Joe Jonas Talks Sophie Turner Coparenting After Divorce
If you can cast your mind back to September 2023, you'll recall that Sophie and Joe's messy breakup dominated the headlines for weeks as the exes butted heads over the custody of their two young daughters, Willa and Delphine, who are now 4 and 2.
For context, Sophie and Joe started dating in 2016 and tied the knot three years later in 2019. After four years of marriage, Joe filed for divorce on September 6, 2023.
Their divorce was eventually finalized in September 2024, and, in spite of all the legal contention, the exes have indicated that they want to maintain an amicable relationship for the benefit of their girls. During a May 2024 Vogue interview, Sophie called Joe a 'great father' and said: 'My dream is to have a huge Christmas where my daughters can have their dad there, Joe's whole side of the family, their grandparents. I don't care about the politics, I just want the girls to feel loved and have everyone show up for them.'
Now, nearly two years after their split, Sophie and Joe are making their support for one another clearer than ever. Speaking during Jay Shetty's On Purpose Live Tour in Hollywood on May 23, Joe gave some sweet insight into the current state of his and Sophie's coparenting relationship, describing her as an 'incredible mom.'
'I have a beautiful coparenting relationship that I'm really grateful for,' he can be heard telling Jay in a clip from the live event. 'Having an incredible mom, Sophie, for those girls is like a dream come true.'
'I think naturally, as young girls, looking up to great women is what I want for them,' he continued. 'I think what values I want for them are to be open-minded and have a big heart, be able to walk into any room and feel confidence, and know that they can do literally anything they want.'
Adorably, the following day, Sophie returned the favor by supporting the release of Joe's new album, Music for People Who Believe in Love, on Instagram. 'Go go @joejonas,' the Game of Thrones star wrote on her IG stories, alongside a photo of the album cover and a Spotify streaming link.

Sydney Sweeney wears denim in social media return, but doesn't address American Eagle ad
Sydney Sweeney returned to Instagram this week (in denim), but she didn't address her controversial American Eagle ad. The "Euphoria" star, 27, took to the social media platform Aug. 13 to promote her 2023 film "Americana" which is now airing in select theaters two years after it was first released. Sweeney – who plays an aspiring country singer Penny Jo Poplin in the flick – captioned the post, "A few years ago I filmed this little movie with some friends and now you get to meet penny jo." She then posted a photo carousel Aug. 15 on the film's release day with a behind-the-scenes look at her personal life, posing in blue denim jeans and a white top. American Eagle breaks silence on Sydney Sweeney jeans ad controversy "Duval diaries," she captioned the post, seemingly a nod to Duval County, Florida. Sweeney owns a home in the state. The images included Sweeney with a group of men and platter of alcoholic shots, posing with a separate group of women, and preparing to sing karaoke with a friend. The Hollywood star has remained mum on the ad backlash, avoiding any public statements to the press or her fans about the incident. On Aug. 1, American Eagle spoke out and doubled down on their ad after days of discourse about the ad campaign in an Instagram post. "'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way," the statement read. "Great jeans look good on everyone." USA TODAY reached out to reps for Sweeney for comment. The marketing campaign courted controversy after social media users argued that the phrase "great genes" paired with a blond-haired, blue-eyed star echoed eugenic ideas — the discredited belief in improving humanity through selective breeding. In one of several videos for the campaign, Sweeney, clad in a denim-on-denim fit, dabbles in some wordplay, telling cameras: "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color." "My jeans are blue," Sweeney said in the video. The fall 2025 denim campaign ends each promotional video with the tagline, "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans." Contributing: Caché McClay

