Jodie Turner-Smith Shares Cryptic Message Amid Joshua Jackson Custody Drama
Jodie Turner-Smith appeared to shade her ex-husband, Joshua Jackson, amid a disagreement between the two over their daughter's schooling. Turner-Smith and Jackson share one child together, a 5-year-old named Juno. Jackson recently filed an emergency custody order modification ― according to documents obtained by People magazine ― over a development in Juno's education. The 'Dawson's Creek' actor alleges that Turner-Smith abruptly changed Juno's school without his permission. 'Jodie is attempting to create a scenario where Juno travels with her rather than attending a traditional school,' Jackson said in the documents. After news broke of the conflict between the two, Turner-Smith shared a post on Instagram that seemed to call out her ex-husband. The post includes animated photos of cartoon villains and reads ''Why don't you like that person? They seem so nice.' You know who else seemed to be nice.' Turner-Smith added her own commentary in her Instagram stories, writing '🤦🏾♀️ stay safe out there ⚠️.' Reps for Turner-Smith and Jackson did not immediately return HuffPost's requests for comment. The former couple married in December 2019, one year after meeting at Usher's 40th birthday party. Juno was born in April 2020. Turner-Smith would go on to file for divorce in October 2023, citing 'irreconcilable differences.' The 'Queen & Slim' actor previously shared that she doesn't view the two's marriage ending as a 'failure.' 'Sometimes things we really want to work just don't end up working. And that's OK,' she told the U.K.'s Sunday Times in an interview published in 2024. 'The most important thing is that you choose what's healthiest for you and your family and definitely your children.' Turner-Smith later shared that the former couple were going through an 'adjustment period' as they learned how to co-parent. 'Nobody hands you a manual,' the actor said in a candid chat with Glamour U.K. last year. 'Everyone's trying to figure it out. Each parent has a different life, and especially if the reason why you're splitting up is because you have different lives, it's only further complicated by how you're going to coparent.'
