Sophie Turner opened up about going through “media hell” during her divorce from Joe Jonas while appearing on the Aug. 14 episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers.
The Game of Thrones actress, 29, reflected on filming her new thriller Trust in 2024 while her high-profile divorce was making headlines.
“I’m not sure if anyone’s aware, but when I started shooting this movie, I was going through, like, a media hell,” Turner told host Seth Meyers.
She said the film became therapeutic during that difficult time.
“So this was super cathartic because I wanted to run away in my real life when that was all happening. But I got to do it in a movie and I got to smash some s— up, so that was fun.”
Divorce Timeline and Settlement
Jonas, 36, filed for divorce in September 2023 after four years of marriage. Court documents stated “the marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken.”
The former couple issued a joint statement shortly after, saying they had “mutually decided” to “amicably end” their marriage.
Turner and Jonas reached a settlement agreement in September 2024. While the terms remain confidential, court documents indicate the agreement is “in the best interests of the parties and this family.”
Co-Parenting Arrangement
A source told PEOPLE exclusively in July 2025 that the former pair had hit a “peaceful groove” as long-distance co-parents.
The source said Turner and Jonas had “gotten into a co-parenting rhythm that really works” regarding their daughters, Willa, 5, and Delphine, 3.
“There’s a mutual respect now, and the girls are their priority.”
The source noted they’ve maintained an amicable relationship despite living on different continents. “Things between them are better than it’s ever been since their split.”
New Film Details
Turner’s new thriller Trust follows a Hollywood actress who retreats to a remote cabin after a scandal, only to find herself trapped in a survival game.
The film required Turner to work alongside real rats and cockroaches, which she described as challenging during her Late Night appearance.
“Honestly, it was foul. We had rats and cockroaches on the same day. Worst day of my career.”
Trust releases in select theaters on Aug. 22.
