Joe Jonas’ post-divorce solo album, Music for People Who Believe in Love, seemingly has the approval of his ex-wife, Sophie Turner.
“Go go @joejonas,” Turner, 29, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Saturday, May 24, sharing a Spotify link to the record.
Jonas, 35, released his second solo LP on Friday, May 23, featuring many songs about his new normal since he and Turner separated in 2023.
“It was scary at times, and also freeing,” Jonas told Billboard in August 2024 of his decision to write and sing about his private relationship. “I’m not trying to come for anyone on this album. I’m not trying to put stuff on blast. … I’m a happy person, and the music needed to resemble that — but also, the journey to get here.”
He added, “I was going through a lot of life changes, finding out who I was as a person and father and friend, and living under the microscope of what the music industry can be. And I think, at such a crazy time in my life, I looked to music as an outlet.”
Us Weekly confirmed in September 2023 that the Jonas Brothers singer filed for divorce from Turner after four years of marriage. They subsequently went toe-to-toe over custody arrangements of daughters Willa, 4, and Delphine, 2. (The kids have dual citizenship in the United States and Turner’s native England.)
Jonas and the Game of Thrones alum eventually reached a settlement in September 2024, agreeing to share custody.
“After a productive and successful mediation, we have agreed that the children will spend time equally in loving homes in both the U.S. and the U.K.,” the now-exes told Us in a joint statement at the time. “We look forward to being great coparents.”
While Jonas has remained relatively quiet about the breakup and resulting custody battle, Turner called the situation “incredibly sad” in a Harper’s Bazaar profile.
“We had a beautiful relationship, and it was hard,” she recalled last year. “I’m so happy to be back. It felt as if my life was on pause until I returned to England. I just never really feel like myself when I’m not in London, with my friends and family. I was away for so long — six years — and it was when my friends were getting engaged, and when I got pregnant. I went for dinner with someone the other day, and she said, ‘I never got to touch your belly.’ We didn’t have those key experiences with each other.”
Throughout most of their marriage, Turner lived with Jonas in both Los Angeles and Miami.
