Weeks after it was revealed Joe Jonas had filed for divorce from actress Sophie Turner, the fight doesn’t seem to be over.

People magazine reports the latest battle is over who will have custody of their young children and where they will live.

According to the outlet, Turner has filed a lawsuit in a Manhattan court requesting they be returned to England.

Court documents obtained by the magazine say that the “Game of Thrones” actress is calling for “the immediate return of children wrongfully removed or wrongfully retained.” The documents claim this “wrongful retention” began around Sept. 20.

She also alleges she and the singer agreed in late 2022 that England would be their “forever home.” The documents say the couple sold their home in Miami and were in the process of buying a home in the English countryside in April.

When Jonas started touring with his brothers, the couple agreed to let their daughters join him, because Turner was busy shooting the “very intense” series “Joan.” However, the documents allege she had “some hesitation” about it, according to TMZ.

The actress said the plan was to finish filming and then come to New York to get the kids and return to England.

She also claims the marriage dissolved “very suddenly” after a fight on Aug. 15. She said she learned Jonas had filed for divorce on Sept. 5 “from the media.”

When the pair met up recently to talk about the next steps of their split, the petition said Turner once again mentioned her plan of taking the girls back to England. From there, Jonas apparently had changed his mind.

“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,” the lawsuit claims.

They share a 3-year-old daughter Willa and a 1-year-old daughter whose name has not been publicly revealed.

The couple married in 2019 after they started dating in 2016.
