that over time.

After Joe Jonas filed for divorce, many observers wondered if Priyanka Chopra and Danielle Jonas would comment on the situation. While that didn't happen, many people felt it spoke volumes when Buzzfeed News reported that Chopra and Turner unfollowed each other in October 2023.

After all, Turner certainly wasn't defined by her marriage to Joe Jonas and neither were Chopra or Danielle Jonas.

Sadly, it turns out that another Jonas wife was upset by the trio being grouped together.

In July 2023, Danielle Jonas made an appearance on the "LadyGang" podcast. During the resulting conversation, Danielle Jonas revealed how being grouped in with Turner and Chopra sometimes made her feel inferior.

“And that’s where it’s like, ‘Oh, I wanna have something else to my name too.’ So that it feels … I don’t know, more than or like the other girls. ‘Cause then when I’m with the other girls, I feel just less than sometimes. It’s weird.”

Sophie Turner Says Taylor Swift Was Her 'Hero' Amid Her Divorce

During Sophie Turner's aforementioned May 2024 British Vogue interview, she spoke about how hard her divorce was on her. More specifically, Turner reflected on how devastating it was to have the media and observers judging her as a mother in the days after the divorce was announced. “I mean, those were the worst few days of my life.”

Given that she was being harshly judged and her marriage was ending, anyone would have struggled if they were in Turner's shoes at that time. Fortunately for Turner, however, a mega-famous music superstar offered her a lifeline.

As Turner explained to British Vogue, she was looking for a place to stay in New York after her split from Joe Jonas. At that moment, Turner reached out to someone she'd met years earlier, Taylor Swift.

When Turner reached out to Swift, she asked the pop superstar if she knew anyone who was looking to rent a place in New York. According to Turner, Swift responded by letting the former Game of Thrones star stay at her New York home for free.

Turner told British Vogue that Swift's act of kindness was a huge deal for her. “Taylor was an absolute hero to me this year.” Swift went on to explain how much she will always appreciate what Swift did for her.

“I’ve never been more grateful to anyone than I am for her because she took my children and me, and provided us with a home and a safe space. She really has a heart of gold.”