19 Celebs Who Became Famous Much Later In Life
Youth is a hot currency in Hollywood, which makes it all the more remarkable when celebrities find success later in life (even if that "later" would be considered young in other industries). Here are some celebs who prove that hard work pays off. Pedro Pascal Pedro Pascal is a hot commodity right now, at 50 years old — but he nearly quit acting multiple times throughout his 20s and 30s. It wasn't until he landed the role of Oberyn Martell on Game of Thrones when he was in his late 30s that his career really started to take off. Leslie Jones Leslie Jones worked for years to build her stand-up comedy career before she scored a spot on the cast of Saturday Night Live at the age of 47 — becoming the oldest person to join the show as a cast member. Morgan Freeman It seems like Morgan Freeman has been old his whole career — perhaps because he got his big break at age 50, in the movie Street Smart. Before that, he had primarily worked as a stage actor. Jane Lynch Jane Lynch plugged away in minor roles for years and years in films like The 40-Year-Old Virgin, but only became a household name when she landed her breakthrough role of Sue Sylvester in Glee at the age of 49. Samuel L. Jackson Samuel L. Jackson's roles were mostly small for the first part of his acting career, and his profile didn't increase until he was in his 40s. While he appeared in Jungle Fever, Jurassic Park and True Romance, it wasn't until he starred in Pulp Fiction at age 45 that he became a household name. Alan Rickman Alan Rickman was a graphic designer before he decided to pursue acting professionally in his mid-20s. He performed roles in theatre productions and TV for several years, but his breakthrough — and first film — role was as villain Hans Gruber in Die Hard, when he was 42. Ken Jeong Ken Jeong worked as an actual doctor for years, doing bit parts and comedy on the side, when he scored the role of an on-screen doctor in Knocked Up when he was in his late 30s. It was then that he transitioned from medicine to a full-time screen career. Viola Davis Viola Davis had a steady stage career and plenty of minor film and TV roles over the years, but her star really rose when she had a scene-stealing role in the movie Doubt at the age of 43. Steve Carell Steve Carell worked steadily in comedy roles — mainly on late night TV — for years, but he hit the big time and became famous in his 40s when he starred in Anchorman, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and, of course, The Office. Harrison Ford Harrison Ford was famously working as a carpenter to support himself through his early acting career — right up until he landed his big break as Han Solo in Star Wars at the age of 35. Kathy Bates While Kathy Bates already had a successful stage career and had had several on-screen roles, it was her breakout role in the movie Misery when she was 42 that really brought her widespread fame. John Mahoney John Mahoney worked as a teacher and then an editor of a medical journal before he decided to seriously pursue acting in his late 30s. He found success on stage before scoring some small but memorable TV and movie roles, and then achieving widespread recognition as Martin Crane in Frasier at the age of 53. Bryan Cranston Bryan Cranston steadily built up his acting career over the years, taking on plenty of small roles before landing the leading role of Hal on Malcolm in the Middle when he was in his mid-40s, which really put him on the Hollywood map. Ty Burrell Another actor made famous in a dad role, Ty Burrell was a largely unkown actor — having had a string of pretty minor roles — prior to being cast as Phil Dunphy on Modern Family, on which he became one of the standout characters. He was in his early 40s at the time. Octavia Spencer In her early career, Octavia Spencer had many minor roles on screen, but when she starred as Minny in The Help she became a household name at the age of 40. Martha Stewart Her name is now synonymous with lifestyle content, but Martha Stewart worked as a stockbroker and then ran a catering company before she published her first cookbook Entertaining at age 41, which launched her lifestyle entertainment empire. Jon Hamm Jon Hamm was struggling so much to make acting work that he nearly quit. Good thing he didn't, because he finally landed the role that would make his career — the lead, Don Draper in Mad Men — when he was in his mid-30s. Tim Allen The dad effect strikes again. Tim Allen had been working primarily in stand-up comedy when he was cast in the lead role in the family sitcom Home Improvement. He was in his late 30s at the time. Bea Arthur Bea Arthur achieved a lot of success on stage, but it was her breakthrough role at the age of 49 playing Maude Findlay in All in the Family and its spin-off, centred on her, called Maude, that really made her famous.

Selena Gomez Shares Candid Summer Photos With Benny Blanco and More
THE RUNDOWN On Friday, Selena Gomez shared a new carousel of photos on Instagram from her summer, including intimate photos at home and with her fiancé, Benny Blanco. The carousel opened with a stunning picture of Gomez in a pale pink slip with red lace detail around the neckline and hem. She had her hair down and wore a pair of red frame glasses. In the background, Gomez appeared to be watching an episode of How I Met Your Mother. In the photo with Blanco, Gomez is having dinner outside with the music producer and their friends, enjoying a massive plate of oysters and prawns, as well as some cold white wine. The singer included shots promoting various Rare Beauty products, plus scenes from working at home and hanging with pals in the backyard and at events. It seems like it has been a spectacular few months for the Only Murders in the Building star. In the comments, Blanco wrote, 'wait … i'm gonna marry u.' Last weekend, Gomez shared photos with Blanco at the wedding of friends Lil Dicky and Kristin Batalucco. Blanco worked with Dave star Lil Dicky on his show and they have remained close friends. For the event, Gomez wore a sleeveless red halter dress with a mock turtle neckline and a fuzzy black coat. Blanco wore a dark blue suit over a black button-down, open at the neck to reveal his layered gold necklaces. Gomez captioned her carousel of pictures from the ceremony and reception: 'About last nights wedding 💒' She and Blanco have been engaged since December 2024, but on the August 7 episode of the podcast Therapuss with Jake Shane, Gomez shared that the wedding is not happening anytime soon. 'There's so much happening at the moment,' she explained. 'He's working on some projects that he has to wrap up, and we just have things we want to finish and our own personal endeavors before we get into all the nitty-gritty. I just have really never felt so sure about something, and I also don't want to jinx it by saying that.'
