After the divorce lawsuit filed by singer Joe Jonas against his now ex-partner, Sophie Turner, another lawsuit is coming. It is the legal battle for the custody of their daughters, Willa, 3 years old, and Delphine, 1 year old.
Recall that the divorce of both celebrities took a complicated turn for custody issues of their daughters, so, according to insiders, Joe Jonas is willing to cooperate to reach a “fair agreement” for the benefit of the girls.
“Joe is committed to making the mediation with Sophie work and doesn’t want to put up any resistance, as long as they can come to a fair agreement about the kids,” a source told Page Six.
The mediation to reach an agreement will be in several sessions that are expected to last four days in New York City, according to their lawyers, who said in court Tuesday that the ultimate goal is to establish a shared parenting plan for the two daughters of both celebrities.
Why did Sophie Turner sue Joe Jonas for custody of her daughters?
After it became known that Joe Jonas had asked Sophie Turner for a divorce, the actress revealed that her ex-partner kept Willa and Delphine’s passports withheld so that they would not leave the United States, since before their separation they had plans to move their residence to England.
As a result, the actress sued Joe for custody of the girls. Upon seeing the situation, the singer said through his representative that he agreed that Willa and Delphine should grow up in the United States as well as in the United Kingdom.
So far, the custody trial is still in mediation in order to reach an agreement between the two. In the meantime, a federal judge in Manhattan has set a trial date of January 2, 2024, for a resolution to be reached between both parties.
Both Joe and Sophie agreed that the girls would remain in New York while the trial takes place, and until there is an agreement and a verdict from the judge, the actress will not be able to take the girls out of the United States. We will see how this legal battle turns out.
