Sophie Turner Shares the Dating Habit She’s “Not Proud Of”

Sophie Turner sheepishly admitted that she’s “not proud of” her tendency to ghost people after a date: “I do like to do that quite a lot.”

Ghost is not just the name of a direwolf in Game of Thrones.

After all, Sophie Turner confessed to being a “big ghoster” when it comes to dating IRL.

“That is actually what I do all the time,” the actress admitted in a BuzzFeed video published on Aug. 21. “I’m not proud of that, but I do like to do that quite a lot.”

Explaining that not texting back “gives me a sense of power,” she jokingly added, “I just need to work on that in therapy.”

But that doesn’t mean Sophie—who was last linked to British aristocrat Peregrine Pearson—hates the dating scene. In fact, she knows just where to go for the perfect night out in London.

“I’d probably take you to this amazing restaurant in Covent Garden called Maggiore,” she shared. “It’s so romantic. It’s got flowers all over the ceiling.”

And after karaoke at Moyagi in the Soho neighborhood, the 29-year-old said with a wink, “We’d go for drinks at The Devonshire to finish, and then back to mine.”

And Sophie will not stand for anyone spoiling a good time. Recently, the Trust star clapped back at a critic who said she’s “forgotten that she has two kids” when she went to an Oasis concert with friends.

“Ah I’m so sorry sometimes I forget some people can’t think for themselves,” Sophie—who shares daughters Willa, 5, and Delphine, 3, with ex-husband Joe Jonas—sarcastically responded on Instagram. “So…Get this…There’s this crazy thing called shared custody.”

She added, “Maybe, just maybe, they were with their dad that day.”

 

Indeed, Sophie and Joe, 36, have developed what he calls a “beautiful co-parenting relationship.”

“As young girls, looking up to great women is what I want for them,” the Jonas Brothers singer said of his kids during a May appearance on Jay Shetty‘s On Purpose Live Tour in Hollywood, Fla. “Having an incredible mom, Sophie, for those girls is like a dream come true.”

Ready for a Comeback

Just weeks after Sophie Turner confirmed her split from Joe Jonas after four years of marriage in September 2023, the Game of Thrones alum shook her breakup off with a girls night out alongside pal Taylor Swift in New York City.

Divorce Drama

After the former couple filed for divorce, their legal battle became thorny, with the Do Revenge actress filing a lawsuit against the musician over their two kids Willa Jonas and Delphine Jonas to be returned to England. (Joe’s rep slammed the suit as “misleading.”) However, the pair reached a temporary agreement that October.

Moving On

Later that month, Sophie signaled that perhaps a new relationship was coming—and moved on to a new chapter in her personal life.

In fact, she began dating British aristocrat Peregrine Pearson, with whom she was photographed engaging in PDA during a Paris trip.

Ready to embrace a new year with a new lease on life, Sophie declared in January 2024 that the previous year was “the year of girlies,” adding that the forecast for the year ahead instead “is looking fairly consistent.”

Another Me

By spring 2024, the mom of two had left her drama with Joe behind.

“I’m unhappy with the way everything played out, especially when it comes to my children,” she told British Vogue in May 2024. “They’re the victims in all of this. But I think we’re doing the best we can. I’m confident that we can figure it out. Joe is a great father to our children and that’s all that I can ask for.”

Friendly Exes

In September 2024, Sophie and Joe finalized their divorce

Joe later shared that he and Sophie have become friendly, developing a “beautiful co-parenting relationship” for their daughters.

“As young girls, looking up to great women is what I want for them,” the Jonas Brothers singer during a May 2025 appearance on Jay Shetty‘s On Purpose Live Tour in Hollywood, Fla. “Having an incredible mom, Sophie, for those girls is like a dream come true.”
