They were considered a dream couple, but on Monday, October 2, 2023, it was announced that Jodie Turner-Smith37, the divorce from husband Joshua Jackson, 45, filed. The fact that the actress took this step is said to have surprised the “Dawson’s Creek” star. Accordingly, Jackson is currently doing poorly.
Joshua Jackson was blindsided by divorce
Jodie Turner-Smith recently filed for divorce from Joshua Jackson in Los Angeles Superior Court, TMZ reported. The British actress gave “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the marriage and the date of separation was September 13th. According to documents available to the publication, the “Queen & Slim” actress is demanding joint custody of her daughter Juno Rose Diana, 3.
Shortly afterwards, a source told “Us Weekly” that the actor apparently did not consider the marital crisis to be that serious. “Joshua was clearly blindsided by Jodie’s decision to get a divorce,” says the source, adding: “They had their problems, like many other couples (…). But Joshua obviously didn’t realize that bad and Jodie was so unhappy.”
“His heart is broken”
The “The Affair” actor is now heartbroken and is going through a difficult time. “Joshua’s heart is broken because of the impending divorce. He always thought that he would be married, grow old with his family and be happily ever after,” an insider tells the Daily Mail. And further: “He had the dream scenario in his head. Jodie was the person he thought he would be with forever.”
The Canadian also worries about their daughter; he never wanted a separation for little Juno. Nevertheless, the couple will continue to pull together for her. But Joshua Jackson would get back together with Jodie Turner-Smith immediately if she stopped the divorce. However, the Hollywood star has now accepted the end of love. About the reasons for the marriage breakup, the source says: “Nothing terrible happened between the two, such as infidelity. The relationship simply ran its course, it’s a sad time.”
