00:00 Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner are on the brink of a co-parenting agreement amid their divorce.
00:07 Court documents obtained by E! News on October 10th state that the former couple believe
00:13 an amicable resolution on all issues between them is forthcoming.
00:19 They've also reached a temporary custody agreement of their two daughters, including
00:24 three-year-old Willa and their 14-month-old, whose initials have been revealed as DMJ.
00:31 The temp agreement lays out how the A-listers will split time with their kids over the coming
00:36 weeks and holidays.
00:38 Sophie, who currently has the girls with her, is permitted to travel with them to the UK
00:43 from October 9th through the 21st.
00:46 When she must return to the U.S., Joe then takes the girls through November 2nd.
00:52 Later in the month, it appears Joe will take the kids for Thanksgiving, and they'll be
00:56 with Sophie for the Christmas and New Year's holidays.
01:00 The court docs note that the looming agreement was struck due to the ongoing and productive
01:05 nature of mediation.
01:07 E! News has reached out to reps for both parties for comment, but has not yet heard back.
01:13 Sophie previously served Joe with a lawsuit, quote, "as a result of the wrongful retention
01:19 of their kids."
01:21 According to court documents previously obtained by E! News, the Dark Phoenix star, who is
01:26 a UK citizen, alleged, quote, "wrongful retention of the children" began on or about September
01:33 20th, and said that Joe refused to return the passports to the mother and refuses to
01:39 send the children home to England with the mother.
01:42 A rep for Joe slammed the lawsuit, telling E! News if he obliged with Sophie's request,
01:49 the Jonas Brothers star would be in violation of a Florida court order.
01:54 Miami is where Joe filed for divorce.
01:57 The star's rep added at the time, "This is an unfortunate legal disagreement about a
02:01 marriage that is sadly ending," adding his only concern is the well-being of his children.
02:07 At the time, Sophie's camp did not respond to E! News' request for comment.
02:13 The former couple confirmed their split in a joint statement on September 6th, writing
02:19 "After four wonderful years of marriage, we have mutually decided to amicably end our
02:25 marriage.
02:26 There are many speculative narratives as to why, but truly this is a united decision,
02:31 and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children."
02:38 The couple is set to return to their home state of Florida on September 6th.
