Jonas, 34, reportedly made the request to end his marriage to the Game of Thrones actress, 27, today in paperwork submitted to a Miami Dade County courtroom, with reports citing Turner’s excessive partying as a factor in the split, reports news.com.au.
It certainly seems the break up was non-amicable, with the Jonas Brothers singer deleting nearly all of his Instagram photos of Turner and hiring celebrity lawyer Tom Sasser, who represented US golfer Tiger Woods in his split.
An insider told TMZ that the couple had “different lifestyles”, with Jonas preferring to “stay at home” and Turner enjoying nights out on the town.
“It just kept building, and Joe finally reached a point where he felt that he had exhausted all options to salvage the marriage.”
The divorce filing comes just two days after it was reported that Jonas and Turner’s marriage was on the rocks, however, the Cake by the Ocean singer was seen wearing his wedding ring at his Texas show amid split rumours.
The couple seemed in good spirits as little as three weeks ago, when Turner took to Instagram to praise her hubby after attending the Jonas Brothers’ concert in New York. The actress was seen holding hands with Jonas, wearing bracelets with his name on them and crying happy tears in the crowd as he sang to her in a serenade.
Jonas said elsewhere in the documents that his two daughters with Turner – 3-year-old Willa and a 1-year-old whose name is not known – had been mostly living with him in Miami.
Jonas revealed that the kids had been with him in “other locations throughout the United States”, suggesting their children moved with him while he was on his US tour.
The divorce filings, seen by multiple outlets such as People and TMZ, also detail the couple’s prenuptial agreement.
According to the contract, Jonas will “keep all royalties from the music” that he’s written with his brothers, Nick and Kevin Jonas in the Jonas Brothers, as well as his previous band, DNCE.
Turner is set to keep her earnings from appearing on eight seasons of Game of Thrones, as well as “any residuals from her acting career”.
What’s more, Jonas and Turner sold their shared home in Miami at the beginning of August for a reported $US15 million ($25 million), which saw the couple profit $US4 million ($6.8 million) after buying the property in 2021.
