Joe Jonas is opening up about his children and co-parenting.
The 36-year-old entertainer shares two daughters – Willa, 5, and Delphine, 3 – with ex-wife Sophie Turner.
During a new episode of the Jonas Brothers‘ podcast, Hey Jonas!, Joe talked about co-parenting and more.
“I’m a single dad and I co-parent with my children’s mother,” Joe said. “And so, um, I think my children have given me purpose again in my life. I think having them, the reason I do what I do now, and, you know, you go to work, our work, it happens to be we’re grateful that it’s what we love so much. But also, knowing that I get to work hard if I’m not with them and go back to my shared time where I get to be with them, it makes it so much better to work that much harder.”
“They’ve really given me the reason to be alive,” he continued. “I would say, you know, I think in my saddest moments, I’m able to be reminded quickly that a hug from them can solve the world’s problems in my in my own world, and I know I’m not hyper unique. There’s a lot of people in my situation that are single parents and go through this.”
“I’m grateful that I have a co-parent that I can balance even the bad days, but I think being able to have good people around me to kind of help me navigate it is really special,” Joe shared. “I think they’ve taught me that I’ll be okay even in my toughest days.”
This all stemmed from taking a fan’s question asking them, “What has been one of the most healing things about being a parent?”
