Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s Infernal Divorce for Dummies

On September 5, CNN confirmed the rumors circulating in Hollywood. After seven years of dating, a high-profile wedding in France in 2019, and two children, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner have decided to split. The next day, the American singer and the British actress released a press release explaining that the split was mutual.
