3 months after reaching a custody agreement, Sophie Turner withdraws her ‘wrongful retention’ claim against Joe Jonas

The court dismissed the “wrongful retention” lawsuit filed by the ‘Game of Thrones’ star against the singer, with whom she shares two daughters, on Wednesday.

Sophie Turner has withdrawn the allegations of “wrongful retention” against Joe Jonas, her estranged spouse, concerning the shared custody of their two daughters.

A U.S. judge, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE on Wednesday, granted permission to dismiss the lawsuit after both celebrities signed a consent plan that a U.K. judge had authorized the previous week.

Turner, age 27, filed a lawsuit against Jonas for unlawful retention in September of last year. She claimed that Jonas, 34, prevented the return of their daughters to England by concealing their passports. The former couple is the guardian of two children, Willa, 3, and Delphine, 18 months. “The immediate return of children wrongfully removed or wrongfully retained,” according to the complaint against the musician, was demanded. Turner’s legal team claimed that the “wrongful retention” commenced on September 20.

Jonas and Turner reached a settlement on Wednesday to discharge the lawsuit “with prejudice, and without attorneys’ fees, expenses, costs, and/or disbursements awarded to either party” subsequent to the January 11 approval of their parenting agreement in the United Kingdom.
