“ Taylor was an rank hero to me this year . "
Sophie Turneris grateful for Taylor Swift’s help and support amid herdivorce from Joe Jonas.
Sophie and Joe had been married for four years and welcomed two daughters, Willa, 3, and Delphine, 1, before splitting in September 2023.
As you’ll remember, Taylor seemed to be one of the main people by Sophie’s side in the immediate aftermath of the split and the subsequentcustody battle,taking Sophie to dinnerand out ongirls' nights.
It was alsoreportedthat she had loaned Sophie her NYC apartment as she and Joe tried to figure out a custody arrangement for their kids.
In a new interview with British Vogue, Sophieconfirmedthat Taylor had indeed loaned her her apartment and thanked the singer for creating that “safe space” for her.
“Taylor was an absolute hero to me this year,” she told the outlet.
Sophie said she had reached out to Taylor, whom she’sknownsince at least 2019 and who, interestingly, also once dated Joe, last September when she was inNew Yorkto see if Taylor knew of a place she could rent. To her surprise, Taylor offered Sophie her place for free. “I’ve never been more grateful to anyone than I am for her because she took my children and me, and provided us with a home and a safe space,” Sophie continued.
“She really has a heart of gold," she added of Taylor.
Sophie also briefly discussed the divorce itself, and while she couldn’t share the cause of it for legal reasons, she said the days immediately after the news broke were “the worst few days of [her] life.”
“I mean, it’s unfathomable the amount of people that will just make shit up and put it up based on a picture,” she continued. “A picture might tell a thousand words, but it’s not my story. It felt like I was watching a movie of my life that I hadn’t written, hadn’t produced, or starred in. It was shocking. I’m still in shock.”
In hindsight, Sophie admitted, “I’m unhappy with the way everything played out, especially when it comes to my children.” But, at the same time, she said, “I think we’re doing the best we can.”
