Joe Jonas insists he isn't trying to "come for anyone" with his new album and says he still has a "beautiful life" despite his recent divorce.

The 35-year-old singer, who was married to Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner from 2019 until 2023, said he is still "grateful" for what he has today.

Speaking to Billboard, the former Disney Channel star said: "It was scary at times, and also freeing. I'm not trying to come for anyone on this album. I’m not trying to put stuff on blast.

"I have a beautiful life that I’m grateful for. I’ve got two beautiful kids. I’m a happy person, and the music needed to resemble that — but also, the journey to get here."

Jonas said he hopes his new album can "help" anyone who is going through a difficult time.

He said: "At the core of it, if this body of work helps people through what they're going through, that’s all I can really wish for.

In September, Jonas and Turner released a joint statement confirming their divorce, saying they had decided to "amicably end our marriage".

"After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage.

"There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children."

Turner recently admitted that she was unsure if she would ever make it through her divorce amid major scrutiny from around the world.

She told British Vogue magazine: "There were some days that I didn't know if I was going to make it. I would call my lawyer saying, 'I can’t do this. I just can’t.’

"I was just never strong enough to stand up for myself. And then, finally, after two weeks of me being in a rut, she reminded me that it was my children I was fighting for.

"Once anyone says to me, ‘Do it for your kids,’ I’m doing it. I wouldn’t do it for myself, but I’ll find the strength for them."
