Singer Joe Jonas and actress Sophie Turner have confirmed their split.
Following days of speculation their four-year marriage was over, the couple issued a joint statement on social media on Wednesday.
“After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage,” the statement said.

“There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.”
Rumours first started swirling over the weekend of the couple’s split, with reports Jonas had engaged a high profile divorce lawyer.

The following day, 34-year-old Jonas posted a picture on social media still wearing his wedding ring in what appeared to be a pointed post.
While Turner’s most recent posts on social media were loved-up snaps of the 27-year-old backstage with her husband at the Jonas Brothers’ New York concert.

However reports continued that the pair had been “living separate lives” for months before the couple confirmed it’s over.
They began dating in 2016, after messaging each other via Instagram, with Jonas inviting the Game of Thrones actress to a bar while he was touring in the UK.
“We had a lot of mutual friends, and they’d been trying to introduce us for a long time,” Turner explained in a 2019 interview with Harper’s Bazaar UK.
“We were following each other on Instagram and he direct-messaged me one fine day, out of the blue.”
They got engaged in 2017, soon after going Instagram official, with Jonas posting a photo to his account showcasing Turner wearing her new engagement ring, with the caption reading “she said yes”.
The couple then had not one but two weddings in 2019.
First, the pair tied the knot in Las Vegas after attending the Billboard Music Awards.
They exchanged vows in front of a small group of family and friends during a ceremony led by an Elvis Presley impersonator.
News of their wedding first came to light when DJ – and wedding guest – Diplo posted a series of photos and videos from inside the venue. A representative for Turner later confirmed to media that the pair had indeed wed.
The Game of Thrones star and the singer wed again in a lavish ceremony that took place at the picturesque Château de Tourreau in the south of France, according to Elle magazine.

Turner gave fans a glimpse into the wedding a few days later, when she posted a black and white photo of the couple from their big day to Instagram.
“Mr and Mrs Jonas,” she captioned the shot.
Maise Williams, Turner’s co-star in the hit TV franchise, reportedly served as her maid of honour, while Jonas’ brothers and bandmates Nick and Kevin were also present at the French soiree.
The couple have two daughters together – welcoming Willa in 2020 and another in July 2022.
The second daughter’s name has not been made public but her initials are DJ according to the divorce documents filed.
