It’s not easy being Joe Jonas these days.

Divorce is hard for everyone, but the pop star is not only in the public eye, but he’s currently out on tour. So keeping out of the spotlight is logistically impossible.

If you’re living under a rock, here’s an update: Jonas filed to dissolve his marriage with Sophie Turner in Miami-Dade County last week and the rumor mill is working overtime.

The Internet seems to think a lot of things. Trolls came up with myriad reasons why their blessed four-year union was coming to an end. One theory was that Turner, 27, was a “party girl” who didn’t want to be tied down to married life.

Other sources told TMZ that Jonas, 34, saw or heard something damning on their doorbell cam, and that was the final straw.

What went on behind closed doors we don’t know (although we are really, um, Jonesing for some tawdry outlet to release the footage).

Since their dual D-word announcement on social media, Jonas for his part has been staying mum. Until Saturday night.

At the Jonas Brothers concert at Dodger Stadium in L.A., the “Cake by the Ocean” crooner admitted to his fans that it had been a “tough week.”

“I just wanna say: Look, if you don’t hear it from these lips, don’t believe it, OK?” he said to applause and cheers. “Thank you everyone for your love and support. Me and my family love you guys.”

Despite his hectic travel schedule, Jonas is reportedly with the couple’s two daughters while Turner shoots her new series “Joan” in her native England. So we get that it’s a tough situation all around.

At least the soon to be coparents are well off financially. The pop star and “Game of Thrones” fave made a tidy profit when they flipped their Bay Point mansion after owning it for just two years. The exes bought the waterfront pad in September 2021 for approximately $11 million. Soon after revamping the six bedroom, 8.5 bath waterfront mansion, they sold the “Cali meets Bali” hideaway for a cool $15M.

Still want more gossip about this high profile marriage going up in flames? Those who crave more commentary in the flesh from Jonas can buy a ticket to one of his upcoming shows: The “Camp Rock” vet and his cute siblings bring their tour to Florida, starting next month.

Note to locals: The family trio hit Miami’s Kaseya Center Oct. 14.
