Joe Jonas Omits Lyric Referencing Sophie Turner During Concert
Joe Jonas’ recent performance at the Festival d’été de Québec has sparked conversation as he notably avoided singing a lyric referencing his ex-wife, Sophie Turner. The omission, while minor, was a nod to the couple’s recent divorce.
Avoiding the Reference
During the Jonas Brothers’ concert on July 6th, Joe skipped the lyric from their 2019 hit “Cool” that mentions Sophie Turner’s iconic role in Game of Thrones.
Instead of singing “Sittin’ there, winnin’ like it’s Game of Thrones,” Joe left out the specific reference. This omission aligns with previous performances where he had steered clear of this particular line.
The Context Behind Joe’s Decision
Joe’s choice to avoid singing about Game of Thrones comes shortly after his divorce from Sophie Turner. Less than a year ago, their marriage was officially deemed “irretrievably broken.”
In a joint statement, the couple revealed their mutual decision to end their four-year marriage amicably, asking for privacy for themselves and their children. This recent concert action highlights Joe’s ongoing sensitivity to the situation.
Legal and Custody Battles
The separation has not been without its challenges. Turner filed a lawsuit against Joe, alleging wrongful detainment of their daughters in New York City while she was in the U.K. Although this suit was dismissed in January 2024, custody arrangements remain a significant focus. The former couple has made a temporary custody agreement and is continuing mediation to resolve their issues amicably.
Since the two separated, Joe and Sophie have moved on with their personal lives. Joe was briefly seen with Stormi Bree, though his busy schedule has kept his romantic life on hold. An insider noted that Joe is currently prioritizing his children and his music career. Meanwhile, Sophie has been spotted with Peregrine “Perry” Pearson and enjoying the new dating experience after marrying young.
