Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas divorce narrative

Just watching this unfold over the last few days starting with they were filing for divorce which happens to a lot of people, but noticed the narrative is moving towards how Joe has been looking after their children all summer, he tried to save the marriage and it's down to her partying and painting things quite negatively for Sophie Turner.

Obviously I have no idea what's going on with either side but does look like she's being portrayed as the villain here and him the good guy , I know this is probably a lot to do press spin on things. She's been working away in UK and it would be quite normal for him to 'parent' their children while she's away ( (and hardly qualifies for father of the year, just their father.)

Such a weird turn of events that he's suddenly photographed with his children ... Quelle supris!

accountpasswordaboutyou · 08/09/2023 16:58

He's so transparent. They'll probably be all photographed going to church next.

He's completely fake.

Hope Sophie has her friends and family around her, because this divorce is getting nasty.

Absolutely. Disingenuous asshole

I have (for my sins) read the articles and so far, most of the posts I've seen in the comments section, are #TeamSophie.

Could be because ST is English and it's a British publication. Or it could be because he's a complete prat.

I ❤️ the bit about him deleting all her photos. Dick.

Taylor Swift has always let her songs do the talking...

Spongeeater · 08/09/2023 22:17

What did TS say about him?

And why was he watching the ring camera??? Weirded out by that!

Screams that he was monitoring her behaviour, cos you don't just randomly check footage on such a camera like this.

I suspect he's getting a hard time because of the history with Taylor Swift. It just makes him look insincere. Lyrics:

Mr. "Perfect face"
Mr. "Here to stay"
Mr. "Looked me in the eye and told me you would never go away"
Everything was right

Mr. "I've been waiting for you all my life"
Mr. "Every single day until the end, I will be by your side"
But that was when I got to know Mr. "Change of heart"
Mr. "Leaves me all alone, " I fall apart
It takes everything in me just to get up each day
But it's wonderful to see that you're okay

Hello, Mr. "Perfectly fine"
How's your heart after breaking mine?
Mr. "Always at the right place at the right time, " baby

Hello Mr. "Casually cruel"
Mr. "Everything revolves around you"
I've been Ms. "Misery" since your goodbye
And you're Mr. "Perfectly fine"
Mr. "Never told you why"
Mr. "Never had to see me cry"
Mr. "Insincere apology so he doesn't look like the bad guy"
He goes about his day
Forgets he ever even heard my name
Well, I thought you might be different
Than the rest, I guess you're all the same

'Cause I hear he's got his arm 'round a brand-new girl
I've been picking up my heart, he's been picking up her
And I never got past what you put me through
But it's wonderful to see that it never fazed you

So dignified in your well-pressed suit
So strategized, all the eyes on you
Sashay your way to your seat
It's the best seat, in the best room
Oh, he's so smug, Mr. "Always wins"
So far above me in every sense
So far above feeling anything
And it's really such a shame
It's such a shame

'Cause I was Ms. "Here to stay"
Now I'm Ms. "Gonna be alright, someday"
And someday, maybe you'll miss me
But by then, you'll be Mr. "Too late"
Goodbye, Mr. "Perfectly fine"

Narcissist creep. Out 'parenting' with the nanny. Cos he won't know how to change a nappy without one.

It's so easy to see through the Jonas PR in this sad case, isn't it. Team Sophie all the way. Hope she comes back home with her kids and re-establishes her career.

so many articles in support of ST now. It’s actually really refreshing to see so many press outlets come out and expose JJ bullshit narratives.

But if it's true from different news sources, that she wants to party more than actually be a parent, then why be a parent ?

MeinKraft · 09/09/2023 22:35

Rule 1 of everything, ever, it's always the woman's fault.

I disagree with that one, but it doesn't help if she's putting partying before parenting

But she isn't.

You only have Joe's word for that.

Ah I see, I had presumed it was her being at X celebrities parties etc

Why would you presume that?

More likely is that you just wanted to put her down and side with the man as usual.

Firstly I would appreciate you not to presume my thoughts on the actress.
She was excellent in game of thrones and various films.

I based my presumption on different newspaper headlines without reading the details.
My perspective then based of that presumption was yes if you want to party then party, but then why have kids if you just want to party.

Rounee · 09/09/2023 22:50

No from my reading the information.

Joe wanted another kid, but she didn't want another.
She was uncomfortable after the last baby, but Joe made her go to celebrity functions.

Joe didn't want her to go back to work and wanted her to be a stay at home mum,having more babies.
She has been with the kids full time until very recently when she started her work.

Had her kids with her until very recently in the UK. Joe took them for a short while, while she is working and now spun the narrative she's a party animal.

With that context I offer my apologies for my presumptions and I appreciate the corrections in my information

PepeLePugh · 09/09/2023 22:56

There is no "evidence" that ST has put partying before her children. The only photos the tabloids have thrown up are pictures of her enjoying some drinks at the wrap party for the tv series she has been filming and a couple from a hen weekend. She is far from falling out of nightclubs so pissed that she has her knickers on the wrong way round! Not that I have ever done that of course.

Joe Jonas is a weasel of a man and coordinated the filing of the divorce papers with a PR war against her when she was not in the country and had left her kids for presumably the first time in years so that he can pretend he is super dad for just being...a dad.

His glittery trousers make me want to vomit.

i must admit, ive not studied any of this in detail, much apricated for the context and perspectives

Spongeeater · 09/09/2023 23:30

I hope she's okay and wish her well. If he's using these tactics in public what is he doing in private?

MessyMyrtle · 10/09/2023 02:09

Hopefully the tabloids won’t turn against her. It’s a game they tend to
play.
