After surprising us with a secret wedding in Las Vegas earlier in May, Sophie Turner recently opened up about the entire experience of getting married to Joe Jonas. The Game of Thrones actor, in an interview with UK’s The Times, revealed that she and the Sucker singer broke up one day before their wedding.
Describing it as the worst day of her life, here’s what she said:
“It was the worst day of our lives. For a second we both had cold feet, then 24 hours later we were both like, ‘Never mind.’”Sophie Turner, Actor
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s wedding in Las Vegas was a highly secretive affair. In fact, had it not been for DJ Diplo’s Instagram stories we probably would not have found out until much later. DJ Diplo, during their wedding, took to Instagram to share a story, wherein Sophie Turner is seen in a white dress, entering a Vegas chapel with Jonas and his brothers, who are dressed in suits. “Gonna hit up this wedding real quick,” Diplo captioned the clip. Later, the news was confirmed by a media publication.
Later videos from Diplo's Instagram showed the Game of Thrones star walking down a aisle, surrounded by friends and fellow BBMA attendees, like singer Khalid. Sophie Turner’s bridal ensemble was complete with a veil and a bouquet, as country stars Dan + Shay played their hit "Speechless." Joe’s brothers and Priyanka Chopra were also present at the wedding.
On 19 May, Sophie Turner bid an emotional goodbye to her Game of Thrones character Sansa Stark on Instagram. In a recent interview with New York Times, she also reacted to the general criticism towards Game of Thrones series finale as well as the petition that demands Game of Thrones be re-written with “competent writers”.
