Taylor Swift isn’t the only major player who appears to be throwing their support behind Sophie Turner, the Game of Thrones star whose unraveling marriage to once and future Brother Joe Jonas has everyone on their best behavior in front of the doorbell camera. An onscreen antagonist of Turner’s has taken a public stand in the divorce, seemingly choosing Sophie’s side in the parting.
It all began when author, social commentator, and Channing Tatum collaborator Roxane Gay shared her thoughts on the latest news on the Turner/Jonas split, including details from Turner’s recent custody filing. “The way Joe Jonas miscalculated his popularity with his transparent attempts at PR manipulation, particularly when the North remembers, is FASCINATING,” Gay tweeted to her 877.2K followers on X (formerly Twitter).

“And holding the children’s passports to keep them from their mother? Bruh,” she said, an apparent response to Turner’s Thursday filing in Manhattan court, in which her attorney alleged that “The Father has possession of the children’s passports. He refuses to return the passports to the Mother and refuses to send the children home to England with the Mother.”
Gay followed up that tweet, acknowledging that “these are not people I know or follow,” but that Jonas “has handled this SO badly that now I’m paying attention.”

Someone who does know the former couple is Jessica Chastain, who co-starred in the 2019 X-Men movie Dark Phoenix with Turner. But though Chastain played Vuk, a villain who faced off against Turner’s arguably heroic Jean Grey, in reality the actors appeared to be friendly, with a bond chronicled by publications like BuzzFeed.
It’s a friendship that Chastain put on center stage Friday, when she quote-tweeted Gay’s observations and referred to the author as “The Oracle.” Unlike Swift, who has appeared in public with Turner twice this week, the 46-year-old Oscar winner doesn’t have any past romantic history with Jonas that we’re aware of, though some outlets suggest she might have attended the pair’s July 2019 wedding ceremony.
