00:00 Joe Jonas is doing the right thing amid his divorce from Sophie Turner.
00:05 A new pic posted on the singer's Instagram account shows the 34-year-old in front of
00:10 a mirror with an affirmation written on the rim.
00:13 It reads, "What do you want them to feel?"
00:16 On the mirror itself, the text reads, "I am at the right place at the right time doing
00:21 the right thing."
00:22 The cryptic post comes just days after Joe and his ex, Sophie Turner, reached a deal
00:29 over their custody dispute amid their divorce.
00:32 The former couple released a joint statement obtained by E! News on October 10th that reads,
00:37 "After a productive and successful mediation, we have agreed that the children will spend
00:43 time equally in loving homes in both the U.S. and the U.K.
00:48 They add we look forward to being great co-parents."
00:52 Court documents obtained by E! News on October 10th lay out Joe and Sophie's amicable resolution
00:57 regarding temporary custody of their two daughters, three-year-old Willa and their 14-month-old,
01:04 whose initials have been revealed as DMJ.
01:07 Sophie, who currently has the girls with her, is permitted to travel with them to the U.K.
01:13 from October 9th through the 21st, when she must return to the U.S.
01:17 Joe then takes the girls through November 2nd.
01:20 Later in the month, it appears the Jonas brother will take the kids for Thanksgiving and they'll
01:25 be with the Game of Thrones alum for the Christmas and New Year's holidays.
01:30 The court docs note that the agreement was struck due to the ongoing and productive nature
01:34 of mediation.
01:35 E! News has reached out to reps for both parties for comment but has not yet heard back.
01:41 Sophie previously served Joe with a lawsuit, quote, "as a result of the wrongful retention
01:47 of their kids."
01:48 According to court docs previously obtained by E! News, the Dark Phoenix star, who is
01:53 a U.K. citizen, alleged, quote, "wrongful retention of the children" began on or about
01:58 September 20th, saying that Joe refused to return the passports to the mother and refuses
02:03 to send the children home to England with the mother.
02:06 A rep for Joe slammed the lawsuit, telling E! News that if Joe obliged with Sophie's
02:11 request, he would be in violation of a Florida court order.
02:15 Miami, Florida is where Joe filed for divorce.
02:19 The singer's rep added, "This is an unfortunate legal disagreement about a marriage that is
02:23 sadly ending," adding his only concern is the well-being of his children.
02:28 At the time, Sophie's camp did not respond to E! News' request for comment.
02:33 Joe and Sophie confirmed their split in a joint statement on September 6th, writing,
02:38 "After four wonderful years of marriage, we have mutually decided to amicably end our
02:43 marriage."
02:44 There are many speculative narratives as to why, but truly, this is a united decision,
02:49 and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.
