Sophie Turner<\/b><\/a> is leaning on her friends, including <\/span>Taylor Swift<\/b><\/a>, amid her divorce from her estranged husband, <\/span>Joe Jonas<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n The Game of Thrones<\/em><\/a> alum, 27, was spotted spending time with Taylor, 33, in New York City on Tuesday, September 19. The duo were photographed walking arm in arm as they left Via Carota and headed to Temple Bar for drinks after dinner.<\/p>\n Sophie showed off her abs in a gray crop top with baggy matching pants, while Taylor wore a red mini dress, an oversized denim jacket and brown knee-high boots.<\/p>\n Shortly after the photos began to circulate online, fans rushed to social media to note how much they love their friendship because Taylor previously dated Joe, 34, for three months in 2008. \u201cIt feels good they\u2019re together,\u201d one Twitter user wrote. Another added, \u201cThis photo makes me so happy! Girlfriends stepping up for each other must be celebrated.\u201d<\/p>\n Others poked fun at the situation, with someone writing, \u201cIt\u2019s joever for both of them.\u201d Another admitted, \u201cI honestly didn\u2019t see this coming, they had the opportunity to do the funniest thing and they took it.\u201d<\/p>\n Joe filed for divorce<\/a> after four years of marriage in Miami-Dade County on September 5. The \u201cHesitate\u201d singer cited the reason for their split was because their marriage was \u201cirretrievably broken.\u201d<\/p>\n One day later, the former couple took to Instagram to issue a joint statement<\/a> about their decision to split.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage,\u201d Joe and Sophie wrote on September 6. \u201cThere are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.\u201d<\/p>\n The pair \u2013 who tied the knot in 2019 \u2013 welcomed their eldest daughter, Willa<\/span><\/a>, in July 2020 and their <\/span>second daughter<\/span><\/a> whose name has not yet been revealed in July 2022.<\/p>\n Joe touched on their divorce<\/a> during the Jonas Brothers\u2019 tour stop in Los Angeles on September 9. \u201cIt\u2019s been a tough week \u2026 I just wanna say, if you don\u2019t hear it from these lips, don\u2019t believe it, OK?\u201d he told the crowd at Dodgers Stadium. \u201cThank you everyone for your love and support to me and my family. Love you guys.\u201d<\/p>\n Neither Sophie nor Joe have publicly revealed the reason behind their split, though an insider told In Touch<\/em> that they were facing problems before they filed for divorce<\/a>. They had \u201cbeen having marriage trouble for close to a year,\u201d according to the source.<\/p>\n \u201cSince welcoming their second child [in 2022], they\u2019ve struggled with the demands of parenthood and their careers and balancing all of that with their personal goals,\u201d the insider added.<\/p>\n The source then explained that Sophie and Joe \u201choped they\u2019d find their footing and resolve the issues, but it became too much.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe truth is, neither of them has been happy for some time and they\u2019ve been living separate lives for months,\u201d the insider continued. \u201cThey just reached a point where it wasn\u2019t meshing anymore, and it became painfully apparent that they\u2019re not very well suited for the long term.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
