It seems like the legal battle between Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner over the custody of their two young daughters is far from over. However, that hasn’t stopped both parents from spending quality time with their girls. Recently, Joe was seen in New York City, taking on the role of the responsible dad.
Key Takeaway
Despite the ongoing legal disputes, Joe Jonas is taking his daddy duties seriously and spending quality time with his daughters in New York City.
Quality Time with Willa
Joe was spotted loading his 3-year-old daughter, Willa, into an awaiting SUV in The Big Apple. The father-daughter duo was on their way to a birthday party, although it remains unclear whose special day it was. While Willa was in Joe’s care, there was no sign of their 1-year-old daughter, Delphine, suggesting she may have been with her mother, Sophie.
A Contentious Custody Battle
This outing marks the first time that Joe has been seen out alone with either of his kids since Sophie filed a lawsuit against him over custody. In her legal documents, Sophie alleged that Joe was preventing her from taking the girls to the United Kingdom, despite a prior agreement, claiming that he had hidden their passports.
Joe, on the other hand, defended his actions by stating that he was solely following the judge’s orders. He argued that relocating the children during the ongoing divorce proceedings would not be in their best interest. Eventually, the judge ruled in Joe’s favor, prohibiting either parent from taking Willa or Delphine outside of the greater NYC area.
What Lies Ahead
Aside from the custody battle, there have been reports about Sophie wanting to transfer the divorce case to the United Kingdom. However, no decision has been made on that matter as of yet.
