Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner recently opened up about her emotional battle following divorce from popstar Joe Jonas. In a cover story published by British Vogue on May 15, 2024. she also addressed all the rumors of mom-shaming her.
Speaking to journalist Chioma Nnadi in the exclusive interview, she said,
“I mean, those were the worst few days of my life… My kids were in the States and I couldn’t get to them because I had to finish Joan. And all these articles started coming out”.
Referring to rumors of her being a huge partier and a neglectful mother amidst her divorce, Sophie recalled,
“It hurt because I really do completely torture myself over every move I make as a mother—mum guilt is so real! I just kept having to say to myself – None of this is true. You are a good mum and you’ve never been a partier”.
Sophie has still not recovered from all the hurtful speculation. She further added,
“I mean, it’s unfathomable the amount of people that will just make shit up and put it up based on a picture. A picture might tell a thousand words, but it’s not my story… It was shocking. I’m still in shock.”
Fans showered Sophie with supportive comments on British Vogue’s latest Instagram post. One comment read,
“Talented as hell, thoughtful and reflective, a caring and loving mother – you are the full package! Keep killing it!”
Sophie Turner first met Joe Jonas during the latter’s tour in the U.K in 2016. After almost three years of dating, the couple tied the knot in a fun impromptu ceremony on May 1, 2019, in Las Vegas. They followed that up with a much more lavish ceremony in France the next month.
The couple, who share two children together, divorced in September 2023 after four years of marriage.
Despite a difficult divorce, Sophie and Joe are amicably working on co-parenting their children together. Moreover, the actress is working on changing the negative narrative moving forward.
