"With Pri, especially, it’s kind of crazy."
Priyanka Chopra’s brother-in-law Joe Jonas has filed for divorce from Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner.
Sophie allegedly felt trapped in her marriage to Joe Jonas and regretted ‘missing out’ on her youth after tying the knot with him at a young age.
A friend of Sophie’s revealed to MailOnline that the couple started having problems last Christmas and that she separated from him at the start of this summer.
To save the marriage, Joe came to the UK with their children over the summer and spent time in Warwickshire, where Sophie was brought up.
But after failing to work through their differences, he returned to the US.
According to the friend, Sophie also felt increasingly pressurised at being compared to Priyanka Chopra, who is married to Joe’s young brother Nick.
The friend revealed: “His brother’s wife is a lot older and mature, and the family compare Sophie to Priyanka, which has put her under a lot of stress.
“Nick is younger than Joe but is more settled.
“He and Priyanka are on the same page about their careers and family life.
“Joe and his family want him to be in a relationship like this, but Sophie feels that she’s only 27 and hasn’t even really lived because she’s spent all her good, young years working.
“It wasn’t an issue at first but the age gap between Sophie and Joe has become a real problem. They want very different things.”
Opening up to Elle in 2020, Sophie gushed about how much she adores both Priyanka Chopra and her other sister-in-law, Danielle, who is married to Kevin Jonas.
The actress said: “It’s also nice to have built-in girlfriends, who are actually really cool, who I can hang out with and we can really talk to each other about, like, how crazy the boys’ lives are.
“We can relate on so many different levels. It’s like, thank God because you never know.”
She continued: “With Pri, especially, it’s kind of crazy.
“You have to remind yourself that she’s basically had a 20-year career in Bollywood already. She’s like the biggest thing in India right now.
“When we went there for her and Nick’s wedding, we were treated like royalty.”
“They worship her over there. But she’s just the nicest person, and they live, like, 10 minutes away.”
Similarly, Priyanka Chopra thinks highly of Sophie Turner.
Ahead of Sophie and Joe’s wedding in 2019, Priyanka said:
“Sophie is super talented, super funny and we have the most fun when we go out together. She’s incredible.”
There’s every chance the actresses will remain good friends, especially as Sophie and Joe’s divorce appears amicable.
