Jodie Turner-Smith has filed for divorce from Joshua Jackson after four years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences.
Turner-Smith, 37, cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split, according to court documents obtained by Us. Their date of separation was listed as September 13.
Per the court documents, Turner-Smith is looking for joint custody of their 3-year-old daughter and wants to take spousal support off the table.
TMZ was first to report the news.
Speculation that the pair were on the rocks began in September when eagle-eyed fans noticed that Jackson and Turner-Smith no longer followed each other on Instagram. At the time, the twosome had each posted an ad featuring them as a couple but failed to reference one another in their respective captions. The supposed snubs raised eyebrows after the duo’s long history of interacting on the platform. They later refollowed each other on the social media app.
The Dawson’s Creek alum and the British actress were first linked in October 2018 when they were seen packing on the PDA during Usher’s 40th birthday party. While Turner-Smith later referred to the night as a “one-night stand” while on Late Night With Seth Meyers in 2021, a source exclusively told Us at the time that the duo looked “super smitten” with one another and “danced the whole night.” One month later, they were seen holding hands while out on a casual date in Los Angeles.
The pair soon took their relationship to the next level. In August 2019, the lovebirds were spotted leaving a California courthouse with what appeared to be a marriage license. Just three months later, the After Yang star was spotted donning a diamond ring on her left hand while walking the red carpet for the premiere of her film Queen & Slim. Jackson, for his part, was seen wearing a gold band on his ring finger.
In December 2019, Us broke the news that the two had secretly tied the knot and were expecting their first child. A source exclusively revealed to Us at the time that the Canada native was “so supportive of Jodie and loves to cheer her on.”
