    Joe Jonas has described his post-divorce relationship with ex-wife Sophie Turner as a "beautiful co-parenting" experience

    Offering rare insight into how the pair are raising their children together the 35-year-old singer made the remarks during a live appearance on Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast tour, where he spoke about their two daughters, Willa, aged four, and Delphine, two.


    He said in a TikTok clip from the event: "Having an incredible mum, Sophie, for those girls is like a dream come true.

    "As young girls, looking up to great women is what I want for them. I think what values I want for them are to be open-minded and have a big heart."

    Joe added he hopes Willa and Delphine "be able to walk into any room and feel confidence and know that they can do literally anything they want."

    Joe and Sophie, 29, began dating in 2016 and became engaged the following year.

    They married in 2019 before welcoming Willa in 2020 and Delphine in 2022.

    Their separation was announced in 2023 after four years of marriage.

    The couple's break-up then became publicly contentious when Sophie filed a lawsuit claiming that Joe had "wrongfully removed" their children from England.

    A spokesperson for Joe described the legal filing at the time as a "serious abuse" of the legal system.

    Despite the conflict, the couple reached a temporary agreement through mediation in October 2023, vowing to resolve their separation privately.

    But in March 2024, Sophie reactivated divorce proceedings and their split was finalised in September 2024.

    Joe has since been romantically linked to 33-year-old model Stormi Bree and 28-year-old actor Laila Abdallah.

    Speaking on a TalkShopLive stream earlier this year, he described dating again as "scary and intimidating".

    Sophie, meanwhile, was reportedly in a relationship with 29-year-old aristocrat Peregrine Pearson.

    The pair were last seen together earlier this year, but speculation about a split emerged in April.

    Sophie recently appeared to show public support for Joe's new solo project, 'Music for People Who Believe in Love', by posting a message of encouragement on Instagram.

    "Go go @joejonas," she wrote in a caption, alongside a link to the album.
