Actress Sophie Turner moves to dismiss child abduction claim

 January 18, 2024

In a recent development, actress Sophie Turner has requested to withdraw her child abduction accusation against Joe Jonas amidst their ongoing divorce proceedings.

Turner, known for her role in Game of Thrones, is making headlines once more, but this time it's related to her personal life rather than her professional achievements.

She has recently taken legal steps to retract a child abduction complaint she previously filed against her estranged husband, Jonas. This action is part of the broader divorce process that has been unfolding between the two celebrities, as the Daily Mail reported.

Changing dynamics in the Turner-Jonas divorce saga

According to reports from TMZ, the 27-year-old actress approached the judge handling their divorce case, requesting the dismissal of the child abduction claim.

This motion comes after a period of significant disagreement between Turner and Jonas regarding the future residence of their children. Earlier, Turner had accused Jonas of hindering her plans to take their children to the U.K., her home country.

Interestingly, this request by Turner surfaces shortly after she was seen at London's Heathrow Airport, wearing a gold band on her engagement finger.

This sighting fueled speculation about her new relationship with British aristocrat Peregrine Pearson.

It appears that Jonas is in agreement with Turner's recent legal move, as his legal representatives have reportedly joined the motion to dismiss the child abduction claim.

Legal proceedings and the couple's children

While the judge has yet to formally approve Turner's request, the mutual agreement between the actress and Jonas on this issue strongly indicates that it will be granted.

The case, which involves federal courts in New York, began when Turner lodged the child abduction complaint in September 2023. She claimed that Jonas was breaching international law by not allowing their children to accompany her to the U.K.

The children, Willa, three, and Delphine, one, have been at the center of this dispute.

In an attempt to resolve these issues, Jonas and Turner established a custody arrangement in October, following a lawsuit initiated by Turner.

This arrangement permitted each parent to spend two weeks at a time with their daughters, allowing the children to travel between the U.S. and the U.K. until January 2024.

Reaching an agreement and moving forward

As per the custody agreement, Turner has the freedom to take the children to England, which she considers their "forever home."

Jonas, on the other hand, had the opportunity to take the girls on tour with his band, The Jonas Brothers.

This arrangement facilitated Turner spending Christmas with the children in the U.K. with her family, while Jonas was spotted in London in December, leading to speculation about his holiday plans with the daughters.

The custody agreement was the outcome of four days of intense mediation in New York, and it was expected to pave the way for finalizing the couple's divorce. The court documents described the mediation as 'ongoing and productive', hinting at an amicable resolution of all disputes.

Reasons behind the separation and new relationships

Jonas initially filed for divorce in Miami on Sept. 1, citing Turner's excessive partying and his resulting solo parenting as reasons.

Despite these challenges, the couple has maintained a relatively low profile since reaching their temporary custody arrangement. Nonetheless, recent developments indicate that both Turner and Jonas are moving on with their lives and new relationships.

Turner confirmed her relationship with Pearson in December, after they were seen together publicly.

Pearson, as the eldest son of Michael Pearson, the fourth Viscount Cowdray, comes from a family with substantial wealth and influence in the media industry. Turner's own considerable fortune is notably overshadowed by her new partner's family wealth.

New beginnings for both Turner and Jonas

Similarly, Jonas seems to be embracing a new chapter in his personal life.

He was spotted on a romantic ski trip in Aspen, Colorado, with Stormi Bree, a pageant queen-turned-model and occasional actress.

This sighting, along with a trip to Mexico's Los Cabos, suggests that Jonas and Bree might be exploring a relationship.

Conclusion

  • Sophie Turner has requested the dismissal of her child abduction claim against Joe Jonas, signaling a potential easing of their divorce proceedings.
  • The couple's legal dispute centered around the custody and future residence of their two young daughters, with recent developments indicating a collaborative approach towards resolving these issues.
  • Both Turner and Jonas appear to be moving on with new romantic interests, while ensuring the welfare of their children remains a priority.
