New Delhi: It’s a family drama like any other. Nick and Priyanka Jonas are reportedly being asked to choose sides after the split of Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner. As per a report by Life & Style, Priyanka adores Sophie as well as Joe and their two daughters – Willa, 3, and Delphine, 1 – and wants them in her life. But since Joe and Sophie’s divorce is anything but amicable, Priyanka is having a tough time dealing with it
“Sophie and Joe kept a lot of their friends separate, but a few are caught in the middle of this mess,” a source told the portal, adding that Priyanka Chopra, in particular, is having a tough time navigating the breakup and custody battle. “She and Sophie were very close. There was once a time when Sophie thought she and Joe would move to London and so would Nick and Priyanka. Priyanka loves Sophie and her nieces and doesn’t want to do anything to jeopardise them being in her life,” the source said.
They tied the knot in 2019 after nearly three years of dating. Last month, at the time of their split, each posted a joint statement on their social media accounts regarding the end of their four-year marriage. “Statement from the two of us: After four wonderful years of marriage, we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage,” they both shared on Instagram.
“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,” the statement concluded.
Joe and Sophie have turned to mediation to work through the custody battle for their two children. According to a report by People, in a hearing earlier this week, Sophie and Joe’s lawyers had revealed that they will start a four-day mediation on Wednesday to resolve issues in their divorce, including establishing custody and a parenting plan for their two daughters. Sophie sued Joe for wrongful retention of their kids, alleging that he was withholding their children’s passports and not allowing them to return to her native England.
