A judge in New York on Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit that the English actress Sophie Turner filed last year against her husband, Joe Jonas, in which she requested that their two young children be returned to England from the United States.<\/p>\n
The lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York was dismissed with both parties\u2019 consent, according to a court filing.<\/p>\n
Turner, a star on the television show \u201cGame of Thrones<\/a>,\u201d sued Jonas, an American musician who plays in a boy band with his brothers<\/a>, in September, weeks after the couple said publicly that they planned to divorce.<\/p>\n That summer, the children had traveled to the U.S. with Jonas because he was on tour there and Turner had a busy filming schedule in Britain, according to the lawsuit<\/a>. The couple agreed that Turner would pick up the children in September and return with them to England, it said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Instead, the lawsuit said, Jonas filed for divorce in September and later refused to give Turner the children\u2019s passports, preventing them from returning to England, their \u201chabitual residence.\u201d<\/p>\n A representative for Jonas said at the time that giving Turner the children\u2019s passports would have violated a court order in Florida \u2014 where the couple\u2019s divorce proceedings had been initiated \u2014 that restricted both parents from relocating the children.<\/p>\n In the court filing on Wednesday, known as a consent order, Judge Katherine Polk Failla noted that Turner and Jonas had signed a memorandum of understanding and a \u201cparenting plan\u201d related to their children in October. They also filed a consent order with a court in Britain that was approved on Jan. 11, she wrote.<\/p>\n Attorneys and publicists for Turner and Jonas did not immediately respond to requests for comment late Wednesday.<\/p>\n The couple\u2019s children, who were born in the United States in 2020 and 2022, have American and British citizenship. They have been identified in court documents by only their initials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Turner and Jonas began dating in 2016, when he was touring in Britain, and married in Las Vegas<\/a> three years later.<\/p>\n After living a \u201cvery peripatetic lifestyle\u201d for a few years, Turner\u2019s lawsuit said, they relocated to England in April 2023 and had planned to buy a home there later in the year.<\/p>\n But in early September, after a succession of negative news stories<\/a> about Turner, they said in a joint statement<\/a> on Instagram that they had \u201cmutually decided to amicably end our marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Seamus Hughes contributed research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
