Joe Jonas has spoken out on rumours surrounding his divorce from Sophie Turner.
The musician was performing in Los Angeles, California, as part of the Jonas Brothers tour with his brothers, Kevin, 36, and Nick, 31.
It was recently confirmed that Joe, 34, is splitting from his actor wife Sophie, 27.

The Camp Rock and Game of Thrones stars married in 2019 and share two daughters together.
On 6 September, they confirmed it in a joint statement after Joe filed for divorce in Miami Dade County, Florida.
Shared to social media, it reads: “After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage.
"There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision, and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children."
Filing documents seen by the Daily Mail, Today.com and TMZ say that their relationship between both parties ‘is irretrievably broken’.
However, since the star couple confirmed their ‘united decision’ to separate, reports have continued with claims about their behaviour that led to it.
But Joe seemingly wanted to take the time to shut down the rumours flying round online about the pair’s separation during the concert.
The singer said to the adoring crowd at the Dodger Stadium: “It’s been a tough week. I just want to say, that if you don’t hear it from these lips don’t believe it. Ok?”
The dad-of-two also added: “Thank you everyone for the love and support to me and my family. Love you guys.”
During the Jonas Brothers shows, Joe has also recently appeared to no longer be wearing his wedding ring, People reports.
At the show, the singer also performed his song ‘Hesitate’ – which was originally written for Sophie.
Back in 2020, he said during the band's documentary, Chasing Happiness, that the song was a 'promise to Sophie'.
"It’s like my vows before I wrote my vows." he said.
The couple first started dating back in 2016 and got engaged the following year. They married in Las Vegas before having another ceremony a few months later in France.
Their two daughters, whose lives they keep private, were born in 2020 and 2022.
According to Joe’s petition, the girls have been living with him most recently.
But in his application for divorce, it says: “It is in the best interests of the minor children that the parties have shared parental responsibility.”
