To answer the question: nope. He needs to stay quiet, get the divorce finalized, and hope we all forget how he tried to throw his far more interesting and well-liked spouse under the bus.
What gets me about this situation is that he seems to have grossly overestimated his own appeal. A lot of the general good will people had for him wasn’t about HIM or even the Jonas Brothers, it was about HER. People liked Sophie, thought she was cool, and were willing to like him because they were seemingly happy and in love and settled.
Anyway, I’m cracking up at this photo and think this is an excellent use of Taylor’s pettiness. This is FUN.
This is why I love the internet. These photos made me so excited and no one in my real life cares at all. I went straight to Reddit and screamed on the taylor swidt subreddit there and now I can scream here: this is just pure gossip! Pure, petty, full of drama Taylor! I hope she never changes.
I love that in the face of all of Joe Jonas' PR stunts, Sophie didn't say a word the entire time and let that blow up in his face. And by appearing with Taylor Swift, she continues to not have to say a word. For Joe to say anything now in response would only make things worse for him.
And I was never a fan of TS' original squad days, but I do love these two appearing in public together. "A mutually beneficial counteroffensive" is a perfect way to describe it.
This is pitch perfect pettiness (I mean that as a compliment) and I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT.
Now I am gossip genie-ing a JJ diss track from the vault so the squad can have a dance routine go viral on TikTok.
Also, Taylor was spotted wearing an opal necklace, which is the birthstone of Travis Kelce. I kinda thought the Swifties were reaching but maybe it was actually another Taylor Easter egg.
What I love about this is women supporting women. It's Allyship. We've been conditioned for many generations to be jealous of one another. That's changing dramatically and quickly in the latest generations of women, and I love it.
As a gen X woman I never put much thought into supporting businesses run by women, etc. I also didn't think about specifically supporting women in the workplace. Now I'm much more conscious of the choices I'm making personally and professionally to give other women a hand up, a shoulder to lean on, or a supportive voice. The Taylor/Sophie example is small in many ways, but yet so huge as an eye catching example of female support. I'm dually impressed, hats off to Taylor and gods speed Queen of the North. I think you're rising above the noise gracefully and powerfully!
A) I was waiting for Taylor to deploy this and I love that she delivered.
B) I want her to take it up a notch and release a hangout pic of Sophie with her kids and Blake with hers. Stickers over the kids' faces, but give Sophie mom optics + allies.
C) bless his heart, Travis has a rogue relative...........
Joe is horrible for how he handled his PR and I'm glad it backfired on him. I like Sophie but can't help being little dissapointed in any woman who befriends Taylor after her squad days. And I don't particularly care about Katy but I don't like seeing people being publicly bullied.
This might be off-thread since it is really more about the divorce itself but I'm sooo curious about the timing of everything - with them buying a house in December, still planning a move as late as the spring/early summer, and then "getting into a fight" in August and suddenly Joe is filing for divorce. I suppose it's possible that they are just pulling the plug because there had been longer term issues and the separation while she was filming/he was on tour was evidence that time apart was better than time together, BUT, the conspiracist in me says that something else was clearly going on (e.g., another relationship) and someone found out in August - prompting the divorce proceedings. Tbh I think it could go either way, but I find the way Joe's pr team was trying to get out in front of the court of public opinion to be suspicious that he was actually the one in the wrong.
I was struck by the comment that Joe has much more money than Sophie. Logically it makes sense, but it still caught me off guard. But Taylor is influence money can’t buy!
Should Joe even bother?
Gah! I forgot to say this point in my post: the fact that BOTH their exes are called JOE!
Also Taylor is single-handedly supporting paps (and blogs) everywhere with her dinner tour.

We all know Taylor is petty, and this is the BEST KIND of pettiness! Living for it.
Taylor Swift is so good for gossip! I am loving this. Joe needs to sit down. All hail the Queen of the North!

This is the kind of petty I LOVE! Joe doesn’t understand what he’s unleashed lol

Am I just an Old now or has the squad fashion been horrendous? I love everything about this except the outfits.
I saw a video of someone calling him Joffrey Jonas and I actually screamed 😂

Yikes - his terrible strategy makes more sense after her filing. Hoping the Queen of the North has her receipts
I don’t want to hear anything from JJ unless its a Joe Jonas/Joe Alwyn pap walk 😂
At this point, I'm all Joe Who? How dare he mess with the Queen of the North. Puhleez.

Q m
Taylor is one busy woman. Between her and the Queen Bey, they rule the world❤️ P.S. LOVED this!!!!
When I saw these pictures, I literally squealed with surprised delight. This was just perfect. Sophie doesn’t need to say a thing.
